After several years in development Owlboy finally has a release date...November 1st 2016!...
Originally conceived way back in 2007 this is one of those indie games I've been looking forward to for ages.A demo was released some time in 2010 and it earned great acclaim for Its beautiful pixel art.

Check out the Owlboy press kit here:

It reminds me a bit of Uka-Laylee, an upcoming game for pretty much every platform. Owlboy seems to have very similar gameplay, but then in 2d

Uka-Laylee is the spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie which may have also inspired the developers of Owlboy. Owlboy takes the friend-carrying mechanic a step further where you have multiple friends you can carry; each with their own unique abilities.

Reviews have been pretty great for Owlboy thus far. Planning to buy it on steam in a few days.

Here's IGN's review:
