Hi there, fellow disciples of Wario, and welcome to your new favourite recreation. The nameless developer Tour De Pizza created their first-ever online game Pizza Tower after enjoying each Wario Land installment; it’s meant as a religious successor. The retro side-scrolling platformer follows chef Peppino Spaghetti as he climbs a tower, battling food-themed enemies alongside the best way to forestall the demolition of his pizzeria. The artwork mimics strung-out ’90s cartoons like Ren and Stimpy, the gameplay is over-caffeinated, and the music is simply hyper sufficient to be good.
Created by Mr. Sauceman and ClascyJitto, plus a menu theme courtesy of Submit Elvis, Pizza Tower’s soundtrack is the musical embodiment of how the sport’s display continuously rattles, even when Peppino Spaghetti stands nonetheless. Funk, home, chiptune, and electronica take turns soundtracking ranges, however there’s seemingly at all times a hidden reference level: that slap bass in “Pizza Deluxe” winks on the Seinfeld theme, the staccato melody of “There’s a Bone in My Spaghetti” echoes Undertale. Don’t simply hearken to the soundtrack, although. Learn it and snigger. The track titles alone—“The Dying That I Deservioli,” “Calzonification,” “Don’t Preheat Your Oven As a result of If You Do the Track Received’t Play”—befit a venture this gloriously foolish and chaotic.
