Realized that since John isn't in this level, he can't spawn extra enemies, so you'd have to rely on collecting clocks to maintain the combo. Tough stuff
That makes me wonder. The primary purpose Peppino comes to any level is to knock down its Pillar John and thus bring the Pizza Tower closer to falling apart. But the War level doesn't have Pillar John. Why did Peppino go there? (actually, now that I think about it, the War level is probably brought down by the bomb instead)
You don’t realize this because of the fast paced nature of the level but for some bizarre reason Gustavo and brick are in the level where periodically Gustavo fires brick out of an rpg to help clear the way for peppino. It’s nice to see that Gustavo isn’t a fair weathered friend and will be there for peppino every step of the way, even through peppino’s PTSD.
This level was a MASSIVE difficulty spike for me, largely because it alters Peppino’s moveset in a way that tampers with my muscle memory. Combine that with the strict time limit especially if you’re going for secret rooms, and it’s balls-to-the-wall difficult.
I found it easy to get the skip the secret rooms durring the first lap then to get them on my 2nd lap although I quite literally made it to the goal within a few milliseconds
There’s something eerie about how none of the enemies in this level respawn on lap 2. So you can spend The first lap running wild with the shotgun, but then when you discard the gun start the second lap, the whole level is empty. Obviously some enemies can remain and some spawn endlessly for puzzles, but still.
This game definitely gives me adrenaline at many points, but just HEARING the time bomb ticking, the constant shotgun noises, and the intense music is making me shake. This level may be stupid hard, but its theming is unparalleled.

If you jump after this, you will Shine Spark where you can launch Samus at high speeds in a variety of directions. Peppino's Dash and Super Jump were inspired by Samus's Speed Boost and Shinespark.
This level isn't just a difficulty spike, it's an anxiety inducer Not just for us cause of the timer, but for Peppino, because he's a war vet with PTSD, so this is essentially the Tower making this shit personal
This is a perfect penultimate level in my opinion. It’s main gimmick encourages tight, skillful execution of its core mechanics instead of deviating off to something more experimental.
Fun fact: According to McPig, Peppino’s actually a war veteran, who’s apparently traumatized to the point he can’t play TF2 cause it’s too familiar to said trauma. This level was hell for him just as much as playing through it the first time is for us. EDIT: To all the knuckleheads in replies saying “uhh no deconfirmed lol” this comment was made when that was canon and the new canon (he imagined it) I deem lame as fuck.
"Familiar" Fitting considering TF2 is also a cartoonish chaotic hell, just like the world of Pizza Tower I am curious on if Peppino's war is just as chaotic as TF2 or even more since it would be that game plus the style of Pizza Tower
If there's one thing I particularly like about this level, it's how the Lap 2 music doesn't play. And for the better, too - The Death That I Deservioli doesn't fit this nearly as much as Thousand March does.
I had a thought that the reason that TDTID doesn’t play is because usually, it and Pizza Time play to convey stress, ass opposed to whatever the level was playing before. But in this case, Thousand March is actually even MORE stressful than those, so it keeps playing to keep up the stress.
The music spamming... The enemies crawling... The gun blaring... Peppino sprinting... And throughout it all... The tick.. Tick... *Tick...* *_of your demise._*
I already said this in a reply, but I think War is the place where John and Peppino are being cloned. The War-like setting is meant to deter Peppino. It also explains why John is absent in this level.
The theming of this level is on point. Everything about it, from the timer ticking away, the mines and the army pizzas, the pizza tanks, the genetically cloned fake peppinos, and the intense music as the timer ticks away. Not only that, but the enemies are still pizza. Like every other level in the game, no matter what theming, the game still slaps fucking pizza on it. It’s…absolutely brilliant.
What I like are the small things in this level. You don’t lose points constantly like during the Pizza Time segments of the level since the whole level is already a timed one. Also, once you lose the shotgun when going through Lap 2, notice how Peppino has that smug “heh-heh! Somebody’s about to face my wrath” hud on the TV; the one you would see if you increase your combo. Usually for the Pizza Time segments, he would have that: “HOLY CRAP I NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE FAST!” hud, but not in this case.
As hard as this level is, just the fact that up to this point, the game has been relatively goofy and just a dude trying to get stuff done. However, going into this level is what tests him, making him relive his traumatic memories of battle. Couple that with the amazing darksynth styled music, the shotgun that sounds like a train collision every time you fire it, and the bomb that ticks constantly, but the beeps of it always fit with the music. This level is what reminds you that this isn’t a game for Peppino, it’s officially a war. And I wouldn’t be surprised it this is what contributes to his complete anger filled meltdown during the final boss fight.
