The word "Guacamelee" looked indecipherable when I first spotted it on a sign in the indie games booth at the big PAX East show this weekend. I sounded it out. And then I was smitten.

Guacamelee turns out to be the perfect word to describe a Mexican-folklore-themed brawler from the creators of Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack (otherwise known as Drinkbox Studios, otherwise known as the people who have dramatically improved their ability to name a video game.)

We shot a video of the upcoming game while Chris from Drinkbox told us what it's all about (He calls it a Metroidvania, FYI). Enjoy.

No release date yet, targeting consoles, PC and maybe Vita.
