Debug Mode

Enabling Debug Mode gives you access to some debug functions hidden in the game. You get some hotkeys useful when making mods/maps, a debug save and an in-game level viewer allowing you to teleport around.

Keys available during gameplay

• F5: Reload active level
• F6: Open debug map ("level editor"), allows you to teleport around
• Ctrl+F5: Reload the entire game. This is the equivalent of hitting Save & Quit, then closing Celeste, opening it again and loading the save file.
• . (can be rebound in Everest mod options) or ~/`: open the debug console
  • Type help to get a list of existing commands, help [command] for help about a command
  • Type q to close the console

ℹ️ The ~/` key(s) may not be present on all keyboard layouts. Most layouts will have corresponding keys for OemTilde and Oem8, but due to the inconsistency the use of the rebindable key (default .) is recommended.

ℹ️ F1, F2, and F3 are used by vanilla Celeste to reload various assets within levels, but are made redundant by the F5 reload in Everest.

The Debug Save

Debug mode also gives access to a ~DEBUG~ option in the main menu: this is the debug save. Some specific rules are applied to this save:

• Everything is unlocked by default.
• When you start a level, all your collected strawberries for that level are reset.
