If you're facing the issue where Celeste doesn't see your gamepad/controller, and you couldn't find a solution that doesn't involve programs like x360ce, this guide is for you!

P.S. All your progress will be saved, and achievements will remain intact.

1.Ensure your controller works and Steam detects it. If it doesn't, try enabling Steam Input (helps with non-original controllers).


If everything is fine, proceed as follows:

• Go to the game's Properties in Steam.
  
  
• Navigate to the Betas tab.
  
  
• Select the opengl beta version from the dropdown menu.
  
  
• Save the changes.
  
  
• Launch the game and verify it works.

Your gamepad/controller should now work correctly. If it doesn't, Try launching the game through Steam Big Picture Mode. If it still doesn't work, the issue might be with the controller itself. Try reinstalling drivers, using emulators, etc.

All gaming achievements can be earned on this beta version, and it functions identically to the current stable version!
