Buildings

There are multiple types of buildings in shapez. There is only one Hub, and it cannot be moved, built, or destroyed. The Belt and Extractor are immediately available when you start the game. The other buildings and building types can be unlocked by completing different levels. These buildings can also be improved by purchasing upgrades with different shapes.
