Guacamelee Will Bring Flavor to PAX East

A little nom nom, a whole lotta kick punch!

There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. We blame the Tumbeasts.

Remember Juan? The guy that rocks a Luchador mask and has to save the most beautiful girl in the world? He’s the star of DrinkBox Studios’ upcoming open-world, Mexican themed, Metroidvania style title: Guacamelee. At the Sony’s Pub Fund Pub Crawl it was revealed to IndieGames’ writer (John Polson) that Guacamelee would be playable at PAX East 2012. I consider this one of the best things to come out of the tales of GDC.

She has a serious addiction; an illness if you may, of loving ridiculous games. She has been through an extensive digital rehabilitation, but we fear her addiction is surfacing again.
