Guacamelee is a cool PlayStation downloadable title from DrinkBox that is being released on PSN for PlayStation 3 and Vita. While at PAX East 2013, I had a chance to sit down with the guys over at DrinkBox and got to know more about their game. I had some hands on time in which I got to see how both versions of the game will play upon release. What I ended up finding was a title that not only drew inspiration from a lot of great examples from gaming classics, but a game that will definitely satisfy anyone who owns a PS Vita.
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..

Hollow Knight is really good. GreenPath was my favorite area of the game.
Guacamelee 1 was also good. I got to check out G2.
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.
I want to play this in my vita now
