TOGP #21: "That One Game: Celeste"

That One Gaming Podcast

This week Colin, Lucas, and Neal are back with the latest entry in our That One Game series, with the newest game to be featured in the series so far by quite a large margin - 2018's indie masterpiece Celeste. Recently celebrating its fifth anniversary, Celeste released to nearly unanimous critical acclaim, receiving praise for its difficult but forgiving gameplay and accessibility options, heartfelt story, fantastic score, and gorgeous pixel art.
In the game, you control Madeline, a young girl on a mission to climb Mt Celeste, only to find that the mountain is determined to fight back every step of the way. Throughout Celeste's 7 main story levels, Madeline must fight off her own insecurities - manafested in physical form as the character Badeline - and whatever else the mountain throws at her to succeed in her quest to reach the Summit.
*Note: Due to some technical mishaps, the episode's a bit late this week. Should hopefully be back to our normal Tuesday for the next one!
Celeste 5th anniversary physical release!
