What are fun mods for casual play?

Question

Hiya Celeste Community. I only discovered Celeste like a few months ago. Loved it! Collected all the normal strawberries, did some goldens, got all the hearts etc... And after that I stumbled upon a youtube video about the strawberry jam collab. It's my first mod I ever installed (totally not familiar with modding and stuff, so had to find some tutorials on how to install the mod etc) and played it. Loved it as well! Very fun and it was a really pleasant surprise for a first time mod as I was pretty skeptical at first ngl.

But I'm just a casual gamer and I'm totally out of the loop on the celeste community and mods. Are other mods installed the same way? I know Monika's D sides exists from watching a speedrun 2-3 months ago, but that seemed quite hard.

I like the strawberry jam mod, did some goldens in the beginner & intermediate and finished advanced a few weeks ago. Because of that game I decided to replay farewell again in one go and I did it with like a thousands deaths less in one sitting compared to several sittings when I first played it with waaay more deaths. It felt good to learn the more detailed movement from the mod and apply it in the base game hardest map. But at this point I'm getting a bit to a halt in strawberry jam... the harder lobbies of strawberry jam are a bit too hard for me (at the time being). I'm not giving up though as I will try to complete it casually (Bit scared of the grandmaster lobby though, that prolly will be hell).

But yeah, I kinda want to chill a bit and play some other levels now. But after searching for some mod vids I came across celeste vids with maps that are WAY TOO hard. Cool beans for the people that like that form of precision movement, but for myself, I don't need to prove myself or collect all the goldens or 'git gud'. I just want to have fun.

So are there other mods like strawberry jam out there? Specifically level packs? I really enjoyed that and hope the community has more. I'm personally not interested in mods that give madeline a tail or different color (it's cool, but I just want to play some more celeste levels :p)

Pls don't troll cause I know some communities can be toxic for "not being able to play the hard stuff". I just enjoy more easy platforming myself tbh. So what are some good recommends? It can be some hard mods near the end, but let's say the beginner levels don't have to start with 'farewell' esque type of gameplay?

That's all :) cheers in advance!
