Indies

Since the release of the first Guacamelee!, and also the lesser known Mutant Blobs Attack, Drinkbox Studios has become one of the premiere indie game studios. Known for their signature art style of bright contrasting colors with a simplistic but also superb aesthetic, they’ve caught the attention of many fans. Following up the more experimental touch-based game Severed, Drinkbox has returned the world of luchadors and fighting chickens with Guacamelee! 2. At first glance, it might look like a pretty basic retread of the original with beat’em up combat and a drip feed of new moves and abilities. Look past the surface though, and Guacamelee! 2 is much more than a simple revamp of its predecessor with a fresh coat of paint.
