Guacamelee!
is an Metroidvania action-platformer game developed by Drinkbox Studios. You
will play as Juan Aguacate, a Mexican who sets
out to save the world when the El Presidente's daughter is
kidnapped by Carlos Calaca, the
Evil Charro Skeleton. The story is based on Mexican culture, and takes place in and
around a small village in Mexico.

You can swap
between the dimension of “The
Living World” and “The Dead World”.
At the
beginning of the story, Juan was nothing but a agave farmer, then he realizes his destiny as the luchador hero of Pueblucho. Though the story
is cliché, it’s good enough because there are other things in the game that are fascinating – such as its unique and gorgeous art style.
The other thing is the
combat system. It consists of melee
attacks such as punches, grapples and throws. You will unlock more powers as you play, such as uppercuts, a mid-air dodge
roll, ground pounds and
chicken power (turning to a chicken). These will help in fighting and traversing the environment.
This game is not released yet, but I really wish to play it!!! Here is the trailer:
