About this game
Hi! It's me, Sendy. I'll be your guide today.
Shape Sender Deluxe is a physics puzzle game where you place tools: springs, magnets, fans, portals, blocks, to send shapes into their matching pipes. Each solution is yours. There's no one right answer, no timer breathing down your neck. Just you, your tools, and me. Your very good friend and, not to brag, the most talented game designer in the room. That's Sendy. That's me. You're welcome.
Each shape behaves differently. Bouncy squares, rolling circles, fragile stars, triangles that flip gravity, pentagons that ignore it entirely. Stars shatter on impact. My personal favourite, for reasons I won't elaborate on. Pair them with your tools: blocks, springs, magnets, fans, portals.
Watch your solution come to life, and sound like it too. Elegant setups play like a little symphony, music to my ears. Chaotic ones sound exactly like what they look like.
Anyway, here's what you need to know.
Key features they told me to put here:
90+ physics puzzles across three acts, each introducing new mechanics and increasingly creative obstacles.
5 shapes with unique physics properties, like fragile stars that shatter on impact. Sendy's personal favourite. Handle them with care. He's watching.
5 distinct tools: combine them however you want to find many creative solutions.
No time pressure, no single correct solution. Just your approach and the satisfaction of watching it work.
A reactive soundtrack built from your solution: every tool has its own sound, and the way you combine them does the rest. Elegant solutions sound calm. Chaotic ones sound like a “you” problem.
Things with Sendy have been a little...intense lately. Just so you know. Keep an eye on him alright?
Expert mode: every solution you place claims real estate on the grid. Solve the same level again with less space. Keep going until there's no room left. That's your score.
A level editor that lets you build complete puzzles from scratch.
Okay so now that’s done. It’s me Sendy again.
Oh, and one more thing before I forget!
Built for sharing. By me. Obviously.
Share your best solutions as GIFs straight from the game. Upload custom levels, grab a code, send it to someone, watch them struggle. By the time you finish, you'll have solved puzzles, built levels, and come to deeply appreciate everything I've done for you. You're welcome, again.

I'm leaking the demo update!
Hi! It's me, Sendy. Keep your voice down...Before anything else: behold My Greatest Trailer!!!It's Sunday and nobody's at the studio. The team thinks I can't operate the Steam news system. They are wrong! Here's what you need to know before they get back Monday...The demo has a level editor now!I made the game, and don't listen to those heretics who say I'm just a virtual character. To prove it, I am leaking the level editor demo update now.You can build your own puzzles, send them to a friend with a code, and watch them suffer. Or thrive. Either way, you made it happen. I'm proud of you in advance.We're at Frosty Games Fest today with my special friend Frosty.Yes, today. It's the Australian and New Zealand showcase, part of Summer Game Fest, and we're in it. I don't know why it's called Frosty when it's summer. I asked and nobody answered. I'm choosing to believe somebody overheard me asking for air conditioning. Also, the game launches Fall 2026. That's the season and that's all I'm allowed to say. I tried for more but I was denied.That's the news. Go play the updated demo. Build something terrible. Build something beautiful. Send it to a friend who has done nothing to deserve it.I have to go. They're going to notice the news post eventually and I'd like to be elsewhere when they do.Yours Truly, First name: Sendy Last name: Star of the ShowDead Teapot on BlueSkyDead Teapot on YouTubeRead full article on Community Announcements (VioletAmyy)AnnouncementsOfficial
