About This Game

Change your body. Build your soul.

You have no body of your own. The monsters surrounding you are threats—but they can also become your next chance to fight back.

Shapeless is a single-player, top-down action roguelite built around possession. Move through enemy waves, weaken monsters with your attacks, then seize a vulnerable body. Your soul build stays with you, while your firing pattern and active ability change with your host.

Six bodies. Six ways to fight.

Switch between a double-shot spread, a short-range acid spray, a charged rail shot, a wide projectile wall, crossfire, and sticky explosives.

Choose a host that suits the enemy's distance and position, combine its active ability with your attacks, and plan around the possession cooldown.

Six imprint slots. Your choice of build.

Combine upgrades such as multishot, piercing, returning projectiles, and corrosion. Each imprint offers five growth steps and branching upgrade choices.

Limited slots make both your selection and upgrade order matter.

Extract mutations. Combine two elements.

Develop a host and extract its mutation when you actively leave it for another body. Combine two equipped mutation elements, or replace one to try a different pairing.

Normal transfers preserve your soul build and equipped elements; a destroyed body clears those elements.

Explore ten stages and challenge their bosses

Begin in the Stitched Bone Garden and Rotwater Channel, then progress through a desert, volcano, snowridge, hunting woods, thunder bridge, mirror theater, factory, and final battlefield.

Search for supplies, mechanisms, host nests, and hidden clues as enemy waves grow around you. Complete stage events and face each area's boss.

Bring Soul Gold back to improve global attributes, research mutations, and prepare for another hunt. Later stages unlock as you clear earlier ones.
