Strawberry

Strawberries are collectibles that first appeared in celeste classic. they are never required to beat a level, but the summit flag tracks how many have been collected in total. Collecting all 18 is considered to be 100% completion. Some strawberries take the form of flying strawberries that fly upwards when the player dashes. Other berries can come out of chests when a key is collected. the player can collect a strawberry by touching it, and even if the player dies afterwards the strawberry will remain collected and not come back. it is unclear whether madeline consumes the strawberries, collects them for later use, or simply causes them to disappear.
