Hey there! This is Verticaleste, a mod of Celeste Classic 2 that changes the grappling hook mechanic to only be able to go up or down. It is quite challenging, so good luck!

Changes (2.0!):

  • Grappling hook only works vertically
  • You can only pick up an item if you are in the air
  • Crumble blocks will break when you push against them
  • Grapple cooldown lowered from 6 to 5 to make the end of level 1 possible
  • Added crumble block to the end of level 2 to make it easier
  • Added crumble blocks and springs to level 3 to make it possible
  • Title screen???

@Calverin I got as far as this stage, which is the point where I couldn't get any farther. If you ever do an update, you might want to add one more of the red hook shot thingies in this level

Catastrophic Cal I'll consider it, but it is actually possible to get through here if you can bring the spring up to this point. RubyRed was able to do it with cheats, so it would probably only be viable in a TAS or segmented run. Either way, I do want this to be playable normally so I'll either add a spring here or a grapple point like you suggested in the next version.



I'm stumped here and have no clue what to do.

@HouseinTheTrees What I did to get past that part was grapple up, release and immediately grapple down to grab the spring and then throw it onto the platform up there. After that you can grapple up and throw yourself onto the spring to get on the left platform. Next jump just over the edge and grapple down to get the spring, get back onto the platform, and then throw the spring to the right and then jump there.

Worked for me

@Calverin Thanks, it was a little disappointing not being able to get past that point because I had managed to collect every single one of the berries up until then, and it was not an easy feat. Looking forward to an update



@Catastrophic Cal I already updated it! Also your route for that level is the exact one I take. Anyway, good luck with finishing the rest of the game!

@Catastrophic Cal Ohhhhhh For the longest time I never knew you could grapple down. Thank you!
