Shapeland

Shapeland is a single-player adventure in a small open world, where you avoid enemy shapes and hazards while shooting targets, collecting pick-ups, and opening portals and walls. You have one weapon and no power-ups. The game focuses on competing for the fastest times or highest scores, though you can also explore at your own pace.

Move through the world

You can walk, sprint, dash, jump and float across a low-gravity landscape. Certain shapes and items let you fly through levels, and boats travel on water and sometimes through the air. The world sits inside a glass box divided into quadrants by walls. Find keys called Eggs to open portals and lower walls, changing the landscape and revealing treasures and more portals. Your goal is to reach the top of the game world, outside the box.

There are seven levels and a bonus level. Enemies and hazards are scattered throughout, including Hunter shapes that pursue you. Contact with an enemy or hazards such as deep water ends the round and sends you to The Room, where you can see your score, final time, collected trophies and bonus awards before trying again.

Targets and scores

A day-and-night cycle affects which targets appear: some are available only at certain times, while others appear randomly. Some targets are worth more when shot from a particular position, such as when they are not over water. Roaming enemies can destroy valuable pick-ups, so reaching them early matters when you are aiming for a high score.

You can race through the world for the fastest time or use strategy and stealth to pursue the highest score and collect trophies. Many trophies and achievements can be earned on more than one level. The game also has a few puzzles that can substantially increase your score, though solving them is not necessary to reach the end.

Endings and exploration

There are two endings to choose from. The first available ending is for speed-focused play, while the final ending is for players pursuing the highest score. You can also find a safe place to relax and watch the sunset.
