Pixelicious ‘Owl Boy’ to be playable in early ‘09

September 4, 2008 at 8:39 pm · Filed under Ephemera

Yesterday, indie dev team D-pad Studio announced their 2D platform/adventure game Owl Boy. In development now, the boys at D-pad expect to have a playable build by March 2009, just in time for the Independent Games Festival.

Guessing only from preliminary screenshots, Owl Boy’s splendidly retro art has that rusted-cog aesthetic everyone likes so well. Can’t wait to hear more as it unfolds.

    That crazy doctor looks like Fu Manchu only older, an owl and wearing a book for a hat.

    I’m sold!

    Owls, boys, and an a floating island based off of my steam punk fan fiction. Count me in.
