Celeste
Celeste is all about conquering a large mountain, and that journey is beautifully reflected through Madeline’s own journey of overcoming self-doubt and crippling anxiety. It touches on some heavy themes, but the story does a great job of justifying those themes with simple writing and addictive gameplay. Celeste’s platforming challenges can get quite brutal at times, but what makes it special is its insistence on smart use of your moveset over pixel-perfect jumps.
