Pizza Tower: Part 26: The Crumbling Tower of Pizza (Final Escape & Good Ending)
13Peppino Spaghetti has done it.
He has defeated Pizzaface, who turned out to be Pizzahead. Thus saving his tiny pizza place from getting blown up by a laser.
It was now time to make his way down the Pizza Tower itself...
Turns out that The Crumbling Tower of Pizza was the missing 4th "regular" level of the Staff Only floor. All floors usually have 4 levels before a boss fight, and Staff Only mixed it up.
----------
This comes in the form of one final Pizza Time through taking out one last John Pillar. Except this one is actually the first one. All of the others were cloned from him...
...and he's dead...
Knock him off to start the final Pizza Time, the one that causes the entire Pizza Tower itself to collapse in a time limit.
You noticed all of those John Blocks in hub floors? That is because part of escaping this tower involves going through those same floors, leaving behind the doorway through all of the levels you've ventured through. As such, you'll see yourself going downward between different unique rooms alongside Staff Only, Slum, Vacation Resort, Western District, and Tower Lobby.
Along the way, several certain characters Peppino has met and possibly fought will also follow him out, such as Gustavo & Brick, Mr. Stick, Fake Peppino, The Noise, The Vigilante, Pepperman, Gerome, and even Mort the Chicken!
ALSO along the way, so many different mechanics and enemies make a comeback in a way that feels like they're there to pump you up through a victory lap and make you reminisce of all of the wild, wacky, and weird adventures that you've been through within this game! Even the music feels this way!
Near the very beginning of this game, as the enemy forces dwindle, all that's left for to try to stop Peppino is a long harmless line of Pizzaboy cutouts. Enter that first door, and YOU WIN!!!
----------
Everyone was able to make it out of the collapsing Pizza Tower in one piece.
Well... almost everyone, and I'm not just talking about Pizzahead.
Poor John. He was dead at this point, and all Gerome could do was mourn the loss of his brother...
HOWEVER! If you gathered all of the Secret Treasure from Gerome's rooms, they will use their power to bring John back to life and make him a normal Pillar Man again!
The first thing he does? Get rid of Pizzahead for good! Gerome couldn't be any happier!
----------
During the credits, as all of the enemies are running away to find new homes after the Pizza Tower's fall. We also see some art of what the main characters have been doing afterwards, as well. Such as The Noise make starting his own record album company, or Peppino further realizing that he has a clone following him now.
It really just seems like most bosses of this game have turned into more friends for Peppino. They show up at different things Peppino has, such as summer cook-outs and Halloween parties, though they'll still sometimes butt heads.
The main credits, focusing on the co-directors, composers, playtesters, and other people who worked on the game, is pretty short. The majority of the full credits actually consists of all of the people that had supported this game through Patreon over the years, including all those that were able to have OCs in this game's Secret stages that are lovingly called Pizzasonas.
Ultimately, their favorite place to hang out as is none other than Peppino's Place, itself, the very thing he worked so hard to save from Pizzahead... who may still be plotting something new for him...
----------
Past the credits, Peppino himself, will grade you based on how high your completion rate is. Suffice to say, I can aim for higher.
Thanks for watching this playthrough of one of the weirdest and FUNNIEST games I've featured on this channel. However, I'm not done with this game yet.
I'm gonna go through every level all over again on a grand mission to get P-Rank with ALL OF THEM!
In regular levels, to get a P-Rank, you need to start a combo in the first room of a level and NEVER DROP IT ALL THE WAY TO THE END!
Alongside that, you must find all 3 Secrets, collect Gerome's treasure, and you have to go through a second Lap towards the starting door of the level during Pizza Time! ALL OF THIS MUST ALSO BE DONE WITHOUT DROPPING THE COMBO YOU STARTED IN THE FIRST ROOM!
Stay tuned for when I get all of those Purple Ps!
