CHRISTMAS IS CANCELLED!!

LDSS_lobby_credits=
Hello there! It's me, Ratsune Squeaku, I'm here to deliver you the lobby credits!

This lobby was built almost in its entirety by Hexalia, our goat, including recolouring tiles.

Seriously this collab would be dead in the water without her, we all cannot thank her enough.

A big thank you to anilmky for the wood tileset, and a big thank you to Spooooky for many of the decals used, it helped bring this lobby to life! 

A big thank you to Skqw for merging this all, despite everyone messing up at least one part of the file pathing each.

He also helped with organising, deadlines, and keeping up with everyone and checking in, we couldn't have done this without him too.

I also helped with the lobby, woweee, I did a lot of the little miscellaneous things, as well as decorating the walk up to the heart!

So like, if you don't like that area then. Well. Ouch... But in all seriousness, thank you to Leah for sorting out the colorgrade stuff there because.

Oh my god I hate colorgrade triggers they are so tempermental they don't work I swear.

Thank you to Chelito for doing the cutscene leading up to heart!

It was a little wack to get working, but thank you for sticking to it, it ended up looking awesome!!

Thank you to UKiran for the pedestals, they look wonderful and helped tie the lobby together very nicely.

Also, technically not in the lobby, but thank you again to UKiran for the making the overworld look as awesome as it does!

The icon and especially the 3d tree and presents are so, so sick!!

Also shoutout to BadTie for being dumb and stupid and dumb!!!!!!!!!! Fuck you this is staying in!!!!

(Love you, you're awesome :happylandeline:)

I believe that's it for those who helped with the lobby, but also a big thanks to you, for playing!

This was a very ambitious passion project, and the fact that you're here playing it is honestly so surreal.

From the whole LDSS team, thank you, and we hope you enjoy!

Rat, over and out!

There is a sign here.
You take a closer look.
{#808080}In this map, you can only get a maximum of 1 extra jump from a refill at a time.
On top of that, outline textured spikes will NOT kill you if you stand on them, but they will stop you from regaining your dash.{\#}

LDSS_BADTIE_FANCELPOG=
There is a sign here.
You take a closer look.
{#808080}A Feather's hitbox is different from a Player's.
If you cancel the Feather state by hitting a spring, the feather hitbox persists, allowing you to do some weird stuff with it.
This is known as Feather Hitbox Preservation.
Here, do an Ultra onto the feather, then buffer an up dash as you hit the springs. You will get stuck in the ceiling.
Since being inside tiles counts as being grounded, you will regain your dash.
This allows you to do things like Hypers on the ceiling.
Happy Feathering!{\#}

		Wakey wakey!
	[MADELINE left sad]
		...Theo?
	[MADELINE left upset]
		Oh no. Where are we?
	[THEO right thinking]
		Soooooo do you remember when I got in trouble for tax fraud with the government?
	[THEO right wtf]
		They're calling in a favor. And there's no way I can do it myself.
	[MADELINE left upset]
		I don't see the part where this is my problem.
	[MADELINE left sad]
		And why is it so dull in here?
	[THEO right serious]
		That's part of why I brought you here, apparently its because something called the {#a705fe}Heart of True Love{#} got stolen by a bunch of thieves.
		Apparently it's some mystical artifact that holds the world together, and if we want to avoid jail time or the destruction of the world. We have to get it back.
	[MADELINE left angry]
		So you got in trouble with the government, got in over your head, and now I have to bail you out???
	[THEO right wtf]
		I mean, they have you in for countless speeding tickets as well... so neither of us are really safe here.
	[MADELINE left distracted]
		Oh yeah. Chained ultras do give me a lot of those... Well what's the plan then?
	[THEO right normal]
		We're currently situated just outside of the range of one of the gang's airships. Drop is in T minus, now.
	[MADELINE left surprised]
		Wait!! How will I know what the {#a705fe}Heart of True Love{#} looks like?? I see them all the time!
	[THEO right excited]
		You'll know it when you see it!
	[THEO right yolo]
		Good luck girl!

		Yo Waddup. Merry Chrimbus SP! Hope you enjoy your map~ Just as a heads up though...
		If you grab a heart before it respawns and keep holding it until it does. It loses it's properties as a heart.
		I'll be deadass I don't know how to fix this so it's a feature now.
		Anyways enjoy!!!! 

YoWaddup2=
	[GIGA right normal]
		You ready to learn some wacky fuckin tech?
		Letting go of a throwable while it's partially obscured in a ceiling above you will cause it to snap to the nearest open air below it, letting you heart bounce.
		{~}If it gets stuck in the ceiling above you, you did it too high. Make sure you're constantly holding forward to get the best bounce.{/~}
		Watch the caution tape! If the heart outline touches it, it'll get stuck.

		It wasn't like this before.

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		I don't know what you're talking about. {n}It looks normal to me.

	[BADELINE right angryAlt]

	[BADELINE right yell]
		Why are you so hell-bent on this?

		Great. I'll just commit to being a liar and a cheat for the rest of my life then.

	[BADELINE right angryAlt]
		{+MADELINE}, they don't {!}just{/!} look up to you because you can put up a good facade. 

	[BADELINE right upset]
		You hold your own under pressure. You know how to manage a team. 

	[BADELINE right normal]

	[MADELINE left upset]
		No. What I {0.2}{!}am{/!}{0.1} is one mistake away from {n}{*}messing everything up{/*}.

