Fix for stuttering on Linux

Mon, 23 Jun 2025 21:12:40 GMT

Hi, the game started regularly stuttering for me seemingly for no reason, presumably after an Arch Linux update.

On Steam it was suggested to update the bundled SDL2 library with a newer one provided by flibitijibibo: https://steamcommunity.com/app/504230/discussions/4/4336474207083138770

Unfortunately his link doesn’t work anymore, but it turns out that the issue is fixed by just removing the bundled SDL2 lib entirely and instead letting the game use native libraries (sdl3 with sdl2-compat).

I was gonna leave a comment on that Steam forum thread, but I don’t own the game on Steam, so I’m writing a post here instead. :)

Unable to add controller binds

Sat, 24 Aug 2024 13:13:34 GMT

I got a new controller and I tried playing celeste with it, but I realised that I don't like the binds and I wanted to edit them except it doesn't let me add new ones, even with a keyboard (Windows 11 v1.4.0.0, Everest)

Controller Not Registering

Tue, 26 Mar 2024 03:35:26 GMT

Hello everyone!

I just installed the game on Mac and it will not register any controller inputs. Initially it appears as if there is a controller paired, showing the Xbox style "A" button icon at the start of the game, but it will not read any inputs I have. If I press a key on the keyboard, I can not get the controller icon to reappear. I am using an Xbox series X controller. Has anyone found a solution to this problem?

I apologize if this has been answered in a previous comment! I appreciate all of your help. Celeste is easily one of my favorite games and I am hoping I can get it running with my controller. Thanks everyone!

The link to register is wrong in the mac version of the desktop app

Fri, 18 Aug 2023 15:10:07 GMT

There is an extra '/' added to the links which is causing an issue. Example: Clicking on Register takes you to 'https://itch.io//register'. This results in a not found page.

XBox controller imput problems

Fri, 28 Apr 2023 20:45:10 GMT

I just started playing this game and i'm having imput issues. In a level, If i press 'A' it pauses the game. I went to try to config settings but the only button on there that pauses is the regular pause button. Also, when using the keyboard on the menu, those buttons you see at the bottom right of the screen are there, with a controller in the menus, they flash in and out?

Touched ground on a golden teardrop section.

Fri, 10 Feb 2023 16:43:38 GMT

I was playing the golden teardrop section in the first section of Golden Ridge (7th Strawberry). You aren’t supposed to touch the ground without it resetting, but I barely glanced a corner and got my boost back, but the teardrops didn’t reset.

I don’t know if this is a bug, or a known tech.

Celeste won't open: cannot load csteamworks.dll

Mon, 14 Mar 2022 23:44:04 GMT

I have already tried everything that is said in the "Help info" thread, yet Celeste does not open. My error log is in Portuguese since I'm a Brazillian and my notebook does not allow me to configure a different exhibition language (apparently my version of Windows 11 Home just doesn't support it?) but the error message is consistently this one:

System.DllNotFoundException: Não é possível carregar a DLL 'CSteamworks': Não foi possível encontrar o módulo especificado. (Exceção de HRESULT: 0x8007007E)    em Steamworks.NativeMethods.SteamAPI_RestartAppIfNecessary(AppId_t unOwnAppID)    em Celeste.Celeste.Main(String[] args)

In other words, "cannot load the DLL 'CSteamworks': it wasn't possible to find the specified module". The exception code is 0x8007007E.

I have checked the items 1 through 4 from the Help Info Thread, but idk what the openGL windows version of the game (or whatever it even refers to) would be.

Game crashing when saving

Sun, 15 Jan 2023 15:56:40 GMT

The game keeps crashing when I try to save or change settings or finish the first chapter, I wiped the whole internet for a possible solution but didn't find anything useful, I hope someone helps me here!

and here is the error log:

1B not registering as complete when jumping into heart

Sat, 07 Jan 2023 09:55:12 GMT

Doing 1B for the first time and I jumped into the heart instead of dashing into it. This caused the heart acquired animation to play as normal, but instead of completing the level, I was moved back to the start of the room as if I had died or collected a cassette tape. Moving back to the final area, the heart was gone. Quitting to the menu showed the level never being cleared..

