Our reader Dan Rutstein has spotted an interesting Steam entry, suggesting that Guacamelee! (a Sony exclusive indie game) will be coming to the PC. Set in a world inspired by Mexican culture, Guacamelee! features a down-on-his-luck agave farmer named Juan Aguacate, who sets out to save the world when El Presidente’s Daughter is kidnapped by an Evil Charro Skepeton.
