Drinkbox Studios might be a newcomer to the indie scene, but after two games, they’ve proven themselves. Now they are set to light some firecrackers under your rears. Here comes a new challenger, Guacamelee! Luche Libre! Reviewer Eric Kelly reviews Guacamelee!
‘Guacamelee!’ takes place in a fictional Mexican setting where you play as an Agave farmer who is about ready to go into town and meet his old friend when he is murdered by the evil spirit from the underworld, Calaca. Upon arriving in the Land of the Dead, you come upon a sacred Luchadore mask that revives you and gives you the powers of a mystical Luchadore. Your goal is to stop Calaca from destroying the world and making it his own.
The PS4 has a killer roster of incredible platformers. Ranging from simple 2D platformers to vibrant 3D platforming games.
No mention of Astrobot on the VR, one of the best platform titles Sony have put out
Guacamelee is an amazing Metroidvania series with a fun story and beautiful graphics. Check out Jason's Nindie Spotlight on this gem that highlights its unique art style and fantastic boss fights..
Chirag Pattni discusses some of the best Metroidvania titles to be released this generation.
Hollow Knight is really good. GreenPath was my favorite area of the game.
Guacamelee 1 was also good. I got to check out G2.
In my opinion Guacamelle 2 is even better than first..hopefully we will get third game
I highly recommend TimeSpinner. It's on everything now but I played and platinum'd it on PS4. Excellent classic style MV with a cool 'time' element and hidden secrets, bosses, multiple ending/outcomes, etc. 9/10 from me.
