Guacamelee! is a vibe all around. The music and art direction is phenomenal, and I love how fluid the abilities are in both combat and platforming. It feels really good to combo attacks and stunlock enemies while hurling them across the room. The brevity of the Gold edition is refreshing compared to the beefier Super Turbo Championship Edition, and it's fun seeing the differences between the versions in real time. It was a nice challenge with keyboard and mouse without feeling overly janky. Try it out!

It's a metroidvania with beat 'em up combat and they go hand in hand. A lot of the unlocked abilities add movement which naturally opens up the map. There's a certain charm to the stereotypical locals and even the now dated references got a chuckle out of me. You can mix up combos without having to really learn anything and the enemy types are varied enough. My only gripe is the post game difficulty spike. Orb 3 can ♥♥♥♥ right off. Also it turns out Gold Edition isn't the definitive edition. Whoops.

O Metroidvania de macho! O foco aqui é total no combate. Lutas, combos, etc. É tudo muito bem executado e super satisfatório. Os itens “chave” são todos movimentos que podem ser utilizados durante as lutas. Os locais onde você precisa usar eles pra avançar ficam todos marcados no mapa, o que tira um pouco daquela sensação de “ficar perdido” que é o charme de todo metroidvania. Não que isso diminua o jogo, pelo contrário, depois de ter jogado tantos jogos desse gênero é até bom ver um que vai por um caminho diferente. Ele só não é um metroidvania “tradicional”, se assim podemos dizer. Enfim, esse jogo é um clássico dos jogos indie. Recomendo!

This is what Metroidvania games need to aspire to. This is one of the best Metroidvania i ever play. There is too much to love. The controls feel precise and give pleasure to fight. I have these Beat Me up mechanics that are beautiful. Fighting never feels like a lug, on the contrary, it feels wonderful. Platform sections are engaging, almost to the Celeste type of engaging. I’m Mexican, and I never feel that the cultural representation was cringed or made me uncomfortable. On the contrary, some things feel very local. Humor is great, even if it is full of 2010s meme stuff, it still makes you laugh. Music is very good, the way that changes when you go to the other world feels very natural and keeps you intrigued. The story is interesting enough to keep you remembering details and carrying about the characters. It doesn't take it seriously but also most of the jokes don't feel forced and the interactions between characters are funny. It has some sexual innuendo moments that are funny. The only jokes I have, but they are a product of their time, is the goat screaming. Idk why 2010s have a fixation around this. Recently I played a metroidvania called Blast bridge and I hate it. That game was made 10 years after this one and the quality of levels and gameplay don't even scratch Guacamelee. So Metroidvania + Beat’Me Up + Precision Platformer = Perfect game. I feel so bad that there is only one sequel, which is at the same quality, if not better than this one. I wish there was a whole genre of Metroidvania + Beat’Me Up + Precision Plataformer. Years later, I still feel fresh.

Отличная метроидвания. плюсы: 1) Платформинг заставляет комбинировать все способности, что есть у персонажа, из-за этого он ощущается очень динамичным. 2) Боёвка интересная, присутствует механика с щитом, который пробивается определённой атакой, заставляя использовать все приёмы персонажа. 3) Визуал простой, но стильный. 4) Музыка кайфовая. 5) Боссов мало, но они интересные и немного напрягают. Минусы: 1) В игре присутствуют две сложности, и по задумке разработчиков, сначала надо пройти "легкую" сложность, на которой все боссы, кроме последнего проходятся за 2 попытки, а после откроется "трудная" сложность, на которой боссы становятся трудными и реально ощущаются боссами. Ключевое отличие сложностей это боссы, и не вижу смысла играть с слабыми боссами, поэтому "легкая" сложность не нужна, она просто растягивает игру. Итог: однозначно рекомендую.
