A better game than I expected at the beginning. I liked the pixel art back then, but thought the game would be a bit too casual.
At the end though, Owlboy offers mostly a great and well balanced experience. The variety and (re-)exploration of the levels doesn't really keep up with the better Metroidvania titles, but it offers a little variation.
My personal highligh of Owlboy is the soundtrack, with Mesos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_tG8U5tOYA&index=11&list=PLfG0HYK6dC4z62yhJZQx7UMPQhzrPUIdc being my favorite, because it reminded me so much of Chrono Trigger.
