Game Watch: Guacamelee!
Here’s a hot new indie game to pick up pronto: Guacamelee! Ever wanted to play a Metroidvania-style game as a luchador? No? Well you should, because Guacamelee, the latest game from Drinkbox Studios, is a high-octane, super-colorful downloadable PSN game for PS3 and Vita ($14.99). It’s packed full of references to other video games and pop culture, as well as having tight game mechanics and excellent controls. If you’ve been looking for a Metroidvania fix, then I’d highly recommend Guacamelee. It satisfies that itch and does so with style! It also has dimension-switching and you can turn into a chicken. Still on the fence? Check out some footage from Giant Bomb below.
