Thank you! I've been fussing for a week, but you know how it is haha 🫶
Perhaps an obvious one but I like how a game like Celeste is an allegory for navigating the struggles and acceptance of trans identity. If you ever do a part 2, be sure to include it, it’s quite interesting. Really good video essay Jess. Well done ✌🏼🏳️🌈
