Owlboy has been in development for almost 10 years and went almost unnoticed when it was released on PC. I think the introduction says it all, but I suspect you're expecting to listen a few more lines. I found it and spent 10 hours delighted with the game.

The last game I spent a whole Sunday playing was Breath of the Wild and before that. Great game, I played through it in one day which is very uncommon for me. My only gripe is the "twist" in the very end is a bit silly and left me thinking a majority of this conflict could have been resolved much earlier if the characters would have communicated better. There are zones where you can't just rush through or you will be punished for sure (enemies chase you outside of their screen). The gradual difficulty curve I found to be very smooth so no fight ever really felt out of place. Combat for the first few hours of the game wasn't very difficult though it was still very enjoyable and from then on it ramps up in difficulty. There is also quite a bit of humor with the little penguin henchmen who work for the shopkeep. The story is deep enough and dialogue isn't drawn out so the action is never bogged down. The pacing is fantastic, the environments are varied and never get stale. I started thinking this around 3-4 hours in. The pacing is fantastic, the environments are varied and never get Owlboy is a masterpiece.