Fixed by replaying the end of the mission and dashing into the heart normally.

Exe disappearing on windows

Pausing in certain sections hardfreezes game on linux

Tue, 15 Nov 2022 18:34:58 GMT

I've currently been triaging an issue on my local computer (Linux 5.19.0-23, Ubuntu 22.10 Kinetic, OpenGL Version 4.6, Vulkan Version 1.1.73) where pausing the game with escape during the Chasm checkpoint hardlocks the game and sometimes my whole system. I cannot determine the precise sequence to cause it, but there seems to either be a time or position requirement. It happens in at least the first two rooms of Chasm, but the first room only after spending a certain amount of time in either the checkpoint or the whole level. Crossing the majority of the room by first getting to the top ledge then doing an extended hyper works and pausing either after the halfway point of the room (~0:02) or on the far ledge for the first room consistently crashes. This crash does not appear to affect any other checkpoint in Forsaken City A-side, or any other A-side at all (I have not tested Chapter 1b, or levels past chapter 3, but no crash occurs at any point in start or crossing or in any part of chapter 2 or 3).

In the case that the system hardfreezes (which I believe to caused by the game, possibly indirectly), no inputs at all cause the computer to respond and a forced shutdown is required. In the cases that the game freezes, it causes considerable lag and also prevents other processes from enumerating processes (preventing, among other things, htop or killall), it also seemed to ignore all attempts to terminate the program (including during shutdown when the window persisted past the Desktop Manager stopping, and possibly into when it should have recieved both SIGTERM and SIGKILL(???)).

Controller wont get detected by the game

Mon, 21 Sep 2020 18:23:28 GMT

idk what else to add, my computer recognizes it and i use it for other games on the cpu. It's a playstation controller, not bootleg:/

Limited reward and Patreon issues

Sat, 30 Jul 2022 14:49:46 GMT

If you require a limited reward, but still allow users to redeem on Patreon... the limited reward doesn't tick down properly. For instance if I set a limited reward to 100 units, force users to choose a reward when purchasing, but still allow Patreon users to redeem the product... if they redeem the product and claim the reward, it won't impact the number of limited units. I feel like it should, so I'm not sure if this is intentional or just an oversight.

Crashed and won't launch anymore

Sat, 09 Jul 2022 22:43:15 GMT

Hello!

I got the game on Epic and ran it on Windows (10). I never had any issue playing through it for as far as I remember.

Recently I launched a new run and played through the first levels. At the end of a chapter it crashed. I didn't mind as I planned to stop there for this night.
Right now I played through the Station Celeste level, and at the end of it the game crashed. As I was not done yet I tried to launch it, but no luck: the game won't stop loading, and eventually I have to close it.

My guess would be that there is an issue with one of the textures in the menu of level selection.

Here are the logs:

Game not detecting controller (Mac)

Mon, 11 Apr 2022 21:33:19 GMT

This seems to be a common issue, but Celeste isn't detecting my controller - it works fine for other games, but for this one, when I go into controller settings, it just says to plug one in. It isn't responding to any buttons either. I've looked through all the other controller help threads, tried adding it as a non-steam game, Steam Big Picture (that won't detect controller either), etc. but none of it works. My computer is an M1 Mac mini (Monterey) and my controller is a SteelSeries Nimbus+ (wireless/Bluetooth). With both Steam and Celeste not detecting it, it might just be something with the controller, but I'm not sure. Any ideas to fix it? I have been doing decently so far with just the keyboard, but it would be nice to be able to play with controller.

Mac: Celeste quit unexpectedly.

Game crashes at first autosave

Menu bug in my save

Mon, 14 Mar 2022 23:40:10 GMT

Hi !

I've just downloaded Celeste, and there is a bug in the menus... When i'm in the game, i press escape to open the pause menu, and every button does not react when i click on them, they just do their animation, and nothing happens... So i cannot save, i cannot open the options etc...

I've tried to create a new save, but it does the same...

