The Game

Explore a vibrantly crafted pixel world in this flying adventure platformer.

Being a mute, Otus struggles living up to the expectations of owl-hood. Things spiral from bad to worse with the sudden appearance of sky pirates.

What follows is a journey through monster infested ruins, with unexpected encounters, and burdens no-one should have to bear.

Now out for Mac and Linux

Together with FNA creator Ethan Lee, we've produced a version of Owlboy that runs on Mac and Linux. It should be functionally identical to the Windows version, and once you have bought the game, it'll be available on all platforms.

We'll be continuing to update and optimize this port as best we can going forward, like we've been doing with the Windows version.

To mark this occasion, Owlboy is now available on Steam at a 33% discount until the end of the weekend.
