The characters are drawn and expressed superbly well through their animation but it’s the levels themselves which are a real standout.

Even though this was released a year ago on PC the visuals still stand the test of time today. Visually this game is described as a love letter to pixel art, which by the way was ten years in the making, and it shows through here. All very good indeed, the sound department is where Owlboy excels. Collecting coins makes that nice little che ching sound and when opening a gate it has the sturdy, mechanical sound.

When you find a secret it has the little Zelda vibe going on. The sound effects all sound great adding to the already excellent musical score, from Obus flying and hearing the flap of his wings to when he lets out a little screech when he gets hurt. The Tropos day track is stunning and well worth a listen away from the game with some good headphones. This is certainly a composer I would have no hesitation in supporting. Another highlight is going into a shop and it has that Mall type music playing which sounds so right and at the same time so predictable.Ībsolutely wonderful stuff and if this is your thing I would suggest checking out to check out his discography or going straight to Bandcamp where you can buy the digital album. It is what this game needed as there is no voice acting just the text on the screen. It’s how the game expresses itself to you, the player, through the music for example when you find Geddy, everything is more upbeat all of a sudden or when you take flight for the first time by yourself to explore, it just all feels like you want to explore more. Instruments such as flute, clarinet, violins, bass and cello are all present here and If I had just been to the theatre here in London this is the type of music I would have come to expect. Johnathan has created some wonderful pieces of music for this game which is engaging, heartwarming, atmospheric and is just a perfect accompaniment to match the wonderful pixel art visuals.

The score here was created by Jonathan Geer and is absolutely majestic.
