Peppino is from an indie game in the making called Pizza Tower. Pizza Tower is an action platformer inspired by the Wario Land series (specifically 4). Pizza Tower Guy is the creator of the game (yes that's what he goes by). You can get very creative with the movement options. There's the dash grab, ground pound, roll, uppercut, style moves, taunt, etc. It's a fast paced game, so thinking fast will get you closer to victory. To beat a level/tower, you must go to the end of it and take down John the Pillar. Once he's dealt with, the tower starts to collapse and you need to run back to the start before time runs out. The Noise is Peppino's arch rival. He hates pizza. He is of course inspired by Domino's old mascot The Noid. If you'd like to try out Pizza Tower, you can look up the demos on Pizza Tower Guy's itch.io page
You see this little guy on the character select screen? That's Peppino. It seems like most of you don't know who he is or where he's from. I'll fill you in on the details in the article
Next up
There's a bulletin board in the middle of the overworld where you can save your game and read dialogue from each character! Who's who?
I fiiiinally added the KO stars. I wanted to do it like how Superstar Saga does it, but I settled for how the 3ds titles do it
The Shadow Update coming soon!
This game includes a mechanic where you can collect wanted posters that appear in the overworld and fight harder versions of bosses for double the coins you would usually get from them! (Version of game shown in video not released yet)
If you didn't know already, every character is getting a unique enemy select background in the coming update! (WIP sprite is temporary)
Finally fixed a pretty bad bug where if you hit a block too quickly, it would keep rotating. The fix is only applied to the solo block in this clip to demonstrate how broken the bug made things lol
Is there any random footage you'd like to see before the update's release? Like a battle, bounty mission, or minigame? Let me know so I can show some content for you without any long stretches of silence on my part
As the release for the next update draws near, I've been finishing up the character intro cutscenes. Here's Bowser's
The first 2 special attacks will be available to use in the upcoming update, being Bowser's Goomba barrage and Wario's piledriver. Of course there will be specials made for everyone else, and then multiple for each. It's just a lot of work for me
I'm very excited to implement Pixel9Bit's resprite of his Donkey Kong spritesheet in the future! It was also good to wait to make Diddy Kong playable because he resprited him too!
