Installing shapez CE
shapez Community Edition is a community-maintained fork of shapez, a factory simulation game by tobspr Games. As of September 2025, most changes are related to build tooling or game internals and are not visible to the regular player.
However, the Community Edition introduces a new (work in progress) mod format which allows mod authors to create more complex mods. More information about ASAR mods can be found in the modding guide.
If you have one or more savegame files from the upstream (official) version of shapez, you can convert them here.
Currently this website does not host built versions of shapez CE, but you can always obtain a fresh
copy of the game by cloning the shapez CE repository and following the build
instructions. After finishing the clone you can always update your repository with the latest
changes by running git pull.
