An uplifting adventure.



UPDATE: With the conclusion of PAX, the 20% pre-order discount for the game has been changed to 10%. D-Pad Studio also announced that Owlboy is scheduled to take off on November 1st!



<span class="bold">Owlboy</span>, a wonderful flight through old-school aesthetics and unique platforming mechanics, is now available for pre-order, DRM-free on GOG.com, with a 10% pre-order discount.

Otus doesn't say much but his spirit and determination speak volumes. Just as the beloved owlboy is coming of age, a surprise attack by sky pirates forces him to ride the winds of change and begin his turbulent journey across the aching land. To counter-balance his non-violent nature, Otus will enlist several of his less cordial friends, who are able to gun down the monsters that infest his beloved home. Apart from their unique abilities, the owlboy will share with them stories and companionship, as they flap together towards an open-world full of cavernous dungeons, dangerous ruins, and challenging bosses. Remember: carrying is caring!


Pre-order <span class="bold">Owlboy</span> and take to the pixel-perfect skies, DRM-free on GOG.com.
Pre-order bonus: the dreamy OST is free for the early owls, available to download right away both on mp3 and FLAC formats!
The 10% discount will last until the game's release on November 1st.

Maighstir: Seems like the title could sound similar to "I'll buy" in some dialect of English, but I can't figure out which. As a consequence, I won't buy this one yet.
Does not compute. Yeah, that's why the game is called Owlboy. *facepalm*

Can someone please direct me to the place where we can see which games are coming to gog soon? And I don't mean the ones under the "in dev" tab.

Click on "Upcoming" on the frontpage. Right above the most popular games.

What PaterAlf said, mind that not all games coming to GOG are shown in the Upcoming tab.

catpower1980: Wow, I thought the development of this game was dead long ago... I first heard of it more than two years ago (as it already had been in development for ages)
I think it was more than two at this point. I also thought it dead. Hurray I guess. Still no Linux version, I guess they spent all that time pretty-pixeling the scenery. I mean, it is $25...

At least it was intentional with Little Dew. :P

Ladies and Gentlemen... Pixel art: Done right.

Damn, it looks fantastic!

Will need some confirmation on keyboard/mouse playability and actual release date before coming to any... say... rash decisions. :)

Instabought.

I had been waiting for Owlboy for ages, now, and it's a pleasant surprise to see it being released on my store of choice. I remember playing the old demo way back when, if it's at least as good as that demo was (based on a no longer existing version of the game, *really* early build), all I can say is: BUY IT!

So stoked for this one! Waiting for the release date announcement on PAX, knowing it's scheduled for a "Fall 2016" release.

Oh, and the OST that comes with the pre-order? Really, really nice!

If it's any consequence - I found your post and the reply together to be hilarious :)

Don't worry, I found your joke to be an absolute hoot.
