The only downside of this was that I wish the NPCs in the game had a little more involvement to flesh out their stories more. Most of the villainous Pirates, the main antagonists in the game, are pretty nondescript, but your partners have clear personalities that shine through (with Alphonse being a personal favorite of mine) and just about every character has a pretty cool personality.
This is punctuated by an excellent soundtrack that successfully pulls off making you feel uplifted, sorrowful and in grave danger when appropriate. The characters and enemies and areas all have fun, bright, colorful designs and animate wonderfully. Starting with the positives, though Owlboy certainly has the look of an old school 16-bit game we see far too often these days, it has a style that evokes that era wonderfully and does something of its own with it rather than just copy it.