		Oh, {+MADELINE}, she worries about you because she loves you.

	[MADELINE left upset]
		Well she's been treating me exactly how you've been treating me today.
		She's frustrated with me because of how stubborn I am.

	[BADELINE right angryAlt]
		Yeah, I'd say she's onto something.

	[BADELINE right upset]
		You can work on that, though. After all, you stopped and listened to me today.

	[MADELINE left sad]
		I feel like I've already caused us so many fights just over me just... {0.7}refusing to accept compliments.

	[BADELINE right upset]
		Well, maybe that's true.

	[BADELINE right normal]
		But you know you can work on that, right?
		
	[MADELINE left distracted]
		...
	
	[BADELINE right simple_sigh]
		Let me put it another way. 
		She has her share of problems too, right?

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		I guess so. But I don't see how that relates...

	[BADELINE right upset]
		She's imperfect, just like you. 
		But at the end of the day, you have patience for her and you work through it together, right? Because you love her.

	[MADELINE left sad]
		...

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		Yeah. I do.

	[BADELINE right normal]
		You can't expect yourself to be perfect all of the time for her. 

		Love is a promise that whenever you mess up, you'll make an effort to do better. 

		A commitment to growing and learning alongside your partner and working on your flaws together. 

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		...

	[MADELINE left sad]
		You're right. 

		I think I owe her an apology. 

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		I need to stop downplaying my own achievements and telling myself I'm not worthy.

		And I need to trust her more when she tells me I've earned this.

		...{0.5}I owe you one, too.

		I should have stopped to listen to you long before we got ourselves into this mess.

	[BADELINE right worriedAlt]
		I'm sorry for blowing up at you, earlier.

		And for insulting you. 

	[BADELINE right worried]
		I said things I didn't mean because I got frustrated. 

	[MADELINE left sad]
		I forgive you.

	[MADELINE left normal]
		Call it a truce?

	[BADELINE right normal]
		Sure.

		Ah. 

	[MADELINE left sad]
		Why did you encourage me to keep climbing back there?

		You were so against this earlier.

	[BADELINE right normal]
		Because I know you hate to give up.

		And I know you're capable of making it through anything.

	Hi Bad! {#FF0000}{~}Chelito{/~}{#} here.

 	Congrats on making it through!

	And if you are not BadTie, welcome anyways! This message is also for you.

	This map was the product of months of work and effort to make something I felt truly proud of.
	
	It was also my first time making a Summit map! Why was this so hard lmao idk how you make these so easily for your maps.

	As you can see, the map had a ton of story, and this is not something I made up for this map.

	The events in this story are closely based on my own experiences during a low point in my life.

	What pulled me out of it and helped me move forwards was my Friends: You, Rat, Leah, my irl friends, every single one of you has helped me inmensely.

	I dont think I would even be part of this community anymore without the support and love everyone has shown me repeatedly during these years.

	So thank you, thank you for being my friend.

	And if we havent met before, person reading this dialogue, send me a dm! I love talking with people and making new friends.

	Well! I have held you here long enough, go and finish the map.

	Chelito out.

cutscene1= Why am I here?
What am I doing?
I don't remember a single thing...
This place feels familiar, but I can't put my finger on why.
And what are those... Things... Scattered around.
They feel alive.
I hate looking at them, and I don't know why.
I guess there's no choice other than to just move forward...
cutscene2= is that... me?
cutscene3= Doctor ****, we have some interesting findings from our latest lunar expedition.
We believe you are the perfect fit for the job.
You are the only one with both the proper training to keep yourself alive if any of your equipment malfunctions and the physical capabilities needed to exploring this cavern.
This place is unnatural, and we need to learn more about how it came to be.
Go in, collect all the information you can, and get out.
Don't push yourself too far, we don't know what will happen down there.
Be careful.
(Hold right)
cutscene4= How many times have I relived this expedition in my head?
How long has it been since I've fallen in this pit?
Everything hurts...
I can't let myself die thinking about how this could have gone differently... I need to push forward.
I need to find a way out.
No matter how much it hurts.
Just breathe...
(Hold right)
cutscene5= It had been several hours since Madeline last responded
A rescue team had been sent to find her
Just as they landed on the Moon's surface, she emerged from the cavern, and immediately collapsed
They managed to resuscitate her inside the shuttle and treat her wounds
Miraculously, her EVA suit wasn't damaged
If it was, she would have been gone long ago
The video footage she gathered while exploring the cavern was enough to consider the expedition successful
Madeline will return home safely
cutscene6= (This message is specifically for Iosun, so if you're not her, feel free to skip)
(Or you can read it if you really feel like it, you have free will)
Hi Iosun, I hope you enjoyed the map!
I know I had lots of fun making it, I really loved the prompt
Very unique one to be sure
There were some headaches in the creation process for sure, but overall it was a positive experience
I'm not sure if this is what you had in mind when you wrote up your prompt, I did take some creative liberties for sure lol
Also, this is my first attempt writing anything for any Celeste map, I apologize for all of the rough edges
(I really should have learned how to make lua cutscenes lol)
Anyways I don't have much else to say, collect your funny heart and be on your way :3

pain1= [MADELINE right panic] Ow...
pain2= [MADELINE right panic] Why did this have to happen to me?!
pain3= [MADELINE right panic] Please get me out.