Thanks for your help ^^

celeste modifies my keyboard configuration automatically

Sat, 29 Jan 2022 20:56:13 GMT

Issue: When using the Dvorak keyboard layout, Celeste seems to automatically remap my keys, assuming that they keys I have set are intended for a QWERTY layout, and then assigning them the appropriate key that would be in that position in a Dvorak layout.

For instance, when I set the "confirm" key to O, upon restarting the game, the prompt on the title screen has changed to R. (qwerty O is at the same location as dvorak R), and then if I open the settings menu whatsoever, even if I do not open the keyboard configuration menu, it changes to P (qwerty R is dvorak P), and then again, it changes to L (qwerty P is dvorak L).

I appreciate the idea that Celeste wants to handle Dvorak keyboard layouts, but I have found this rather frustrating.

Mushroom in Chapter 9 - Farewell (Powersource) is broken

Game Won't Launch

Fri, 26 Jan 2018 04:14:02 GMT

Simple as that. I downloaded the windows zip, extracted it into its own folder, and clicked celeste.exe. Nothing happens, even running on administrator mode. Is there a step I'm missing? I'm running Windows 10 32 bit on my older laptop. Anyone else having this problem?

can't exit options screen

Fri, 09 Jul 2021 18:35:15 GMT

whenever i press x or backspace in the options screen, it closes the game entirely. i've tried changing the keybinds and it still will not let me exit the options screen without entirely closing the game. how do i fix this?

Celeste won't respond to my keyboard!

Sat, 12 Jun 2021 01:00:48 GMT

I just got Celeste on Windows, and while trying to start the game, I realized neither my mouse nor my keyboard would show any kind of input. I'm stuck on the title screen (as shown below) with no mouse to be seen. No matter what button I click, the game won't start. I'm using the XMA version, and the game's not frozen because the snow moves across the screen and the lighting slowly changes. The keyboard works with every other game I get through itch.io, just not this one.

I have used this controller for many other things on this computer, it is just a standard xbox 360 controller. However, Celeste will not recognize it when I plug it in. I have 100+ hours on switch and I really don't want to start from 0 on keyboard controls. Any help or insight is appreciated!

Can't lauch

Wed, 10 Jun 2020 03:13:17 GMT

Hello! I am downloading Celeste for the first time and the game does not launch. I am probably just doing something wrong, so if anyone could help I would appreciate a lot. After I downloaded the game (windows 10) and extracted the application to my desktop, the game simply does not lauch and it does not show any error log. The only way I can lauch the game is by executing the application directly on the winrar folder. In this way I can play the game normaly, but it does not save. So I actually don't know which problem it is exactly and what I can do to solve it.

Can't Jump When Playing

Fri, 05 Feb 2021 15:41:03 GMT

I managed to open the game, but when I try to jump, the sprite doesn't move. There's a small animation that occurs so I know it registers, but the sprite just doesn't lift itself off the ground. Any ideas?

Trouble with Zip File for Installation

Sun, 10 Jan 2021 05:24:22 GMT

Hello!

I'm currently having some issues with starting the installation for Celeste. I own a Mac OS Catalina version 10.15.7 and I initially tried the OSX zipfile, but I got a notification saying the file was unsupported. The Linux zipfile said the same thing, and the windows file opens up, but only in file form without offering a notification for installation. Which zipfile should I download to begin installation, if any work for my software? Thanks!

Error log

After playing Celeste for quite a bit I always get this error log. If anyone could help me fix this that'd be great! I play on Windows 10 on PC. Thanks!

Game crashing after Crystal cutscene

Mon, 26 Oct 2020 08:59:42 GMT

I'm in the crystal caves and I just got to the cutscene where you find Theo in the caves. The cutscene goes just fine until the part where you're supposed to dash to (presumably) break him out of the cave. It freezes with the dash arrow in place and the game stops accepting input.

