Owlboy still warms My heart, still coming

Like Youropa, Owlboy is another surprising Indie game that I quickly pinned my heart to and waited to explode into a sleeper hit. That was early last year and with no mention from the mainstream press (I should specify, the mainstream press that I myself read) I did a quick bit of searching.

Though the video above is from 2008, progress on Owlboy continues at D-pad Studio which is pretty much two Norwegian guys working remotely with some compatriots  in the U.S. and Canada. I was worried that Owlboy had vanished for good but am happy to see it’s still going strong and that it will hopefully hit the Xbox Live Indie Games channel and PC within a year.
