What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“ShapeHero Factory is an ambitious game designed to let players enjoy the most exciting part of factory building—the early stages—again and again, with endless replayability. Our top priority is to refine the controls and game balance based on valuable feedback from players, ensuring that this core experience stays engaging and fun throughout.

This game is designed to bring fresh excitement and deeper enjoyment to those already familiar with the genre. For newcomers, we're confident that it will be the perfect first step, offering a fun and engaging introduction that will draw you in right from the start.

We decided to release the game in Early Access because we’re truly committed to working together with our players. By listening to your feedback and ideas, we believe we can create a more immersive and exciting game experience for everyone.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The early access period will last for at least 4 months. We may extend this period if additional development is needed based on player feedback. Please note that we plan to continue regular updates even after the early access period ends.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“There will be no changes to the core gameplay.

Our top priority during early access will be adjusting game balance and improving controls based on player feedback.
We are exploring the possibility of adding content such as the following:

New Research Trees
New Heroes
New Relics
Additional Surprise Events

In addition, we are exploring the possibility of introducing new masters and implementing game modes that have been highly requested by our community.

Please note that the priorities and specific implementations of these features may change based on feedback and development progress. We look forward to hearing from you!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“All core game systems are complete, and the game already offers a substantial amount of content to enjoy.
Support for controllers, various resolutions, and additional platforms, as well as further game balance adjustments based on your feedback, will be implemented in the future.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We’re planning to increase the price upon the 1.0 release as additional content and features are added.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Join us on Steam discussions or our Discord server (links can be found on our store page or in-game). We value community feedback and plan to incorporate it into our development. We've already made many improvements to the early access version based on the valuable feedback we received from the demo. We welcome your suggestions, bug reports, and any other feedback.”

About This Game

On a blank scroll spread out on top of a desk in an old house in a quiet alley, a teeny tiny battle is about to begin...
Create heroes with the help of your Minions, and enter the Book of Magic!

ShapeHero Factory fuses aspects of factory builders, roguelites, and tower defense games.
The Great Calamity sealed within the Book of Magic is awakening. To defeat and re-seal it, you will need to use the power of adorable Minions to create tiny heroes from the magic scroll.

This is a wave-based tower defense game. Build a factory to mass-produce heroes and prevent your gates from being demolished.
You will not be able to command your heroes directly. The only thing you can do is build your factory. Nothing more.
Each wave of enemies will be stronger than the last. Use the unique artifacts (facilities) that you earn as rewards to reinforce your factory and stand your ground. You must survive every grueling battle and defeat The Great Calamity that awaits you at the end.

Transport basic shapes from the scroll to assemble your heroes with different combinations. Circles with triangles will make soldiers, while circles and squares make sprites. Add squares to soldiers to give them shields. Perhaps you could create stronger heroes by combining soldiers together...

The Great Calamity lies deep within the Book of Magic. To bar your heroes from invading, his forces will come to demolish your gates. Maintain the defense while you forge ever deeper into the book. The servants of The Great Calamity each has its own method of attack, so you must choose the right hero for the job.

Obtain rewards from a randomly generated list of options after winning battles.
Will you unlock new artifacts (facilities), or upgrade your existing ones?
As you continue making these tricky decisions, you will create a wholly unique factory!
The choices that each author (playable character) will face as well as the types of heroes that they can create are different, so you need to challenge a different "factory-building" each time you play.
