Owlboy is a relatively short but extremely high-quality Sidescrolling Action-Adventure game.

You play as an Owlboy who tries to protect the world from pirates but in some way seems like he screws up in some way or another. The main thing is that you fly, you grab things and you can grab people, who you use in order to shoot.

It is heavily inspired by classics like metroid, but most importantly Zelda. Although even though its visuals really show its inspiration from Zelda, it does lack a certain quantity and variety of puzzles that the Zelda games offer.

Its story is as beautiful as its artstyle and its characters are charming and somewhat relatable.

All in all, a great game that might seem expensive for its duration, but has such a high quality and refinement of both artstyle and gameplay that makes it absolutely worth it for a lover of the genre or someone who is just getting into it.
