Shape Sweeper puts you in charge of robotic vacuum collectors that gather geometric shapes, with progression built on merging bots into stronger units and unlocking upgrades across dual tech trees. The core loop is straightforward numbers-driven idle play with individual bot customization, making it suitable for background play alongside other activities. Players note the pacing can feel front-loaded despite solid mechanics, though the simplified interface keeps things accessible.

Short and fun increamental game. Tbh progression can be artificially slowed x10 (and the lower half of tree even more) and game will still be good. Though ui has its problems: having no access to settings without having to leave the current game isn't nice.
Quick Take: A relaxing idle game with clear mechanics, ideal for playing while doing other tasks. It’s SIMPLE.
Gameplay: It's a simple "Numbers go up" game. You upgrade your cleaners using 2 types of tech trees. Each cleaner also has its own individual upgrade menu and to top it off you can merge cleaners of the same level to boost their stats.
Pros: ☑ Intuitive controls ☑ Clear objectives keep you focused
Cons: ☒ Some menus feel cluttered
Who’s It For? Casual gamers who enjoy low-effort idle games to play in the background.
Time to Learn: 5 minutes
Final Note: A great choice for stress-free multitasking fun.
This is just a small patch. Last patch i had reports of some users not being able to use the Rebirth button. I have fixed this issue. I am also currently aware of some other tech tree issues relating to some upgrades and other problems with the current circuit tree. I will try to solve those ASAP. Thanks!
Below are the changes for this update. Please note that your OLD save file may not function correctly and you may need to start a new game. - Rainbow Shapes, Roombas & related Upgrades. - Scroll Wheel Zoom in/out for tech tree. - All upgrades that reward the user with just 'Points'.
Small update to address a few issues. - Tech tree panning. Before this update sometimes panning in the tech tree was hard to do as "Right Clicking" was not called correctly - Readability of most TEXT in the game. - The game will no longer pause when a UI popup activates. E.G, Leveling up, Tech tree window, etc - Auto Merge Button. Added a auto merge button as it became hard to merge your PolyBots in the late game.
