Game crashes on start up, only fix seems to go into OpenGL beta
11 hours ago

Whenever I try to open Celeste on my gaming laptop the game crashes after trying to get past the opening screen which says Celeste. Online, the only fix I can find is to go into the OpenGL beta on steam, and this does fix the issue for me. However, the rules say that betas are not allowed. I really want to be able to speedrun this game but would not be able to as the game crashes, and on the rare occasion that it works it randomly crashes making it inconsistent to record with.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do?

Beta's not being allowed is an artifact of the time at the beginning of 2021, where there were beta patches for the then upcoming 1.4 patch. Betas that still set your game to the current Steam version (which is 1.4.0.0) are allowed. So you can use the OpenGL branch for speedrunning with no issues
