Pizza Tower

Unused level orders

Demo 1/Demo 2

During this phase of development, the levels were much longer, with a more predictable structure of two floors and a boss, therefore less levels would have been viable. This level order was documented in a conversation PTG had in the Pizza Tower Discord on November 2nd, 2018, detailing all of the gimmicks and transformations for each one. Descriptions are his exact words.

Level 1 – Ancient Tower

As Demo 1 had already been out for a few days, PTG felt no need to describe the first level. See Halloween Demo for more information.

Level 2 – Factory

« The Factory is a more mechanic focus level because of its treadmills. It looks like a metallic factory that produce cheap frozen pizza. »

By the end of the level, when opening the door, Peppino get to enter a hot-air balloon that was parked there to get back on top. »
