Owlboy

The 2D action platformer with a ton of heart and great gameplay took a while to finally release. With development starting in 2007, much of the delay could be attributed to D-Pad Studio scrapping things and starting from scratch again and again. Despite this and the studio working on another game called Savant Ascent in the meantime, Owlboy released in November 2016 to rave reviews.
