People seem to like it, I will try it later tonight. Anyone played it? It still looks really cool after all these years.

Is it just me or is there no youtube video in my post? I tried to post their trailer but only got a blank space.

Edit: It was my browser blocking the script. So it works I guess.

Is it weird that I'm just really proud of the devs right now?

Enjoying the game but it's really not what I expected, the nuanced political undertones, the outbreak of war, the sudden tonal shift involved with showing the brutal effects it has on ordinary people, it's just all emotionally exhausting. That said, Owldolph Hootler is the best written villain of the generation, very believable motivations re: the pelicans

I thought the opening bits were a bit rough and made the game look like it'd be Super Generic Metroidvania but I played further and I'm enjoying the hell out of it now.

... Nobody seems to be playing it over on Steam tho. I kind of suspect it's the 25 dollar price tag. Is 25 dollars a lot of money? Are devs just expected to lowball their prices now?

Looks fantastic, that framerate though.

Not sure but it looks like that. Consumers love Steam sales. Also when a solo project goes beyond 15 Dollar mark you will frequently find steam threads complaining about that. Axiom Verge is one example:

Man, the OP's sense of entitlement… Sad how people can't price the things they create without anyone calling it a ripoff and *demanding* a price drop.

About Owlboy itself I haven't tried it out yet but it sounds and looks great. Congratulations for the devs. Smiley

I don't think videogames actually exist! but this, I have been waiting ten years and dozens of failed relationships for this.

I hope it makes me happy, again

25 bucks isn't much, but personally I've already used up this months budget I've allotted to games (GOG had a sale). Will have to wait next month, and even then I would rather not buy it on Steam...

The game looks fantastic!

to be honest, that's why i've been reluctant about the game. i'm burned out on the metroidvania formula and while the visuals are amazing, gameplay looks a little bland from the videos i've seen.

what makes it different from generic metroidvanias?

Actually the game is 60fps, the trailer is misleading in that regard.
