Pudding Monsters

Before You Play Pudding Monsters

Pudding Monsters is a top-down 2D puzzle game that uses sliding and tap mechanics that can work with the mouse. Use the cursor to navigate the UI and game screens and the Left Mouse Button to interact. Click it to tap on what you want to interact with and hold and drag to slide the puddings around. Pudding can only move in a straight line in one of the four primary directions. The goal of each level is to connect all of the pudding together, aiming to have them rest on star tiles for the best score. Puddings spawn in set locations on each level. They can't move on their own which is why you need to slide them into each other. When a pudding hits another pudding, they combine but maintain their shape. Combined puddings can then be moved around as a whole. Puddings don't stop sliding until they hit a solid object or another pudding. The levels don't have borders which means that the puddings can slide off and if they do, you need to reset the level. In addition to the random objects that can be placed to act as barriers, puddings themselves will also have different behaviors. Some will be obstacles such as sleeping puddings that can't be moved unless another pudding collides with them. Others will be beneficial like a pudding that creates a trail of sticky slime when it slides. As you progress, more pudding types will be introduced.
