Indie platform gameCelesteis celebrating its sixth anniversary this year, and a 3D platformer has been released to mark the occasion. CalledCeleste 64: Fragments of the Mountain, the game is entirely free to play on itch.io and allows players to relive the magic of the adventure with Madeline in a short but sweet adventure.
According to theitch.io page, the Extremely Ok Games team createdFragments of the Mountainin a week or so. But, despite its short turnaround, there’s still a lot to work your way through in this reimagining of one of thebest indie games; such as bonus levels and post-game dialogue which alludes to a sequel.

Currently,Celeste 64: Fragments of the Mountainis only available via itch.io, so, if you’re an avid console player, you may not be able to see what the newest rendition offers. It seems like there are no plans for this free platformer to be ported to consoles either, so it might just be a case of sitting this one out.
With that said, if you are looking to play throughCeleste 64: Fragments of the Mountain,a controller is advised over the use of a mouse and keyboard. WithCelestebeing renowned for its challenging level design, it’s probably best to play as the team suggests to prevent any potential frustrations.