I'm playing on Windows 10 with an X-Box 360 controller and have Assist Mode on with Dash Assist enabled

EDIT: I turned off Dash Assist and was able to complete the cutscene, it seems there's an issue with Dash Assist there

Visual glitch on a dash collision with wall and blue bubble, reliably reproducible (given precision)

Mon, 05 Oct 2020 15:03:21 GMT

Climbing or touching the wall before dashing is not required, I do it in the videos for precision, but the first time it was an airborne dash.

game will not open

Thu, 24 Sep 2020 18:00:17 GMT

i have the osx version and i am keeping it on an external drive. as i type this i am thinking this might be part of the problem but i went to check it and it now has a 'do not enter' symbol around it, when i click it a window pops up that says "You can’t open the application “Celeste” because it may be damaged or incomplete." anyways BEFORE that happened, it just wouldn't open, first it would say something about not being sure it was safe, and then when i would override it it would only be "open" for like a second in the dock, did not open any windows to my recollection, please help

can't dash up and right with WASD controls

Thu, 23 Jul 2020 15:47:23 GMT

I tried to change the controls so that K is dash (since that's what I've got it set to on Hollow Knight) and moving uses WASD, but I can't dash at all while holding W and D. I can dash in every other direciton using WASD, but not up and to the right at the same time. I can dash up and right using the arrow keys, but obvs I can't switch to arrow keys every time I want to dash that way and I suck at using arrow keys as movement controls. help?

Game crashed in bonus level

Fri, 24 Jul 2020 14:25:15 GMT

I was starting the bonus level in the mountains, that you need hearts for to enter. I was around the second or third screen with the flying flaming balls, when I paused the game and I clicked out of the game. The game crashed with the following message:

Can I transfer my download of Celeste to Steam?

Sun, 05 Jul 2020 23:14:06 GMT

I'm trying to figure out if I can transfer Celeste from Windows to Steam. I managed to add it to my Steam account but when I press play nothing happens. Tbh nothing happens on my computer when I press play too (Windows 10). Any ideas?

PS3 Controller not recognised

Mon, 15 Jun 2020 11:30:13 GMT

Hey,

Sorry if this is a dumb question - I've searched to see if this has been answered yet but afaik it hasn't. I'm trying to use my ps3 remote to play via usb connection; it works fine via steam so I know there's no controller issue, but Celeste doesn't recognise the controller at all. Is there something I have to do in the game file/my laptop to get it work?

Thanks! :)

Crashes and blue screens

When I start a chapter it sometimes crashes and causes a blue screen it's very frustrating and I was wondering if there were any simple fixes.

Game stutters during graphical effects

Sun, 15 Sep 2019 01:07:30 GMT

Whenever any graphical effect of any consequence occurs, the game either stutters or comes to a grinding halt. For instance, if I hold on to a wall long enough that I can no longer do so, whatever animation that plays causes the game to completely freeze up for a couple seconds. I've tried installing the XNA thing that I saw referenced elsewhere, but that didn't change anything, and I'm assuming that my computer is well over the suggested system requirements. What else could I try?

Massive slowdowns in OpenGL version (Win7)

Wed, 17 Jun 2020 03:16:17 GMT

When running out of stamina climbing or using the golden feather powerup the framerate drops to slide show (<1) and becomes completely unplayable. As soon as she falls or the powerup expires it goes back to normal. No issues with the normal version of the game but switched to OpenGL to support my USB controller.

Red lines when playing full screen

Mon, 15 Jun 2020 05:22:56 GMT

I'm playing version 1.3.1.2 in Ubuntu Linux 18.04, using a GeForce GTX 950 video card and version 440.64.00 of the Nvidia driver.

Anyway, whenever I play the game full screen, there are red lines all over the screen that look like they're outlining some (but not all) of the pixels in the game's graphic. In fact, it seems like the lines happen if I play with any display scaling other than 4x or 6x; if I set it to one of those two in the game's settings, the lines go away, but at full screen (which is 1440p for me) or any other scale, they consistently appear. Any idea what might be going on? Image attached for reference.

Issues Running Game on Mac

Sun, 14 Jun 2020 14:16:24 GMT

Hi! I apologize if this has already been answered, but while looking through the topics here I only saw solutions for windows. I am currently attempting to run the game on Mac, but with no luck. I was wondering if there is a solution to this issue?
