shapez Demo

shapez.io is a factory automation puzzler that starts small and compounds fast. You place belts, splitters, mergers, and cutters to take raw shapes and combine them into progressively more complex products. Every layer unlocks new mechanics — painting, stacking, rotating — and forces you to redesign older parts of your factory to keep up.

How to play

Draw belts from resource patches to processing buildings, then back to a central hub. Each level demands a specific shape output; solve by chaining simpler machines. Bigger throughput buys faster progress.

Tips

• Plan for expansion — your first factory will be torn down
• Vertical space matters; don't clutter ground level with cosmetic belts
• Optimize bottlenecks after they form, not before
• Keep a sandbox area to prototype new mechanics