I like how you practically need to have Peppino’s moveset down to a science to do this level properly Also the absence of John the Pillar means this level is constantly on the verge of collapsing
I find it funny how fake peppino is litterally the only boss to appear as an obstacle in a normal level unlike noise, vigilante or pepperman (the pizza guy doesn't count)
I think Fake Peppino boss was some kind of experimental clone using some crazy pizza ingridients... But it never ran production and he himself made his home at Bruno's now abandoned pizzeria, as if it was his own
@@mati28287 tho their difference is Fake peppino being able to copy most of peppino’s moves modified in a kind of way, while the clones being able to only lick
The Lap 2 for this level is such an amazing mood. You're the last man left on the battlefield, except for rampant unmanned war machines and zombies, and you have to run for your life to safety before the nukes go off.
I think I really like about P Ranking this stage is that the timer you get at the end is actually pretty reasonable and gives some room for error, but its still very panic inducing and still does its job very well. This is probably my favorite stage to P Rank just for how fun it is to speed against that last timer while grabbing the clocks to keep your combo timer going
this level is pretty easy to p rank in my opinion because if you clear out the level on your first run youre left with some easy skips and less enemies to deal with
Ok but can we talk about how much we all need a homie like Gustavo in our lives? bros protecting his homie with a bazooka even though he doesn't know how to use it and risking his safety and even letting him use him as a projectile AND hyping him up in the finale Mans a Giga-No an ULTRA-chad
I just noticed when the terminal blocks are destroyed all the keys in the keyboard fly out at onc The little details in this game like that are amazing
Honestly the most fun P rank imo, just because I was never searching for hidden secrets or trying to find where smthnig was hidden. Just solid mechanical execution, memorization, and raw Peppino s p e e d.
Hey CrayFray, thanks for making this video. i was scrolling on youtube last year, and i found this video. it looked cool and silly, inspiring me to search for other pizza tower videos. i got invested into pizza tower, and was hyped to see it coming on switch. i’m now able to enjoy this wonderful game thanks to you introducing me to it. thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤
WAR Treasure: A box of food It's kinda look like an opposite reference to most imported foods for the military during the wars which is always serves in cans. Why I'm saying it was an opposite, because a food that kept inside a box like a cereal was not a great idea. Edited: The first one who commented me explained what the treasure is so like his comment
the problem with using the ultra-powerful shotgun of death is that you pretty much lose ALL of your speed. and in a level where the clock is ticking, that just adds to the tension.
Considering the timer and the theme of the level, I'm gonna assume Peppino was part of a bomb squad during the war. Something must've went wrong, however, and now he has a severe phobia of timers.
One of the easiest levels to get a P-rank but fun as hell. And what a great lap 2! So relaxing, no enemies untill the end, the way is kinda free. Nice.
I decided to replay the level just to get the treasure and somehow missed the Janitor door twice in a row and was watching this video thinking- Why was that of all things still kept hidden and then it appears in the video out in the open and I relised how unobservant I am
theres a lot of things to love about this level, but a primary thing to love is there's very few rng elements or even things you have to remember to p rank it, everything is visible at one point, all it takes is for you to get to them
To me, the hardest part of this level wasn't P-Ranking it, it was beating it. Having to go from "Speed is optional" to "Speed is a must" threw me for a loop until I got enough muscle memory to beat it, then I wound up P-Ranking it trying to get the "3 Damage or Less" achivement
I have a theory that War is actually a normal level like John Gutter, but here's the catch. I believe before getting into the food business, Peppino was once a war soldier from World War 2 and when he heard the word 'war' he started getting flashbacks to the traumatic experience from being in the warzone, and for the full level we're seeing it from Peppino's perspective.
what differs this level from CTOP is that the crumbling tower is a victory lap, you know youre gonna get out of this and if you do the level right, youll still have plenty of time before going inside the exit door in WAR however, it has a timer thats just seconds, so you need to be running at all times. no time to think, just run and hope theres a terminal nearby and the fact Peppino is a war veteran with PTSD just shows how this level isn't a normal one
I like how the peppino cloning factory may or may not give you insight into fake peppinos origin. What I don't like is that all the people of the Internet are going to gang up on me and call me a bot as soon as they see this comment
now that I think of it how did the noise know about this level or any level when making the movie My guess is the movie was a documentary and he just recorded himself going through the pizza tower but I have no clue
I got the P rank at the last second, but this level was way easier to me than most other P ranks, probably because it's not that long and the secrets are in plain sight
This one was actually a lot of fun to just run. Didn't really go over the footage on this one to see how to run it speedily. Made P rank within about 20 minutes.
