The premise, in the publisher's words
Explore the avian world of Eagle Island with Quill and one of his loyal owls, Koji. Discover lush forests, treacherous caverns and uncover the ruins of long lost civilizations. Finally, confront the gargantuan deity, Armaura, in a desperate attempt to rescue Ichiro from her clutches. With its falconry-based gameplay within uniquely generated worlds, Eagle Island is set to a beautifully modernized pixel art aesthetic and provides a breath of fresh air to the platforming genre.

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for 1.7 GHz, 4 GB RAM and Intel HD 4000. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 1GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Eagle Island launched on 10 July 2019, within three weeks of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Super Mario Maker 2, The Sinking City and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 2 years into the Nintendo Switch's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Super Mario Maker 2, The Sinking City, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled.
