Installation Instructions
FAQ
- Do I need to own Celeste in order to play this?
- Yes. Strawberry Jam is an add-on mod for Celeste, not a standalone product.
- Can I play this on my Switch or other console?
- Unfortunately, no. Strawberry Jam requires the Everest mod loader, which is desktop only. However, it is playable on the Steam Deck, in desktop mode.
- Is this an official release or DLC for Celeste?
- No. Strawberry Jam is a fan-made modding project.
- I feel it will be too difficult for me. Can I still experience the visuals and music of the harder levels without grinding them for dozens of hours?
- Yes. Celeste's Assist Options are fully compatible with Strawberry Jam, so you can adjust the difficulty to suit your preferences. Additionally, several maps in the Beginner Lobby don't get any more difficult than Celeste's Summit chapter, so you don't need to have completed the B-Sides or Farewell to dive in.
- I've already played Spring Collab, will the difficulty scale be the same?
- While the general structure of Strawberry Jam is very similar to Spring Collab, each lobby may not follow the exact same difficulty boundaries as you're used to.
- So many maps! Where should I start?
- Every map has a meter that corresponds to its difficulty within the lobby, from green (easier) to red (harder). These meters are found on the title banners of the map, and in the journal. If you're new to a certain difficulty or modding in general, we recommend trying out maps marked green on their meters first for a smoother experience.
- Help! The installation process didn't work/my game crashed/I'm having other technical difficulties:
- If you're having trouble installing Everest or Strawberry Jam, please double-check the installation instructions and make sure you didn't skip a step or download the wrong version of Everest for your system.
- If you're getting the in-game error "Mods failed to load", please navigate to the Mod Options menu and select "install missing dependencies".
- If your game crashes, an error log will pop up. If the phrase "Out of memory exception" appears at the top of the log, you likely have too many content mods enabled. Try disabling all mods besides Strawberry Jam, its dependencies, and any cosmetic or quality of life mods you would like to use.
- If the problem persists after trying these steps, please join the official Strawberry Jam Discord server and post the issue in the #issue-reports channel.
