![]() This tiny detail – a fish raising its top hat – was enough to send me over the edge, doubling over with laughter. ![]() If you choose to interact with it, the fish halts its pacing and raises its top hat, as a gentleman would be expected to do in the early twentieth century. This little fish just swims back and forth in a shallow pond – about knee deep for Otus. I will never forget the moment Otus encounters a grumpy looking fish who is wearing a top hat. Little details are what made this game fantastic and memorable for me. At many times throughout my playthrough, I stopped to take in the beauty of a scenic landscape, a dazzling animation, or the sweeping score that, when unrestrained, made me feel at home in the skies with the protagonist, Otus. From the meek and mute protagonist, Otus, to the threatening and quick-tempered Captain Molstrom, Owlboy offers quirky and idiosyncratic character designs that will stick with me long after the credits have rolled. Every pixel in this retro-style 2D platformer bursts with exuberance. Owlboy is one of the most visually charming and beautifully crafted video games that I have ever had the pleasure of playing. ![]()