Hello!
[MADELINE left normal]
Hi!
I'm here for the golf course.
[THEO right normal]
Ah, of course! Do you have friends arriving? Or are you just here for some solo practice?
[MADELINE left normal]
Just practice.
[MADELINE left distracted]
My friends challenged me to a game of golf a week from now, and I'd like to at least stand a chance.
[THEO right nailedit]
Sounds exciting!
[THEO right normal]
I'll grab you a golf ball and a club, just wait one moment.
[MADELINE left peaceful]
Okay!
[THEO right thinking]
...
That's weird.
I guess the last visitors must have left the ball in the hole.
[THEO right wtf]
People can be pretty lazy, huh.
Would you mind going to get it for me?
[MADELINE left normal]
Sure! I'll be right back.

LDSS_LuukasM_Theodialogue2=
[MADELINE left sad]
Hello?
[THEO right serious]
What?
Oh, it's you!
[THEO right worried]
I was worried about you.
[THEO right wtf]
You know it's almost midnight, right?
[MADELINE left sadder]
Yeah, I'm aware. I... I don't know what happened.
[MADELINE left distracted]
I think I fell into the golf hole, I must have hit my head on something.
I had the craziest dream.
[THEO right excited]
Well, I'm glad you're back. 
[THEO right normal]
On a normal day I'd have gone home by now, but I really wanted to make sure you got back safely.
[MADELINE left distracted]
I really appreciate you doing that for me.
I just wish I wasn't so clumsy.
[THEO right thinking]
It happens to the best of us, no need to be embarrassed about it.
[MADELINE left normal]
Thanks.
I'm Madeline, by the way.
I realized I forgot to introduce myself.
[THEO right normal]
It's nice to meet you, Madeline!
I'm Robert.
[MADELINE left distracted]
I'm gonna head home.
I'll probably come back some time soon, since I didn't actually get any practice in.
See you then!

Alright, here we are, finally on the scene.

[MADELINE left distracted]
{~}*ahem*{/~}

[MADELINE left sad]
This is agent M4D3L1N3, codename {+MADELINE}, reporting from the site of {+ANOMALY} 13519195147518.

[MADELINE left distracted]
There have been no direct sightings of the {+ANOMALY} just yet- Venturing into the forest deeper seems difficult, but possible.

[MADELINE left sad]
I will report back once I see anything that matches up with our readings. For now, {+MADELINE} out.

[MADELINE left distracted]
...Alright, log sent. Time to get moving.

LDSS_Ratsune_eltyraintro=
[MADELINE left sad]
Alright, these gaps are definitely too far to just dash across-

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
Good thing I always come prepared!

[MADELINE left determined]
{big}{~}Deploying Elytra!{/~}{/big}

[MADELINE left peaceful]
{~}Heh, I always love doing that{/~}

[MADELINE left distracted]
Don't get distracted, {+MADELINE}, we've still gotta find this {+ANOMALY}-

[MADELINE left sad]
These gaps look especially big, I'll need to deploy my wings right after getting a good run up to maximize my speed.

[MADELINE left distracted]
I should double check my Ev3r3st settings to make sure my Elytra deploys when I jump, actually-

LDSS_Ratsune_eltyraintro2=
{~}It is highly recommended that you bind your elytra button (Found in the communal helper section of modded options) to a button that is also bound to jump (Not your main jump button).{/~}
{~}It will help with a lot of the quicker moves and speedchecks in this map.{/~}

LDSS_Ratsune_birdgrabgate=

LDSS_Ratsune_grabgate=
[MADELINE left surprised]
{big}{*}WHAT THE!!{/*}{/big}

[MADELINE left surprised]
What- I-

[MADELINE left sad]
I was headed straight for that gate- And then it just moved?

[MADELINE left distracted]
It moved as soon as I braced for impact-

[MADELINE left sad]
Was it because I clenched my fist?

[MADELINE left distracted]
Okay, I have no clue what's happening here- If this has to do with the {+ANOMALY} or not-

[MADELINE left determined]
But I have to keep moving.

[MADELINE left distracted]
I've got to stay on my toes though, this forest is unexplored, and for good reason it seems.

LDSS_Ratsune_cave=
[MADELINE left distracted]
This cave doesn't seem to go too deep- I can still see the surface from here.

[MADELINE left sad]
This is probably my fastest way through, the layer of trees above me is too thick, it'll slow me down far too much.

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
Hopefully it doesn't get too dark- I didn't have space to bring my night vision goggles on this mission!

LDSS_Ratsune_strangecave=
[MADELINE left distracted]
...Hm- Something about this cave seems- Off, somehow.

[MADELINE left sad]
Some of the rocks, I swear they're- Repeating, almost?

[MADELINE left distracted]
Now that I think about it- How are there fully grown trees of this size inside a cave? They do get some sunlight but- There's no way this can be happening naturally.

[MADELINE left sad]
This has to be signs of the {+ANOMALY}, right?

[MADELINE left distracted]
It's not concrete evidence- I don't think I should report back to HQ yet... But I've gotta be close!

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
Okay- I'm almost out of this cave, hopefully I can get a better vantage point and get clear sights on the {+ANOMALY}.

LDSS_Ratsune_ravine1=
[MADELINE left normal]
That tree up there looks like a good place to get a better view from!

