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!

Hello everyone!

Today is the day! You can officially play the shapez 2 Demo, right now! We won’t keep you any longer, you can download the Demo straight away below:

Store.steampowered.com

Watch the shapez 2 Reveal Trailer:


The Demo is available for Windows, Mac and Linux systems and requires a 2-button mouse with scroll wheel to play. Controllers are not supported right now, but will be in the future.

Please note that Demo save files will not be compatible with the Early Access version of the game, planned for later this year. Blueprint save file compatibility is likely but not guaranteed.

What to expect

The Shapez 2 Demo will feature about 2 hours’ worth of content, depending on how minimalistic or elaborate you build. However, there’s no limit to how long you can play!

Everything up to and including space platforms is unlockable, which is done by completing specified shape delivery goals. Rewards include destroyers, rotators, stackers and a second building layer to go with it. You’ll unlock basic access to blueprints to duplicate production lines or share them with your friends or the community. Most main goals come with one or more side goals that give you various upgrades and buildings to further optimize your factory with. Additionally, you’ll encounter some Demo-exclusive challenges to rack your brain over once you’ve unlocked everything!

The Demo is fully fledged with a tutorial, tips that appear while you play as well as a Knowledge Panel in case you’re stuck. It fully supports English, German, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional) and Japanese. Additionally, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Korean, Turkish, Polish, Russian and Thai are supported through community translations. Keep in mind that the quality of community translations may vary, so be sure to let us know if anything could be improved.

So far, Shapez 2 has only been available to a limited audience. This Demo finally allows us to get feedback from the broader community and will really show us what still needs to be done before we enter Early Access. The quality of the Demo is representative of the quality of the final version of the game, barring any feedback we may receive. We are very ambitious to make the Early Access version feel like a full, finished game, so your feedback on the Demo will truly be invaluable to us.

If you’d like to join the conversation and give us feedback directly, you can join the Shapez 2 Discord server! There will be a button in the game to take you there. The Steam forums are also always open for you to leave your thoughts.

A huge thank you to the community and all the supporters on Patreon for making this possible! We are super happy the shapez 2 Demo is finally publicly available, so we really hope you enjoy it. Let us know what you think!
