And if you have a soft spot for 2D games with multiple layers of parallax scrolling-where the background moves slower than the foreground to simulate depth-you're in for a treat. From subterranean creatures to ancient structures, Owlboy tackles several artistic themes and subjects with consistently impressive execution. In tight spaces, you're brought closer into the scene for more intimate inspection. When you enter wide-open spaces, the camera zooms out, chunky details shrink, and meticulously designed structures and environments take shape. It may be a throwback of sorts, but Owlboy's visuals aren't tailored to specifically ape 8- or 16-bit graphics it doesn't have a limited color palette, and its pixel resolution changes based on the scene at hand. Owlboy tackles multiple artistic themes and subjects with consistently impressive execution. Coupled with a script that's rife with emotion and nuance, Owlboy's characters feel real in your heart despite their cartoonish look. There's great attention to detail in the cast's animations, which are often tailored for a specific scene, as opposed to falling back on routine reactions. Sad moments aren't swept under the rug by unreasonable optimism-they stay with your squad and fundamentally alter their outlook on the mission and their own identity in surprising ways. The plot manages to avoid predictability, however, not only through a handful of twists, but by allowing characters to evolve throughout the course of the game. Owlboy is old-school, not just in its presentation, but also in its storytelling-there’s no voice acting, and events are set in stone with nary a major decision-making opportunity in sight.
Otus teams up with a military mechanic, Geddy, to put a stop to the pirates before their home is destroyed. Trouble brews shortly after he wakes up and concerns of pirate sightings explode into panic as a nearby metropolis comes under attack. It's a powerful setup that endears our hero to you. It begins with Otus-our mute protagonist and the runt of his village-during a stressful dream where his professor and dark figments criticize his inadequacies and chastise his inability to speak.
