Celeste led to me discovering I was trans before it was canonically confirmed a trans game so yea it's a pretty great trans game

I was actually reflecting on this with another trans friend who had their egg cracking moment around the same time as me. I played Celeste in January 2018 and by the end of the year I was pretty sure I was trans. It still took me awhile to accept. I only started medical transition last year. But looking back, the people and communities I was introduced to because I loved that game are what helped me finnally see it, and then give me the strength to start my "climb" eventually. When I was ready. It makes me really happy to reflect on.
