✦ AI summary

SHAPE SHIFTER offers powerful creative tools with a robust level editor and logic system that players praise for enabling everything from simple platformers to complex custom mechanics, backed by a developer notably responsive to community feedback. The main draw is user-generated content through the workshop, though some players note the official campaign is limited with only a few demo levels. Players describe it as highly engaging and recommend it for those who enjoy creative building and custom level design, though they warn it can be extremely time-consuming.

So... I showed a tiny bit of interest in modding this game and guess what? The developer added mod support. That level of dedication is admirable. If you want a developer that actually listens to the community, this is it. The level editor is a beast. You can create anything from a simple platformer to a fully functional claw machine (because why not), or the hardest Kaizo levels that will make you want to throw your monitor out the window. But the real magic is the logic system, with the new mod support, the ceiling for creativity is basically non-existent. I’ve personally been able to build custom inspectors and even a custom skin system for the shapes. Whether you want to play through the workshop’s creative levels or build your own complex logic-driven masterpieces, Shape Shifter is a playground that keeps on giving. 10/10, would get addicted again.

Has been almost over a year since release with only 4 cannon levels, all being demos and the rest made by the players. And the tutorial basically stops at Demo 3 because less arrows appear.