LDSS_Ratsune_ravine2=
[MADELINE left distracted]
I still need to be careful though- The readings we got and the weird happenings I've noticed- This {+ANOMALY} is stronger than any I've dealt with before.

[MADELINE left determined]
It's nothing I can't handle though!

LDSS_Ratsune_ravine3=
[MADELINE left surprised]
!!!

LDSS_Ratsune_ravinefall=
[MADELINE left panic]
O-Oh god... This... This is worse than I thought- So- So much worse-

[MADELINE left sad]
I need to contact HQ about this now and get out of here.

[MADELINE left distracted]
...Wait- No-

[MADELINE left surprised]
{*}No no no no!!!{/*}

[MADELINE left panic]
Okay, okay, radio is busted, that's fine- I-it's fine-

[MADELINE left sad]
I- I can use my Elytra to get out! H-hopefully-

[MADELINE left sad]
...

[MADELINE left panic]
You've- You've gotta be kidding me. I can't deploy my Elytra here- I'm stuck here without my most important equipment- I- {*}I-{/*}

[MADELINE left panic]
{*}...{/*}

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
{*}...{/*}

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
O-okay- I can- I can figure this out.

[MADELINE left distracted]
I think- I have to press on.

[MADELINE left sad]
I think I have to find the source of this {+ANOMALY} myself-

[MADELINE left distracted]
...

[MADELINE left panic]
{*} What am I saying? This is way above my paygrade! {/*}

[MADELINE left panic]
{*} I scout things out! I don't have the tools to make it through here! Especially without my Elytra!{/*}

[MADELINE left distracted]
Wait- What's- What's this?

[MADELINE left sad]
It looks like- A sword?

[MADELINE left distracted]
It- Looks important- Almost like it was left here on purpose?

[MADELINE left sad]
I- I guess I'm doing this-

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
I can figure this out. I- I have to.

LDSS_Ratsune_berryinfo=

You see some words etched into the tree bark. 

They seem important.

"Some of the flora here- It's strange how it has adapted to its new environment"

"For example, you might find a strawberry that looks normal, but when you feel it, you'll notice how hard the flesh is, it's almost like a metal shell!"

"Attempting to cut it would likely cause your knife to bounce right off! I'd guess you'd need a hammer to break through it-"

"Interesting, isn't it? How life can find a way and prevail in the strangest of situations?"

LDSS_Ratsune_notoveryet=
[MADELINE left sad]
...Oh no...

[MADELINE left sad]
This... This can't be good-

[MADELINE left panic]
The worlds- They're starting to merge?

[MADELINE left panic]
What if the infection spreading here spreads into our world? The forest would be destroyed- And I doubt it'll stop at just the forest!

[MADELINE left sadder]
Am I- Too late?

[MADELINE left sadder]
...

[MADELINE left panic]
...

[MADELINE left panic]
I- I can't be- The {+ANOMALY} only showed signs so recently!

[MADELINE left panic]
I...

[MADELINE left sadder]
I-I-

[MADELINE left angry]
I did everything I could! I came so far!

[MADELINE left angry]
I-

[MADELINE left sadder]
I failed...

[MADELINE left panic]
I failed.

[MADELINE left sad]
...Wait-

[MADELINE left sad]
The trees- The roots-

[MADELINE left sad]
They're- Fighting back?

[MADELINE left surprised]
They're fighting back!?!

[MADELINE left sad]
But- How? All the trees here- They're all rotted, or dead, or dying- How- How are they managing to fight it?

[MADELINE left distracted]
...

[MADELINE left distracted]
...One of the most common causes of Anomalies is timelines splitting- Is that... What's happening here?

[MADELINE left sad]
The trees and infection are both struggling for control- The {+ANOMALY} must be a result of both the forest and infection being too strong-

[MADELINE left distracted]
The trees refuse to let the infection spread- But the infection is too powerful to be contained.

[MADELINE left sad]
If our timelines are starting to bleed together- Then this war is finally going to end...

[MADELINE left panic]
{*}And it seems as though the infection is winning-{/*}

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
{*}...{/*}

[MADELINE left determined]
{*}I can't give up yet.{/*}

[MADELINE left distracted]
I don't know how long the trees have been fighting for- But I can't let them die out now.

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
This forest is special- It's had protections put in place for a reason-

[MADELINE left determined]
I refuse to let it die!!

[MADELINE left sad]
I need to find the heart of the infection, quickly.

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
Here goes- Well, here goes everything!

LDSS_Ratsune_notbreakingimmersion=
[MADELINE left distracted]
This area- It seems different?

[MADELINE left sad]
It's almost as if- Someone else carved this path?

[MADELINE left distracted]
Hm- Strange.

[MADELINE left determined]
I can still do this!

LDSS_Ratsune_breakingimmersionlmao=

Hey! I didn't want to break the immersion of the story, but I felt it was important to say that this room was made by Geb!

They did an excellent job and I didn't want to leave that unsaid! I highly recommend checking out their other stuff if you like this room!!

Anyways, have fun getting back to saving the forest :3

LDSS_Ratsune_soclose=
[MADELINE left sad]
I- I think I was close- Just across that gap- I- I was right there.

[MADELINE left sadder]
I was so close...

[MADELINE left sadder]
...But I didn't make it-

[MADELINE left panic]
...I- I don't know- If I can make it back there again.

[MADELINE left panic]
...

