The 2018 platformer Celeste - the game which made composer Lena Raine’s name - too marries its gameplay and visuals to its music. Rather than exploring an idyllic woodland as in Ori, in Celeste the player must work to the top of a forbidding mountain, overcoming spikes, chasms, high winds, a psychotic hotel owner, extremely unsettling one-eyed squid monsters, and, in a very literal way, one’s own personal demons. The muscular physics feel very different from Ori’s wispiness, and the pixelly retro graphics call back to the Nintendo and Sega heyday of the '80s and '90s.
