ShapeHero Factory News

Updated to v0.10.0.

Here we are with the 2nd Major Update.
This update brings the highly anticipated Endless Mode (β). Please keep in mind that this mode is currently in beta for two reasons:

1. We wish to refine this content with your feedback, guiding us toward its final form.
2. We've identified some performance concerns. As gameplay progresses, the processing load may increase, which could impact the playability. We appreciate your patience as we resolve these issues in upcoming updates.

In addition to Endless Mode, we've also received requests to extend the total number of waves. This is something we are considering addressing as well. For now, we will first monitor the performance of Endless Mode before deciding whether to increase the number of waves further.
We truly appreciate your feedback and look forward to hearing your thoughts.

[Added]
・Introduced Endless Mode (β), available after unlocking it at "Arcane Knowledge."
・Added a scoring feature; scores are now displayed in the record view.

・Added "Big Composite Divider" and "Giant Composite Divider" to the Research Tree "Layout Hub".
・Included "Composite Cross Conveyor" in the Research Tree "Pipe Infrastructure," and removed "Reverse Pipe."
・Added an option to prevent gameplay speed from resetting to default at the start of a battle.

[Adjustments]
・Adjusted to display HP when hovering over the HP bar.
・Revised the Inventory UI for better differentiation between the Favorite tab and other tabs.
・Added an unlock animation for new equipment obtained from the Research Tree.

[Hardware Support]
・Added support for 16:10 resolution.
・Enabled controller support.
・Enabled Steam Deck support.
・Enabled Mac support. (Controller not supported on Mac)

[Bug Fixes]

Hello everyone!

[h3]The Seasonal Update we briefly announced last week is now live! 🎉✨[/h3]

⏳Wednesday, April 16 ~ Friday, May 9, 2025 12:00 (JST)

[h2]1️⃣ Limited-Time Challenge Mode: EGG RUSH[/h2]
In this challenge mode, you will have access to a special “Egg Painting Canvas,” an event-exclusive item that allows you to produce Easter eggs🥚
You can create Easter eggs by combining shapes ○ △ □ with any color of ink🎨
The eggs produced will be sent to the portal like other heroes, and you can earn scores based on your Eggs production.
Eggs made with Mixed Ink will yield a higher score!
Unlike the normal gameplay, your goal here is to produce as many eggs as possible—however, the EGG WILL NOT BE A PART OF THE BATTLE😱
It is also important to maintain a certain level of unit strength to defeat the enemies!

*note: The difficulty level is set to Ascension 0

[h2]2️⃣ Limited-time Egg-themed lobby and character skins![/h2]
For a limited time, the lobby, minions and some of the heroes' skins will have a generous dose of Easter egg vibe🎨
Which heroes are dressed up for the occasion? Play the game to find out! 😋


[h2]3️⃣ New "Memory Album" Feature to review Your achievements![/h2]
The “Memory Album” is now a permanent feature that allows you to check your previous Steam achievements⭐️
“EGG RUSH” will award you GOLD, SILVER, and BROZE crowns based on the score you achieve in a single gameplay session!

These crowns will be permanently displayed in the “Events” tab of the “Memory Album.”
One of the perks of supporting indie games from early access🥰

Oh look at the minions...
They're staring at us as if they want to paint eggs in the factory you create🏭
Ah those eggshell-wearing creatures...🥹
(Wait, this scene feels strangely familiar...)

Minions are ready to paint yo' eggs in your factory 👀

Updated to v0.9.3

This update includes several adjustments to align with seasonal content.
As part of the seasonal update, we have prepared a Challenge Mode that takes a different direction from previous ones. We hope you will find it engaging.

The next update is planned to introduce an Endless Mode (still in development...).

We will continue to improve Shapehero Factory step by step and appreciate your continued support.