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
...I have to remember why I'm doing this- What I'm doing this for-

[MADELINE left sad]
I've come all this way-

[MADELINE left determined]
I'm going to see this through, even if I fall short 1000 more times!

[MADELINE left distracted]
...I hope it doesn't quite come to that, though...

LDSS_Ratsune_heart=
[MADELINE left sad]
This- This must be it-

[MADELINE left surprised]
The heart of the infection!!

[MADELINE left sad]
I-

[MADELINE left surprised]
I made it!!!

[MADELINE left distracted]
I can't believe it-

[MADELINE left normal]
I made it!

[MADELINE left distracted]
That was- One hell of a journey-

[MADELINE left peaceful]
But- I pulled through!

[MADELINE left distracted]
Despite this {+ANOMALY} being the worst I've encountered by far-

[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
I managed to get through and stop it!

[MADELINE left distracted]
Okay well- I haven't stopped it yet-

[MADELINE left normal]
Might be a good idea to do that before celebrating.

[MADELINE left determined]
Alright, let's do this!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		{*}Please, I'm not open for music requests right now.
		I have way too much on my plate, with maps and music from exactly 22 projects..
		I haven't seen the sunlight in days..{/*} 

	[MADELINE left sad]
		Oh, well I just saw a flyer for some sort of experiment..
		I can leave if it's a bad time..

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Wait.

		Why didn't you say so?!{/big}
		In that case, welcome aboard! I'm happy to have you as my personal guinea pig!
		
	[MADELINE left distracted]
		Um... suuure...
	[MADELINE left normal]
		Anyways, I've seen all the details on the flyer, and I have to admit it caught my attention.
		This has something to do with weird movement tech?
		
	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Ohhh weird couldn't even begin to describe it, my short red-headed friend.
		I personally like to call it grandiose!
		Thrilling!
		{!}FILLED WITH ADRENALINE INDUCING ACTION!{/!}
		With a minor chance of injury, but what is life without a few risks!
		Lemme pull up the terms of services here...

	[MADELINE left sad]
		Well, uh, when you put it like that.. it does sound a bit worrying..
		.. wait, I'm talking to a speaker phone.
	[MADELINE left upset]
		How the hell do you know I have red hair?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Can't hear you, too busy pulling up the terms of service!
		Ah, here we go!
		{~}ahem{/~}
		"I, blank, hereby acknowledge..-"
		.. uh, what's your name again, shorty?

	[MADELINE left upset]
		{+MADELINE}.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		"I, {+MADELINE}, hereby acknowledge that any injuries, mishaps, or dramatic tumbles are entirely your fault—even if gravity, bad decisions, or rogue furniture were involved-
		—and the establishment shall remain as innocent as possible, because the creator is, quote, 'wholesome and flawless'".

	[MADELINE left surprised]
		What? These terms are outrageous!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		I know, right? I made them myself! Pretty proud of it..
		Glad to know we are on the same page!

	[MADELINE left surprised]
		But I never said that I agreed to these terms!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Oh, but you already did with the form you signed when you walked into the door!

	[MADELINE left upset]
		Should have known that signing wasn't for entry.
	[MADELINE left sad]
		Alright, fine. I guess I agree to them. But is it alright if I may ask what this experiment is going to be like?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Sure thing, sister! With this experiment, I have many variants I want to test movement wise.
		Each room will be experimenting with certain "variants" of movement. But these variants will simultaneously be given to and taken away from you.
		You can equip and de-equip these variants when you walk through the so-called "seeker-barriers," which have a screen next to them indicating what they will do.

	[MADELINE left sad]
		Are these barriers safe?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Uhhhh for the most part!
		I got it down to only a 1.8% chance of you getting first degree burns, but other than that, totally OSHA-approved.

	[MADELINE left surprised]
		FIRST DEGREE BURNS???

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Hey, it used to be third degree, so be thankful!
		Anyways, just go through the rooms using these barriers to assign certain perks to your moveset.
		I'll clarify in each room what variants are being applied to you, as well as provide optional tutorials for you!
		Just click on the intercom for any help you need along the way!

	[MADELINE sad left]
		... alright. I'll get a move on then. I think I got all of it.
	[MADELINE normal left]
		Plus surely it's safe enough to test, right? So let's get this thing started.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		That's the spirit, girl! Glad you're so excited!
		And don't worry, you're in safe hands!
		.. for the most part.
		Anywho, I got to go bang my head against my computer screen in order to get my next melody idea that's due in approximately 38 hours and 6 minutes.
		Press the button when you need me! Yippee!

	[MADELINE left deadpan]
		{0.8}What did I just get myself into.

Freeka_Room1Dialog=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Wait, you made it?
		I mean, {~}wow, congratulations on making it! I knew you were great for the job.{/~}

	[MADELINE left upset]
		Wow. Thanks. Good to know you believe in me.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Why wouldn't I? Teehee-
		Anyways, hope you left your pacifier in the other room, cause this is when we get to the real shit!
		Can I say that word here..? Hold on lemme check the contract..
		.. ok, I can say it a very limited amount of times. Noted!
		So for these upcoming five rooms, you will have two variants that you will be testing that I thought paired really well together.
		This first one introduces hiccups and held dash, and you have to use both variants to traverse this well crafted room by yours truly!

