To think that this gem came out of a game jam! @maddymakesgames.com, thank you. ❤️
Cover of "Celeste," an indie video game by Maddy Makes Games. Cover shows a young girl with red hair surrounded by outlined sketches of a jellyfish, a heart, streamers of some kind, a flower, and a bird, probably a crow.
