Steam Store description

The Shape of Things takes Rubik’s cube’s basic concept but focuses on real-life objects with a more soothing vibe. Game Mechanics Puzzles appear in various combinations; you need to find the correct position for each piece by rotating, panning, or scaling until you find the shape of things. Game Controls Click on each piece of the puzzle to select it individually Click outside the shapes to select the whole puzzle and change the point of view Hold Left click and move the mouse to Left or Right to Rotate, Pan, or Scale depending on the action of the shape. Just like in real life, mystery worlds are trapped in gachapon waiting for their release, by solving puzzles you obtain in-game coins which can be spent on the gacha machine to release your next world. Game Features No pressure, no timers, just chill, progress at your own pace. Easy to pick up and put down. Adjust your cozy room mood by changing the weather and the time of the day. Comfy to play by using only 1 hand (The other hand is for a hot drink!) Pleasing sound effects and atmosphere. Original soothing background music. Good for just chatting and streaming with your community! Play across adorable thematic worlds! No punishment system, life is hard enough!