	[MADELINE left sad]
		How are you able to simulate hiccups into people just from a seeker barrier?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		I dunno, skqw explained it to me when he was designing them, but I kinda was just staring at the pretty lightning to the side.
		Oh, another important thing to note! I'm sure you noticed the barrier above us!
		There is one in each room, and it will teleport you to another room that leads you to a bunch of tutorials!
		All the tech used in the room will be explained through these tutorials, and you can press the button in order to get a tech explanation.
		Hope this helps! Gotta get back into music making now. I have decided that it will be in the key of F# minor.
		Pray for my sanity.

Freeka_Room2Dialog=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Wow, maybe you do have what it takes!
		People usually quit after the one inconsistent setup with the pufferfish boost mid hiccup.

	[MADELINE left angry]
		Well you have the power to change it! Why don't you?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Hey, woah, calm down! I'm a busy man, {+MADELINE}!
		I can't be bothered to fix a single fish!

	[MADELINE left upset]
		Ugh... whatever, what do you have next for me.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Alright, alright, I see you're not in the messing around mood.
		Look, I know what will cheer you up! This room coming up is bounce helper and infinite dash!
		I like to think of it as one of those funny arcade games with the bumpers and pinballs.
		I like to reference it as my own Pinball Purgatory! Cool name, isn't it?

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		Well.. I dunno if it sticks..

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Eh, I'll put it in the back of the head and try to think of better names.
		As per usual, tutorials are up there! Gotta get back to my music.
		I think I'm gonna choose a nice EDM vibe..

Freeka_Room3Dialog=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Welcome to trial number three! For this one, you'll want to equip the elytra and nail that I conveniently placed in your back pocket when you weren't looking!

	[MADELINE left surprised]
		HUH??? How did those get in there???

		You know, the cool glitchy map that uses both nail and elytra very smoothly with a challenging twist!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		My lawyers advised me that I do not acknowledge this map in any way, shape, or form.
		So,{0.2} {~}legally,{/~}{0.2} I must say: I have no idea what you're talking about!

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		Oh.. well.. that's too bad I guess..
	[MADELINE left sad]
		{0.3}Wait, isn't this map made for Rat in the first place?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		{big}{*}ANYWAYS{/*}{/big}
		I hope you enjoy this room! It was a lot of fun to make! Because I am the only one who did it for this collab!
		You can equip these binds when you open Mod Options in your pause menu. You can search Mods to find the settings under the "Communal Helper" and "Kelper" sections.
		Same deal for tutorials! Gotta bounce! I have a melody idea for what I want to get on paper before my ADHD makes me lock in on Mario Kart World again.

		Hey, {+MADELINE}, you know what makes up the best gameplay?

	[MADELINE left normal]
		Ohhh, I actually really do love some good tech spams!
		Something that really challenges you with supers and bunny hops, with maybe an ultra thrown in there.
		I think that it could be fun to throw in some neutrals as well!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Wrong answer! Speed gameplay!

	[MADELINE left upset]
		Oh. I didn't know you were one of {!}those{/!} people.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		With this room in particular, you will combine the aspects of Superdash with No Friction!
		And one important thing to note, I maaaay have genetically modified the pufferfish here to preserve your speed after you boost all of them.
		This room is rather short, but sorta puzzle-y in that regard! So have fun trying to figure it out.

	[MADELINE left sad]
		How did you even find the time to decorate this part of the facility? There's always so much to deco for stuff I don't see when I go that fast.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		That's the neat part: I didn't!
		I just had one of my lil guys deco it for me! Life is awesome when you own a huge lab as a mad scientist of sorts!
		.. though this does remind me I need to read one part of a script to fulfill my contract, so let me pull it up.
		{~}ahem{/~}
		"We would like to give special thanks to a few people for decorating the Mad Labs.
		These people include GlerG, who designed the layout of the facility and laid down the groundwork for its beautiful, stunning design,
		and Leah, for placing all of the wires, pipes, bricks, etc\. in its tedious and meticulous fashion.
		Without their help, the map wouldn't have been in its glorious state, and we are very grateful to have them as part of the team."

	[MADELINE left peaceful]
		Well this facility looks fantastic! Tell them I am thankful for their work!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		I'll do my best! Right now they are forced to endure collab jail for many projects, so I assure you that their hard work is getting recognized by the 14 people that actually play every single map and collab!

	[MADELINE left sad]
		That's.. sorta depressing when you put it that way...

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		{+MADELINE}, you are the third person who has been inside this facility in the past 3 months.
		How do you think I feel.

	[MADELINE left sad]
		... touche.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Exactly.
		Anyways, that's all for this room, same deal with tutorials.
		Time to actually write accompaniment with this melody! Toodaloo!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Oh boy, I'm excited about this one!
		For this final test, you're going to go through some rarely used tech! At least from what I've seen my less superior peers doing.

		Yeah, that was pretty cool!

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		I guess life does work out in the end, doesn't it..
		.. oh yeah, the room!
		So for these rooms, I used two specific aspects of preserving dashes in this room.
		The first one is preserving your speed whenever you dash horizontally and upwards diagonally,
		and the second allows you to keep the speed whenever you dash into the other direction.
		This combines into one of the coolest rooms I probably have ever made, and I hope you enjoy it!
		Tutorials to the right this time - I know, a shocker, I like being different sometimes-

		Well, you did it, {+MADELINE}. You reached the end of the map.

