Writing GeopackageGeoPackage with FME - no geometry

I have a large amount (400 shapefiles, 11 gigs total) of shapefiles which I would like to store into one file (or DB). I am also using PostGIS, but just out of pure interest I would like try test out how the files would work in a GeopackageGeoPackage.

I am trying to write the files with FME into a GeopackageGeoPackage and the features do get transferred and the file gets created, but when I try to open the resulting geopackageGeoPackage file on QGIS, it doesn't recognize any geometry in the file.

I was trying to go through the FME help and tried to force the file to create a spatial column, but it still doesn't seem to work as it should. The files contain only polygons and no Z-values. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
