I'm glad that I'm isolated from most online communities so I don't have preconcieved notions of this being a dumb Reddit game or whatever. Some of the jokes rub me the wrong way (like the native stereotypes in world 2) but on the whole I love this game's humor and art style, it's a perfect blend of 90s Nick and 00s internet. If I had infinite free time I'd 100% this game but my reflexes aren't what they used to be.
Extremely well polished and fluid 2D platformer with a really charming art style, fantastic level design and a banger soundtrack. Would absolutely recommend going for at least a few P Ranks because even though as of writing this I've only gotten a couple, the adrenaline rush of the second lap is matched by no other 2D platformer.
Pizza Tower is prob- scratch that, by far the most relentlessly stylish, adrenaline-pumping game I've had the pleasure of experiencing in recent memory. A palpable, unmistakable energy is proudly displayed throughout every inch of this tower, elevated further by consistently fantastic level design and the intensely lovable Peppino's inherently fun, genuinely meaningful set of core mechanics - not to mention the cavalcade of increasingly awesome level gimmicks. A mostly bangin' series of boss fights, the legendarily-executed Pizza Time mechanic, and a magnetic desire to master every stage rounds out an unforgettable game I'll no doubt be comin' back to constantly.
I am aware that almost every game I've played for this account so far have been games that are personal favorites of mine, but I can't help it. I like playing games that I like!
...I mean what do you want me to say that hasn't already been said?? Pizza Tower is literally a perfect video game. One of the best soundtracks in gaming, possibly my favorite pixel art style in any video game ever, speedy platforming so fast it'll turn your bones into accordions, free dlc that adds a new playable character, it's surprisingly really really funny, oh yeah also ALL of it is themed around my favorite food of all time too??? Pizza Tower feels like it was meticulously manufactured to appeal to literally EVERY SINGLE one of my personal sensibilities. Like this was a piece of media made just for me and me only. I am OBSESSED with this fuckin game, dude. It's incredible to me how this game took that inspiration from Wario Land, and COMPLETELY SURPASSED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE GAMES. Pizza Tower makes it look so effortless. If the Wario Land series never comes back and Pizza Tower takes it's place, I think I'll be okay with that. One of my new favorite video games of all time, and I MEAN IT

My blood and bones comes from the country shaped like a boot, so this games speaks to my soul on a personal level.
First off, this game is not an accurate representation of Italy as a whole: there is not enough pasta in this game compared to Pizza, and also.... nah that's about it.
But Peppino is the best italian rep in gaming: a man that sruggles with debt and finances, and can easily see its career ended in a seconds thanks to clowns that stands above him, so he screams a lot and turns into an Courage the Cowardly Dog character to stand out....... totally relatable ngl.
Pizza Tower is amazing. The idea of a Wario Land spiritual successor with a, incredible artstyle is already a perfect concept, but they you add incredible level design, an atmosphere that combines cartoony hijinks with striaght up horror, and a speed and adrenaline inducing movement that cna compete with the best Sonic titles.
To this you add a sprinkle os spice, with the incredible bosses and especially the amazingly spicy ending, to create one of the best meals in the Indie-games menu.
Incredible surprise from 2023. Recommended to everyone that loves videogames!

De los mejores plataformas que existen. Depende como lo juegues, se controla como un Wario Land o un Sonic (pero bien hecho).
El estilo visual emula muy bien el arte de Paint, con animaciones excepcionalmente bien hechas y con muchisima personalidad.
La música es muy buena también. Aparte de su obvia función de encajar con los niveles a los que acompaña, es muy dinámica y varias capas de música se van sobreponiendo conforme juegas y realizas ciertas acciones lo que te hace sentir más poderoso al correr a toda velocidad con Peppino.
Tiene tantos giros y detalles que hacen especiales a todos los niveles y siempre hay algo que hace especial el nivel que estás intentando jugar.
Fue un playthrough muy casual, pero en el futuro seguramente volveré por esos P-Rank.
