Unique Automation Base Defense Roguelike! | Let's Try ShapeHero Factory

Play the Demo / Wishlist ShapeHero Factory: store.steampow...
ShapeHero Factory is a game that fuses the factory simulation, roguelite, and tower defense genres. Use different shape combinations to mass-produce a variety of heroes, who will then fight all on their own. All you need to worry about is building the optimal factory to manufacture them.
The Let's Try series is a way to preview / review games in order to get my first impressions through the first moments of gameplay.

Ah, one of my favourite genres. Spaghetti management.

[@kazuya3821]

I played the game and I absoutely loved it. Looking forward to full release. One minor issue I had was that the runs are really RNG heavy and depending on which research trees you unlock at the start, its either going to be a breeze or a struggle.

[@Jaden7328]

it increases replayability, btw i think clone + chosen sword is best

[@kazuya3821]

@@Jaden7328 seems like it would be pretty good. By itself, the sword is quite bad. Unit spawn rate is just abysmal. Personally, the teleporters and advanced splitters/joiners are the best.

[@Jaden7328]

@@kazuya3821 you can set it up so that the cloners feed into themselves and dupe infinitely. maxed you would get about 1 champion per second

[@celestirr]

The demo is easy enough that you wouldn't struggle too much. The Let's Players running this are over relying on the basic punchy heroes and having problems. I won my first game taking a singular hit during the run and I just grabbed every unit I could. My opening relic was the scissors.. which did nothing for me until I unlocked horses which let me laugh at the bomb boss. Def gonna buy it.

This was a lot of fun to watch. The little guys are super cute. I wouldn't mind seeing more of this game.

[@lskillzI]

This game is so much fun, can't wait for the full release. It's like Factorio meets Slay the Spire meets tower defense in a really unique way.

[@StonedtotheBones13]

I love the lil guys 🥺 I'm not usually super into these personally, but those sure are some cute creatures. And interesting mechanics too!

[@Jaden7328]

spamming archers is one of the best strats

[@mica4977]

This does look fun and I enjoy the cute artstyle

[@mitchellanderson5785]

I feel as though the splitters and joiners could've saved a lot of space and resources. lol

[@aabuyaa]

should hv build the lines spaced out so you have more room to grow.. instead of trying to fit everything in one big group. love your vids retro

[@GrenDrake]

This is really looking like it'll be an interesting game to play!

[@pizzafuture]

Hero factory? *Produced to remember lego hero factory*

[@prismaturtle8457]

This looks really cool
