The Agency of Decay


GOAL

Congratulations and welcome to the Agency Of Decay! You need to maintain Nootopia quality of life. To do so, you will have to take care of our dear deceased Pastabitants by rotting them. Send your best agents on site and find the right way to put the atoms back into the life cycle. Back to the roots!

The Agency of Decay is a game that brings a fresh perspective at what people are used to thinking of death, body preservation, ecological values as well as the idea of beauty in general.


ABOUT THE GAME

For our first summer jam, we've decided to merge our theme "DECAY" with the 156th Weekly Game Jam's theme "Noodle". So we thought "Hey, what's better than talking about death (something that we fear) with noodles (something that we love). And that's how The Agency of Decay was born. By the end of the game, you'll either want to eat noodles, or rot, or both.


ABOUT SAVVY COMMUNITY

A bunch of people getting together to make innovative game design experiences and talk about deep stuff through games, in a positive and joyful process.

This game was passionately made by Thomas Gonzalez, Sacha Mathelet, Eliot Trouttet, Juliette Pereira, Tom Rivière, Fred Urien and Marie Wesolek.



Special thanks to Bac, Lethae and Milo for thinking hard about the theme.

Love the concept and the artwork!

I found it a bit overwhealming to start with, big area- lots to read (about the agents) - maybe if the agents/deaths slowly unlocked as part of an inline tutorial?

Keep up the awesome work!

Thank you so much for your feedback :D yeah, maybe we can make it easier to get through it, it's a lot to process! 


Thanks for playing!

Really cute game ! 


Loved the idea and the graphic design ! It was quite hard to understand the order for the agent but fun to discover them by testing ! 


If I had just one suggestion : Working on better feedbacks ! For exemple : I had no idea the town was so big at first, so I tought my village was super clean but I had a lot of non rotten pasta :'( Or I didn't see the packaged pasta in the ground, for they were under the UI....

But overall it was very fun and really eye opening on the super power of decay ! 


Much love !
