Pudding Monsters

Pudding Monsters is a physics-based puzzle game developed by ZeptoLab; released for Android and iPhone in 2012, then later ported to the Nintendo Switch in 2022.
== Synopsis ==
The Cold-Hearted Fridge owner is getting ready for a picnic, and he's packing his quality gelatinous cherry pudding for the trip. In retaliation, the Pudding Monsters set out on a mission to save their friends from consumption and to take over the world by combining themselves into an ULTIMATE MEGA MONSTER!
A select amount of the titular Puddings are scattered over the grid-based world at the start of each stage, and three stars are positioned in specific locations. Ideally, you want to hide as many of those stars as you can while swiping the monsters across the stage until they form a collaborative monster. The monsters are propelled by swipes until they collide with an object on the stage; the initial strategy is for players to figure out how to move the Puddings around the screen without losing one in the process.
A popular genre of horror-based B-movies in the 80's was aliens invading earth and growing to take over the world. Pudding Monsters is a great example of this, as the Puddings are gaining power for every combination. This is hinted a lot throughout the game, via the style of music and visual elements. It's proposed that the air cargo/parachute crate on the "coming soon!" page is likely an invasion tactic of the Pudding Monsters.