	[MADELINE left upset]
		Really?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Nah, I'm just pulling your leg! I'm not one of those wish washy corny phonies out there.
		I just say that to annoy people sometimes :)

	[MADELINE left upset]
		You know that's not the greatest quality to have.

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Nahhh everyone loves me and I'm perfect.
		It was in the contract, remember?
		Anyways, real talk.
		Thanks for playtesting these mad labs, I'll make sure to use these qualities with careful hands.
		As well as the two that came before you: Nebulae, my cute little playtester, and Giga, my big ugly playtester.
		You guys are awesome, thanks!
		I also would like to apologize to my peers for taking so long, as Celeste sometimes is starting to get a bit draining to me.
		I appreciate the patience that they had in me.
		And I would like to apologize to Ratsune Squeaku for being slow with this project.
		{*}I KNOW YOU SAID YOU DON'T NEED AN APOLOGY BUT I'M GIVING YOU ONE ANYWAYS!!{/*}
		.. because you deserve the world with how big of a heart you have, I am so happy I got to make a gift for someone as awesome as you!

		So GGs on the map, {+MADELINE}!

	[MADELINE left peaceful]
		GGs indeed!
	[MADELINE left sad]
		Wait, what happened with the music you were making?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Oh I just ripped a song off of newgrounds that was used 10 years ago.
		It was for this map, so hope you enjoyed listening to it!

	[MADELINE left distracted]
		This one has a lot of cursing in it though.. are you allowed to have it?

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		WAIT YOU'RE RIGHT
		SHIT
		Welp, now this project is getting R rated anyways..
		I guess that means I can say fuck confidently now.
		Damn.
		.. well, I guess I'll just leave this as my final message then.

Freeka_Tutorial1A=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		With held dash, it is possible to retain the speed from your dash the entire time you use it.
		Here, use held dash to keep the speed!
		Important note: make sure you end the dash BEFORE you land on the platform to successfully perform the ultra.

Freeka_Tutorial1B=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		You can also perform dashes out of these ultras to chain the speed in the dash!
		Try performing an ultra into an up right dash!

Freeka_Tutorial1C=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Although this is not used in the main room, grounded ultras also carry the same speed when you hold your dash!
		Try performing one into the ground so you can perform it off of the pufferfish!

Freeka_Tutorial2A=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		Bounce Helper makes your movement a little wacky! Supers make you travel horizontally, and hypers make you move diagonally.
		You can still perform reverse wavedashes, hypers, and supers, they'll just send you in the directions mentioned earlier.
		You can also dash into the ground {0.2}then jump right after to get a bounce up into the air!
		Try navigating through the next room using these approaches in mind!

Freeka_Tutorial2B=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		You can also bounce off of walls by dashing into them, and in a wacky way too!
		Wall bounces send you straight up into the air, so you can maneuver around walls much tighter.
		You can also dash straight into walls to bounce into the other direction, and bounce diagonally if you dash diagonally into one!
		Try bouncing off these walls to get to the next checkpoint.

Freeka_Tutorial2C=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		You can also bounce off of walls to perform ultras! Note, the same rule applies to ultras, that being the dash has to end before you touch the ground.
		Try performing an ultra and a chained ultra!

Freeka_Tutorial2D=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		There is one aspect of Bounce Helper used in the main room, and that is the fact that down dashing into a platform keeps your momentum.
		When doing these ultras coming up, try performing the inputs similar to a grounded ultra, except instead of down right dashing at the very end, dash straight down and jump up right after!
		Note, at the start of ultras in Bounce Helper, you have to perform a super normally.

Freeka_Tutorial3A=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		For this map, your kelper nail is bound to your grab. Make sure you plan accordingly!
		For Kelper Nail, you can jump off of special spikes, which look a lot more gray and a lot less sharp than normal spikes.
		You can swipe downwards on these spikes to keep yourself safe, and propel yourself upwards as well!

Freeka_Tutorial3B=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		You can also keep your speed whenever you strike one of these spikes!

Freeka_Tutorial3C=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		What you see before you is a nail refill. The premise is simple: hit the refill, collect the dash!
		Using the same logic from the last checkpoint, you can do the same with these refills!

Freeka_Tutorial3D=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		You now have elytra! You can equip anytime by using the bind you set under the "Communal Helper" section.
		Careful though! Elytra uses a dash in order to deploy, so use it accordingly!

Freeka_Tutorial3E=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		You can perform what I call "elytra ultras," which is basically instead of dashing out of a wavedash or hyper, you deploy the elytra instead!
		Your speed with be maintained when you deploy it, but remember that is still uses a dash!

Freeka_Tutorial4A=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		The important thing to note about superdash is that you can keep speed much easier since you can adjust the angle during the dash.
		The only rule is that in order to maintain the speed, you need to make sure the angle at the end of your dash is facing downwards.

Freeka_Tutorial4B=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		These dashes, however, will keep the same speed all throughout! So as long as you collect enough speed, you can reach great heights!

Freeka_Tutorial5A=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		The first variant of Goober Helper used in this map is called "Dashes Don't Reset Speed."
		This means that just like you keeping your speed when you dash down-diagonally, you can do the same horizontally and up-diagonally!

