Planned Release Date: 2026

About This Game

This is how the game starts. 

So many questions! Can you solve this challenge? Why is this challenge the way it is? Why are you playing as π, the symbol that represents the ratio between a circle's circumference and its diameter? What does this all have to do with "AGENCY"?

OK listen, yes, we made a weird game. No, we did not make this to hurt you. The word "weird" in this case just means "different", not "bad". We made a game that makes you think and feel, that is centered around a theme. We did it because we thought you will enjoy trying to figure out the game and answering those questions above.

We will release AGENCY later this year, in 2026. It will be affordable. But between now and release, we have to convince you to add this to your wishlist. So we'll try and you will let us know if we succeed (by clicking on the "Add to your wishlist" button).

SO MANY DIFFERENT CHALLENGES

The brief video above is just one challenge, in the prologue level. There are eight more levels of unique challenges, with different rules and mechanics. Really different. Not just a variation of the same mechanic. I mean, just look at the screenshots. Do they all look the same to you? We seriously stressed ourselves up to come up with different challenges that are fun and fit the theme.

THERE IS A POINT TO ALL OF THESE, WE PROMISE

Speaking of the theme, there's a point to it all, to the challenges, the π avatar, the environment design, and everything else. There is a message in this game, something that we think is important for anyone. But it's not even a message where the game asks you to go do something, like say "hello" to your neighbors.

The message is gentle. It is meant to be both a reminder and an exploration. 

We are not going to tell you what the theme is, but you can piece it together from the game title and by paying attention to what goes on in the game itself. We figured it would be more fun that way.

THERE IS A DEMO THAT WE KEEP UPDATING

We have a demo that includes the prologue and level 1. You will know you are in level 1 when the game tells you that you are in level 1. In earlier versions of this Steam page, we did not do a good job of communicating this so we had a few players who did not know and gave up after playing a few minutes. They might have thought that the whole game was just the prologue. Obviously, we are heartbroken about losing them.

We are constantly updating this demo with bug fixes, tweaks to the challenges, and even tweaks to the music and sounds. We will continue to do this even after AGENCY is released. If you are afraid of spending your hard-earned money on something that you might not like, give the demo a try and find out if the game is to your taste.

But if you are the kind of person who likes to experience the game once it is completely released, give us a wishlist. That way, you will be notified when it is out.

AUDIO BY AURALNAUTS

The musical score and sound design in AGENCY is the work of the exceptional and scarily talented Craven M., co-founder of Auralnauts and the composer/producer behind Auralnauts Music. Craven is so good that his summer synthwave version of "Ice Ice Baby" was re-uploaded to Vanilla Ice's official YouTube channel.

Craven has created excellent music and sounds for each level, with very careful consideration of their underlying themes. The audio and the gameplay really feed into each other in the most positive sense of the word "feed". You will have the best possible sonic experience accompanying you as you play the game.

OTHER THINGS ABOUT THE GAME THAT YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW

• AGENCY is all about the gameplay. You'll dive in fast and after that, it is just pure gameplay. 

• AGENCY is a short game. The full game might take you between 2 to 4 hours to complete. It really depends on how quickly you figure out the rules to the challenges, how skilled you are, and how much of a completionist you are. If you are fully familiar with the game, you might be able to speedrun the whole thing in less than an hour.

• AGENCY combines 2D and 3D. The game plays with a fixed top-down perspective. But the world is a 3D world and the different levels make use of 3D. The result of this is a visually stunning world made better by the awesome music and sound. Your depth perception might be tested.
