About
Owlboy is an action indie adventure platformer developed and published by D-Pad Studio, released on October 31, 2016. This single-player title functions as a high-bit adventure where players fly and explore a new world located in the clouds. The game offers a unique mix of flight mechanics and platforming elements within an open-world exploration setting. Players can carry various items and recruit friends to act as gunners with unique abilities during combat. The narrative follows Otus, a mute owl who struggles with expectations while facing challenges from sky pirates. The journey takes place through monster-infested ruins filled with unexpected encounters, secrets, and burdens the protagonist must bear. Combat involves overcoming obstacles and larger enemies in large dungeons that feature big and challenging boss battles. Each recruited friend brings their own story and specific skills to aid Otus in these fights. The main story requires approximately eight hours to complete, while including extras extends playtime to ten hours. For players aiming for a completionist run, the total length reaches thirteen hours. The experience is presented as a detailed adventure that serves as a love letter to pixel art for a new audience.

It's taken nine years to land, but Owlboy is well worth the wait.

A beautiful adventure platformer with a cheerful pixel art veneer, but with very modern themes.

Owlboy shines thanks to surprisingly varied, Metroidvania-style gameplay and a charming cast of unlikely heroes whose bittersweet journey is among the best I’ve experienced in recent years. Its remarkably detailed pixel art makes every scene more breathtaking than the last, but it’s the relationships between characters in both story and gameplay that makes Owlboy something truly special.
