What if a Factory Automation Game was a Roguelike?
Ойындар
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.

Man… this would make for an incredible DS game, factory on the bottom battle on the top.
Stop posting such interesting rogue likes, my wallet is burning

Olexa exuding confidence and not reading everything directly followed by sheer panic and failure *chef's kiss* Not hating, you gotta make dialogue and shif but also that was hilarious
Random Unwanted Advice: Joining two paths just to immediately split them is a bit silly, and seems like a waste of resources.

That's not necessarily true: If the inputs have wildly different rates but you want to split the output 50/50, a merge followed by a split can be just what you need, as long as the single line in between can cope with the rate of both inputs.

The combat angle gives a new form of motivation for optimizing your factory for speed and efficiency.
Thats the rule of the internet. If it exists, theres a rougelike of it.

@@shadowofdeath8000 That depends on what one means by the term "rougelike". In the more traditional sense one could call Portals of Phereon such. By traditional sense i mean the only thing you keep from "run to run" is your understanding of the game gained from previous attempts, with a lot of things being random. Not truly r34 as its not art of preexisting characters though, but a good game, really, even if you stripped all the sexrelated stuff out of it you have a combination of Battle for Wesnoth style turnbased combat with Creatures that you can catch and breed (and find interesting results of combination of crossbreeds, i believe it was magical girl crossed with centaur that gives unicorns, plantgirl and mermaid... or merewhateverthemale term is, obviously it has to be male and female respectively... or one of them futa, that would work, too. That gives its been a long time so i dont quite recall, but it gives you oxygen under water. In more recent times, many have come to understand "theres progression between things" as rougelike, when in my view thats kinda the opposite and makes a rougelike into a rougelite, but if thats what one was to mean by it, you keep assets, skills and such of the owner in Slavemaker 3 between slaves you train.

And yes, i couldve mentioned a lot more about portals of phereon such as resource management, base building, war with one of the gods, either evolution or creation, satisfying the kings demands or facing issues there,... Good as only a game not restricted by conventions could manage which well such a game is not that marketable so it isnt constrained by those conventions, and as such...

Not to say coming soon tags are bad, rather both ways of marketing a demo are fun and great to attract attention
The funny thing is- that was the entire demo! It ends when you press the next level- so... perfect timing on ending things there, haha
Every factory Player had a heart attack and died when they saw you'r factory Design
This is almost great, they just have to iron out those frustrating cases like machines not being able to output directly from one to another. Also just have a factorio-like splitter, it's one item instead of 2 and you don't have to worry about flipping it all the time. Also add a cut-and-paste for when you need to move your build a few tiles and the game will be great!
Please do more! This is a fun series! Also, it looks like a lot of outputs can’t be directly linked to other inputs, they seem to need a conveyer belt. Your horse production got stopped up because the duplicator seemed to be having this issue.
Its kinda funny you stopped right there as the demo ends the moment you try to go on :D very fun game definitely wishlisting. I ended up with some super combo of getting duplicators together with a mega unit that took a lot of time to produce, lots of choices.
This is not a gripe, just an observation: Some of the menu sounds are exactly the sound my nose does when I'm stuffed and try to unstuff it without using my hands and my mind hears this and processes "wow, my nose is stuffy, feel feverish" until it realises "Hey, my nose isn't really stuffy, stop fever" and loop.

I love how you stop right before the demo kicks u out of the run
I need more of this. I love this game.
so after playing the demo, olexa ends RIGHT as the demo ends, it ends after the first boss but ascensions exist
i was so confused during the whole mage creating tutorial oh my god what were you thinking
The system is so damn space inefficient, I was yelling at my screen for most of the damn video!
this game looks good, I just dont know if I can handle the time limit. if they remove the slow time feature and just let you build while the game was paused, I would be all over this. maybe they will make that an option at some point lol. EDIT: you mentioned shapes 2, I so cant wait for that. not sure if youve been following development, but theyve done some really neat things.

I dunno, tried the demo myself, had tons of time to do everything needed to beat the levels... like by a large margin. Even if you find yourself a bit slow I'd imagine just doing what you can in the time limit and then getting used to the patterns you'd be fine after a few attempts. I really don't think the game is as chaotically hard as Olexa makes it seem, but I guess that depends on how you plan this stuff.

FACTORY BELT GAME NUMBER 13!!!! LETS GOOOOOO!!!!
i tried the demo and it was honestly amazing
What a madman, calling „circle“ an „O“…
I won't lie, It was painful at the start but you learn fast
Great looking game. Wondering how do you find these. I love rouguelites but not good at reflex based ones ie shooters
It would be called "Plateup!"
Those genres usually NEVER permute, and competent people tried their best. the genres have mutually-exclusive gameplay mechanics in their core (loops). factory size must stay limited and mostly mobile-modules, hard constrain to fatroy-genre. combat must be separated, and be mostly auto-battler.

When he noticed he made enough normal dudes to unlock the upgraded one and he then chose not to pick it, I cringed so hard 🤣 Also the fact that he did not pick up on the fact that the odd smiley that shows up is because it cant output kinda annoyed me, but it is a understandable error, you would expect it to be able to output directly into a machine, splitter etc, so its fair that he did not know it has to be a conveyor belt Still annoying to know some parts was not working for a large part of the video 🤣
Cool shapez-like. At least, here your decisions have consequences.

I think it’s moreso something to do so you don’t have to just sit and watch it. You’re doing a borderline irrelevant amount of damage by clicking after the first wave. Your units are way stronger than your mouse. You saw by the end I would just spend the fight time in my factory refining stuff because me clicking wasn’t doing anything lol
Drop Lingo pls
I consider how useful the main bus strategy would be ⚙️
dawg, I don't think that's how you use dupers. I think, like everything else in the game, the output needs at least one conveyor.
place 2 identical producers, join them into a single path, immediately split that path in 2. GENIUS. I mean, i get it, its the time pressure, but damn that was funny.
