It goes without saying, but we’re incredibly thankful to our Kickstarter supporters, wish-listers, and Discord community members.

Stay tuned here for updates and future announcements.

Welcome to Eagle Island!

We’ve received some great news ahead of announcing our launch date!

Eagle Island was on display for a record-breaking attendance at MomoCon 2019. Over 39,000 gaming and animation fans made their way through the convention centre to play titles including a brilliant lineup of indie developed projects.

YouTuber Jesse Cox hosted the 5th Annual Indie Games Showcase recognising 20 indie titles on the showroom floor. The judges, Rami Ismail (Vlambeer), Mike Fahey (Kotaku), Chris Carter (Destructoid), Austin Wood (PC Gamer), and Janet Garcia (IGN), gather to select the top 5 games at MomoCon 2019! Amongst the standouts, Eagle Island was named an “Indie Winner!”

It’s an honour to be awarded and include with other great titles.

We’re really, really excited to get the launch Eagle Island. Stay tuned - launch date will be announced very soon. 😁

Eagle Island is on the way - it’s HAPPENING!

It’s safe to say we underestimated the amount of time behind proper QA and testing, but the support we’ve had in the past year has been.. owl-mazing - thank you to those in the Discord and on Twitter for joining our high-spirited community.

With an official demo now available on Steam, we’re on track to speaking publicly to a very exciting launch date announcement in the coming weeks! After taking Eagle Island to conventions and putting it in the hands of reviewers, soon Koji and Quill will be available for everyone to play at home.



If you haven’t yet - get your hands on the demo! Every run generates a new map - who knows what you’ll come across on your next crawl.

Keep an eye out for the Eagle Island launch trailer and date in the coming weeks! Thanks for sharing the experience with me.

Hey there, prospective falconers!

Eagle Island is finally feature complete! I just need to get through the testing phase to ensure the product you receive is bug-free and super smooth!



If you want to join the community, chat with other fans or testers, or even myself (I'm Nick), hop into the Eagle Island Discord server.



Here's a recap of what you'll find in the game:

• 9 biomes, with a total of 16 visually different environments
  
• An impressive and unique level generation system
  
• Story mode with 19 procedurally generated levels
  
• Rogue mode with 16 configured run styles
  
• 85 runestone perks to randomize your character build
  
• 10 main bosses, and 3 special story mode boss battles
  
• Each main boss has 4 difficulty settings, making future encounters more intense
  
• Boss Rush mode, which is crazy fun
  
• Weekly Speedrun mode, where you can challenge other players to the fastest completion time on a short run
  

I tried so hard, but we have just missed the window for releasing in 2018. This is disappointing for all of us, but it does mean I can spend a little time giving the game that extra layer of polish before a launch in the new year!

GIF heavy post!



Quill and his owl, Koji, are exploring Eagle Island and attempting to rescue the magical Totem birds from a monstrous eagle. You can see Totem Zephara above!



These boars are causing quite the commotion!



Deep in the mines Quill and Koji find a rickety old mine cart track. You'll need quick reactions to launch Koji as you hurtle into danger!



Treasure chests containing perks are strewn across the levels. Here, Quill has collected the dangerous Flame Strike perk which sets the ground ablaze when using the fire attack!



Here Quill and Koji have to navigate a gauntlet of angry sea urchins before finding a locked door. To open it, they have to activate the combo crystals on the ceiling.



No game is complete without big bad bosses. This angry scorpion is one of 10 bosses to be found in the game! Watch out for his fire attacks!
