shapez 2 is a factory automation game where we build a huge factory to make little shapes and send them into The Vortex, a big swirly thing in the middle of the map.

Why do we do this? I have no idea. What does The Vortex do with the shapes? Why does it need them? Is The Vortex some sort of super-being that must be appeased by little shapes lest it rises up to destroy us? I don't know!

Because I'm new to all this shapez factory automation stuff we have a go at the quite lengthy beginner scenario, Operator Certification. We have a series of objectives to complete, each one being a particular shape we have to fling into The Vortex (praise be unto The Vortex).

We build extractors to retrieve the shapes, we build conveyors to move them around, we can destroy bits of them, rotate them, move them onto different levels, stack them up, stack them up again and many more things too!

There are also tasks to complete which give us research points, which we can use to either upgrade things to make them more efficient or get new machines in, like the cutter.

Efficiency is the name of the game, which as you can imagine is the reason why the factory we build in The Geek Cupboard is probably quite awful, because we're not very good at efficiency. Or planning. Or logical thinking. Oh dear.

Shapez 2 is a top-down factory-building game where you extract and process geometric shapes. Each shape is its own set of building-blocks that your factories can take apart, stack, paint and put back together in unique ways. Build and automate to produce distinct shapes and solve the production challenge of each goal.

Automate the processing of abstract geometric shapes into more complex ones by cutting, rotating, stacking, painting and more. Deliver distinct shapes to unlock new technologies and expand your factory’s capabilities. Learn, improve, rebuild and solve logistical challenges to design the most efficient shape production lines.

Build in multiple interconnected layers, allowing you to compact and optimize your factories in a whole new dimension. Improve your designs to get the most benefit out of every space platform built and massively increase your production throughput.

Shapez 2 is the purest factory building game imaginable - all buildings are free, resources never run out and there are no enemies or time limits. Prepare for a 100% factory-building experience: effortlessly delete, redesign and rebuild as much as you want, with no penalties, at your own pace.

You’re always in complete control - whether the messy spaghetti belts you built 4 hours ago could use some improvements or a whole circle factory needs to go, Shapez 2 gives you the tools to do it without limitations.

Start your operation from a single asteroid and continuously expand by building new platforms. Unlock new layouts as you progress, and grow from a single belt into a massive multi-station space factory connected by space trains. Design modular blueprintable platforms to build on a massive scale, placing hundreds of buildings with just one click.

Performance is very important to us, and with the complete rewrite of Shapez 2 in a new engine, we're doing our best to make sure that massive factories run smoothly - even with the all-new 3D visuals!
