We've taken the opportunity to update Owlboy on Steam. The game will soon be available to play on Steam Deck.
The latest version should enhance loading-speeds across all operative systems & add additional controller support.
List of changes:
- Changed to FNA, which should fix multiple crashes
- The old XNA version of the game is still available on the "xnaversion" beta branch on Steam
- Level loading is much faster
- More readable Japanese, Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean fonts
- Better error logging, moved logs to C:\Users\\Saved Games\Owlboy\Saves\logs
- One shared build for Windows, Mac, and Linux
- Support for PS4 controller natively
- Help files now available in Data/Help in the install directory
- Many out of bounds and speed-runner glitches fixed
Owlboy is a 'hi-bit' adventure game, where you can fly and explore a brand new world in the clouds! Pick up your friends, and bring them with you as you explore the open skies. Overcome obstacles and greater enemies, in one of the most detailed adventures of this era.
Being a mute, Otus struggles living up to the expectations of owl-hood. Things spiral from bad to worse with the sudden appearance of sky pirates.
