Is anyone else playing this? If you have PS Vita (or PS3) and enjoy 2D platforming and brawling, you owe it to yourself to check it out.
It's excellent, one of the best 2D games in recent times.

Thanks to the PS Plus discount I ended up buying it day one (something I rarely do for digital releases), and have enjoyed it; there's still some stuff I haven't figured out yet though (no spoilers please!). Nice presentation, controls feel good, things keep moving at a decent pace - some might find the ludicrous amount of references to other games and internet memes a bit much, though.

I'm not much of a speed runner (I prefer to explore stuff slowly), but I thought I saw the forum's own Warp Rattler at the top of one of the leaderboards for this game a little ways back.

Closing in on the Platinum. Hard mode is... pretty hard!

Updated the title Fez style, since apparently this is what's necessary for a niche game to get attention. And unlike Fez, Guacamelee! actually deserves it. :)

Playing it now, it's actually pretty good - silky smooth frame rate too for once.

Looks good, how do the jumps feel ?
Floaty controls on plat formers usually ruin the experience for me and make me rage quit .

Floaty is definitely not a term I'd use for the controls, this developer seems to really value smooth responsive controls

If you're going to duct-tape an incendiary phrase to the topic title to shill for the game (which, for the record, I like quite a bit), you at least ought to have the presence of mind to put it in Spanish. :P

In Mexican-Spanish it's "chupame la pinga".

Shame it ends with a stupid fucking broken boss fight. I gave up trying.
