About the story

From Wikipedia: "Owlboy is set in the land of the sky; the islands of the world below have been separated by a catastrophic event. The player controls a boy named Odus, who is a member of an owl–human hybrid race called the Owls. When Otus' village is attacked by a band of pirates, he sets out on a journey to save it from them."

Owlboy is a sensational game, which is the best example of what today's 2D games should look like. The story, full of emotion and fast action, stays in memory long after game is finished.

Owlboy is a sensational production, which is the best example of what today's 2D games should look like. Full of emotions and action, the story is remembered long after the console is turned off.

Owlboy is everything you’d traditionally expect of 2D puzzle-platformer and beyond.

Owlboy is amazing thanks to it's fantastic set of characters and an incredible world to explore. The game has beautiful pixel art and great dialogue that will make you laugh out loud. The only downside is that the game crashes for no reason sometimes.
