160: Guacamelee 2

from The Short Game · host The Short Game

In this, the year of too many Metroidvanias (jk there can never be too many Metroidvanias) Drinkbox returns with a long awaited sequel to their 2013 action platformer hit Guacamelee. (We covered Guacamelee way back in episode 37, and their dungeon crawler slice-em-up Severed in episode 108. If you played Guacamelee and (like us) you wished for more of it then you’ll find lots to love in Guacamelee 2. The formula is essentially unchanged from the first game, but with lots of tweaks and additions large and small. It’s no secret that we love Drinkbox, and the Guacamelee series deserves your attention even when the feast or famine that is the exploration action platformer genre turns to feast mode as it has in 2018. Guacamelee 2 is available on PC/Steam and PS4, with other platoforms likely but not announced. What’s making us happy this week Laura – Do Men Enter Bathtubs on Their Hands and Knees So Their Balls Hit The Water Last: An Investigation Raygan – Runaway (1984) Nate – Friendship and Baseball. Ugh. (00:00) - Guacamelee 2 (01:04:22) - What’s Making Us Happy This Week
