GameZebo: The New Year is newborn, and that means a lot of resolutions. You may have resolved to lose weight, or find a new job, or pay back that angry loaner who’s been threatening your kneecaps for the better part of a month now, but guess what? Monsters make resolutions, too.
Dustin from Denkiphile: "FobTi Interactive’s recent title, Obludia, attempts to deliver a top-down, classic arena action game, that revolves around the simple objective to defeat hordes of enemies with a variation of weapons, spells and companions. I’ve always had a love for titles like Obludia, as a child, I played arcade action games religiously and this title definitely reminded me of looking for flash games on my dated computer. My expectations may have been set a little to high, Obudia has a lot going for it, the overall game mechanics function quite well and provide mindless entertainment, but certain functions took away from an otherwise decent indie game."
Your Van Helsing looking character has to kill things because of… uhh, there is no plot… because he’s in a dungeon and that’s what you do in those places.
Your enemies range from cute ickle spiders to what looks like Orko from He-Man

"A game developer once told me that you cannot design a game without being inspired by other similar games and this truly shows in this comparison. Obludia clearly shows that the basic concept of the game is similar to The Binding of Isaac, as it is to many other games, however I do not feel like it is an exact clone of Edmund McMillen’s game."
