Firstly out of topic, I feel for all people who has been through bulling as a kid or as adult. Hope you feel better and remember that you matter <3 What comes to the game it's good! I truly enjoyed the story (even though not very immersive but it is there) and the gameplay and mechanics are nicely executed and very smooth! I also can imagine this game as a chaotic CO-OP somehow! Artstyle and graphics feel finished which and the selection of abilities feels very full! I genuinely wonder why this doesn't have higher reviews or player base. My only critic is that it's just my own preference that the music (which can be turned off) is a bit distracting. Sound effects are a BAGGER tho!2 found this helpful
Game feels very nice, the mechanics are on point mostly, would wish the punches had a little bit more forward movement and a little bigger hit boxes maybe? Technical art looking very good, big up! 3D rigging and bodies look great, love the art design! 3D animations are a bit slow for the boss, and the kick hit box has a small delay after the animation finishes. Karens are kinda annoying to be honest but funny reference. Music and sound design is awesome, loved the ambience and the solo at the end! overall a very nice game, well done!1 found this helpful

WARNING: Paywalled achievements. This game has achievements that cannot be gained without financial "donations" to the developer. "Odium" is a very mediocre 3D rendered top down brawler with some really serious problems, and this time it's not just a bad game concept married to a weak technical delivery. This has some really mediocre looking graphics that will understandably be a turn off for a lot of gamers, and it's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarly visual medium, and if developers want to succeed, they must understand that it's not an area for compromise. You deserve better than compromises. In fact, disgustingly, the developer [b]paywalled the game achievements[/b]. This is absolutely gamer hostile and must never be done. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 2 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading…
No
[h1]Before I played Odium, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]
