I imagine that (although it's good) Child of Light is game that people will look back on and wonder why they ever rated it so high.
Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is a good game and I enjoyed it. Never seem more than the sum of it's parts though. Not sure which I enjoyed the most out of that or Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze.
A large chunk of Guacamelee felt too easy for me, when it did get tougher it was mainly the combat that got tougher rather than the platforming (Though there were some tricky platforming moments to find secrets and towards the end). Its metroidvainia structure seemed very linear and unremarkable.
I don't want to pure on the negativity because it is a great game, and being an indie game it's a great accomplishment to rival the likes of DK:TF (Which is also a great game that gets too much praise from some people IMHO). It reminds me of how (At least a few months ago) everyone seemed to think Rayman Legends was one of the greatest platform games of all time. I really liked Rayman Legends but lets not get carried away.
I loved Stick It To The Man more than Guacamelee.
