Music in Video Games: Celeste

- January 31, 2019

Celeste is an indie platformer game made my Matt Makes Games who also made Towerfall, both of these games are fantastic in their own way but Celeste takes the cake when it comes to music. The music in Celeste is so entrancing in many ways and the fact that you're probably gonna hear the stage's song over and over again because you'll probably die a lot because of the insane difficulty and still not get tired of these songs because of how well they combine with the stage and overall feeling of the game. Making all of the songs a huge motivator along the way.

This game was a really big challenge, but I enjoyed it nevertheless. It's been a long time since I have actually felt like I accomplished something from passing a game, and this game delivers that satisfaction in strides. When you finally reach that top you feel like you learned something in the way and it's pretty special. All this feeling accompanied with a great soundtrack makes this game one of the best that I've played in 2018. Hugely recommend it if you haven't played it yet.

Like always here are the songs I liked the most:
