shapez.io is an open-source automation base building game and infinite sandbox factory simulation. Players extract and process geometric shapes through conveyor belts and industrial automation to meet delivery goals within an endless map.
The project incorporates a logic circuit simulation environment, allowing for the creation of automated control systems using wiring and logic gates to optimize factory operations. It utilizes an entity-component game architecture to manage thousands of active elements across its simulation.
Gameplay covers industrial automation and resource logistics, specifically the ability to cut, rotate, merge, and paint shapes. The simulation includes tools for scaling factory layouts and infrastructure through duplication.
