This is kind of a weird situation. My normal celeste game has been acting up since I downloaded everest, first I tried to play a modded map and the game repeatedly froze. Today the computer decided to have a mental breakdown in the middle of normal, unmodded gameplay.
Basically, the game freezes, the audio sounds like it's indefinitely stuck in a blender, and the computer itself freezes and won't let me do ANYTHING. Alt+F4, windows, nothing works. I have to force shut it down for it to stop.
Is there any way to stop this from happening? I have over 60 hours of gameplay before this, and it never happened before I downloaded Everest.

limpid lark

poor thing could barely run celeste at full fps

#

idk, ive definitely seen my entire computer freeze like that when running out of memory

#

having relatively low specs does things to you thumbeline