Freeka_Tutorial5B=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		No comment for this tutorial, I just wanted to do a funny speed chain.
		:)

Freeka_Tutorial5C=

	[THEFREEKER right normal flip]
		The second - and admittedly more complicated - variant of Goober Helper is called "Reverse Dash Speed Preservation."
		This means that you can dash backwards to maintain the speed you had already collected!
		One important thing to keep in mind about this is that you still have to collect the speed appropriately.
		For example, you still have to hold the correct directions for pufferfish boosts, as well as face the correct direction when jumping off platforms.
		This next tutorial, although is a bit difficult (sorry not sorry, teehee), showcases what I mean by this.
		If you can get through this, you baaaasically can clear the main room! Surely..

Hi! Because The Chontest is a nested collab, it may pose a problem to those trying to get the {~}LDSS Rainbow Berry.{/~}
To fix this, this room contains a Silver Berry that is only unlocked if you beat every map deathless.
Since they are all 3-rooms long, it isnt that much of a challenge, but it gives you a fun reason to return to my maps!
Happy rainbowing!

Hi! iosun here, welcome to my LDSS map!
To complete this map, you'll need to know how to perform dream spike jumps.
To perform a dream spike jump, dash into dream spikes, hold away from the block, and buffer a jump.
If you enter the dream block, you were too close to the dream block.
If you die to the spikes, you were too far away.
Happy spike jumping!
Oh also-- no demohypers or dream double jumps are used in this map. Dream hypers are, though!

hichelito=
[MADELINE right normal]
Hi chelito!
[MADELINE left upset]

iosun_tutorial2=
Hi! Let me teach you a fun property of clock refills.
If you get teleported by a clock refill while in the middle of the dash, your dash gets cancelled.
This means if you dash horizontally or up-diagonally right as you're being teleported,
You maintain the speed after your dash ends!
Wow!
To clear this gap, collect the clock, then do a double block boost with a right dash off of the zipper.
(Note: Dash cancelling only works with refills that have the 'reset state' toggle enabled. Since this is a relatively new toggle, this will not be present in most other maps.)
Happy tech spamming!
Oh and while I'm here- watch for red dream blocks. The redder the dream block, the more speed you get from it.

iosun_tutorial3=
Ok so this room is a little bit fucked compared to the others so let me give you some detail
This room requires the use of buffer climbs.
If you buffer climbjumps up a zipper with upwards momentum, the zipper does not trigger.
It should be obvious where this needs to be used.
Also, that big purple dream block in the middle will disappear once you dash into it.

iosun_bugexplainer=
Clock refills are bugged!
All clock refills in this map, which are not supposed to respawn, do!
The teleport is not supposed to trigger a third time!
To prevent getting dumpstered by the ending, get out ASAP after collecting the seeds.

iosun_tutorial4=
Fuck, I think I might have made this room impossible?
Seems like there's a cornerboost here that requires a quick turnaround. But you can't do that.
You can't change speed that quickly... right?
...
Hey Nebulae could I get some help
[MADELINE right normal]
Well, my friend, a cobwob is a cornerboost wallboost, and it can be done anywhere a neutral climbjump can be done!
[MADELINE right normal]
Though the line between wallboost and cobwob can seem hazy, it's really quite simple:
[MADELINE right normal] 
If you neutral climbjump past a wall, and then hold away from said wall, then the game will give you approximately 130 speed away from the wall, and refund your stamina!
[MADELINE right normal]
It's a weird trick, but a very useful one - you can get distance past a wall and then reverse your speed, 
[MADELINE right normal]
or overclock in the air by pushing away from the wall and grabbing a dash crystal to refund your stamina before the wallboost kicks in.
[MADELINE right normal]
All you need to worry about it inputting a wallboost within 11 frames of the climbjump.
[MADELINE right normal]
The direction you input to wallboost is always the opposite direction madeline is facing, so in weird situations like inputting an nrcb or an ultrajump off the bottom of a wall, 
[MADELINE right normal]
you can always change the way madeline is looking to get the wallboost speed. 
[MADELINE right normal]
Most of the time, this reverses your speed, though in the case of an NRCobWob, it would actually set your speed to a wallboost speed without reversing your momentum,
[MADELINE right normal]
due to the fact that the cornerboost was done behind you instead of in front of you. Also, certain things, like walljumping or springs, can induce forcemove, which makes cobwobbing physically impossible during those forcemove frames where the game considers you holding a direction even when you're not. 
[MADELINE right normal]
That's a lot of information to digest, but I hope you learned a lot about the weird cases of cobwobbing!!!

That's the end of my map! Thank you for playing!
This is my first ever map, so it's gotten a little rough in spots.
Any feedback you can give to me would be immeasurably helpful~!
Some special thanks are in order.
Thank you to Hexalia for being my playtester and contributing 4 guest rooms, including 2 berries!
My work on this map would have ground to a halt without her, and she was a great partner throughout the whole experience
She even made a whole other room that didn't end up getting used because it was too hard. You can check it out in debug if you like lol
Thank you to skqw for continuously giving me mapping guidance and being a helpful presence throughout the whole project!
Thank you to sapphire_xer0 for assistance with Lonn and also helping me get this finished
Thank you to alix for late playtesting (although i'm sorry you had to drop it :catplush:)
Thank you to Nebulae for your very funny rant about cobwobs
Thank you to the whole LDSS server for being chill with me as I figured out how to work with this software and how to make decent gameplay. I appreciate y'all a lot
And finally, thank you to Chelito! I hope you enjoyed your map <3
