K J Arcade 30: The Art of Automation: Talking Shapez



On this week’s K J and A Podcast, we get shaped—by Shapez, the minimalist factory-building game that turns geometric puzzles into pixel-perfect addiction.

We dive into how this deceptively simple indie game managed to scratch all the right itches: automation, logistics, color theory, and the sweet dopamine hit of perfect symmetry.

In this episode:

  • Why it feels more relaxing than stressful

  • What Shapez gets right about complexity and pacing

  • Other games it reminded us of

If you like cozy chaos, perfect pipelines, and games that hijack your sleep schedule—this one’s for you.
