Eagle Island Alpha Preview: Too Early to Take Flight

8055
For many players, the first thing that stands out about Eagle Island will undoubtedly be its striking resemblance to Owlboy. That’s a shame, because Eagle Island is very much its own game. Although the pixel art platformer is still in alpha, it has the bones of a potential hit. I played through the demo, and — in spite of…
