The gameplay is a 2D side-scrolling platformer, taking inspiration from Wario Land 4, Sonic the Hedgehog, and cartoons such as SpongeBob SquarePants. The players control Peppino, a struggling pizzeria owner.
The design is heavily based on the works of Windows Paint.
The goal is to navigate through a variety of levels, collect ingredients, defeat bosses, and escape the tower. Much like the Wario Land games, the player must reach the end of the level, encountering John the Pillar, and destroy him to unlock the exit at the start. Then, they will have to reach it before the time runs out.
Release[]
The game was first announced at the August 2024 Indie World presentation as its last announcement. Shortly afterwards, it was released on the same date.
The game was originally released on Windows in 2023 before being ported to the Nintendo Switch.
Trivia[]
- The Nintendo Switch is the first time Pizza Tower was released on a console.