You know its serious when even pizza time clock stops in secret rooms and treasure rooms, while WAR clock always runs no matter what. P rank in WAR is a very good achievement and difficulty equivalent to completing a boss
Yo people have been so obsessed with the war vet Peppino theory that they are considering it ACTUAL CANON NOW! So much so that McPig had to clarify that he was not a war vet and this is just a goofy war themed level with a gimmick.
Realized that since John isn't in this level, he can't spawn extra enemies, so you'd have to rely on collecting clocks to maintain the combo. Tough stuff
That makes me wonder. The primary purpose Peppino comes to any level is to knock down its Pillar John and thus bring the Pizza Tower closer to falling apart.
But the War level doesn't have Pillar John.
Why did Peppino go there?
(actually, now that I think about it, the War level is probably brought down by the bomb instead)
because who doesn't like reliving PTSD memories?
@@Levyafan he probably thought there would be a pillar there, but instead there was war-like trap waiting for him
@@Levyafan It’s the very place John and Peppino are being cloned, the war setting is meant to deter Peppino.
Funnily enough there’s a John in a test tube near the end part of the level.

It’s nice to see that Gustavo isn’t a fair weathered friend and will be there for peppino every step of the way, even through peppino’s PTSD.

I have a theory that War is actually a normal level like John Gutter, but here's the catch. I believe before getting into the food business, Peppino was once a war soldier from World War 2 and when he heard the word 'war' he started getting flashbacks to the traumatic experience from being in the warzone, and for the full level we're seeing it from Peppino's perspective.
War has such a simple concept to make it all the more frantic;
What if it was constant Pizza Time?
what differs this level from CTOP is that the crumbling tower is a victory lap, you know youre gonna get out of this
and if you do the level right, youll still have plenty of time before going inside the exit door
in WAR however, it has a timer thats just seconds, so you need to be running at all times. no time to think, just run and hope theres a terminal nearby
and the fact Peppino is a war veteran with PTSD just shows how this level isn't a normal one
Does anyone else read the level title in the same inflection as Mr. Krabs saying 'MOAR' 'cause I do. WOAR!
Pizzaface: We’ll give him a gun, just to be fair
The enemies: *WHAT HAVE YOU DONE*
6:53 How the music lines up here is just *chefs kiss*
"It's time to chew ass!"
- Peppino, Pizza Tower
30 minutes or else the artillery is free
I like how the peppino cloning factory may or may not give you insight into fake peppinos origin. What I don't like is that all the people of the Internet are going to gang up on me and call me a bot as soon as they see this comment
I love how the climax of the song happens at the same time as you enter the last area of the level
I like when Gustavo just appering from no where and launch from rocket launcher Brick (the rat)
You have to realize how much of an asshole Pizzaface was to weaponize Peppino's PTSD against him in a zone as a last ditch effort to stifle him.
now that I think of it how did the noise know about this level or any level when making the movie
My guess is the movie was a documentary and he just recorded himself going through the pizza tower but I have no clue
Every other level gets old for me eventually but this one never changes
Yeah, war... war never changes
NO PEPPINO, DONT ACTIVATE YOUR PTSD AGAIN
I got the P rank at the last second, but this level was way easier to me than most other P ranks, probably because it's not that long and the secrets are in plain sight
I love that the secret treasure of this level is a box of calorie mate.
This one was actually a lot of fun to just run. Didn't really go over the footage on this one to see how to run it speedily. Made P rank within about 20 minutes.
This Channel carried my S and P ranks, thanks man.
The clock ticks down. Will you escape, or go down in flames?
War... War never changes
War is hell
If Peppino IS a war veteran, my headcanon is that he had the highest kill count in the entire Italian army, being the juggernaut he is.
You know its serious when even pizza time clock stops in secret rooms and treasure rooms, while WAR clock always runs no matter what.
P rank in WAR is a very good achievement and difficulty equivalent to completing a boss
6:56 MAN that sync was just golden
Fun fact: the secret song was renamed from “A War Secret” to “My Secret War Crimes”
0:42 WHY DID YOU DO THAT? YOU CAN BREAK METAL BLOCKS WITH THE ROCKET
No you can't
@@yaninakittoff yes. go ahead and test it and even tho he could have just jumped
real fotage of niko playing pizza tower
Man, i cant wait to get my hands on this game. The sounds and the gameplay seems like crack.
the secrets aren't secrets
Pizzaface really hittin pepino where it hurts
This isn't a funny assignment in a quirky class with a fun teacher, this is the final exam on How To Pizza Tower.
I really like how the secret areas are no longer secret and instead depending on how much time you have
2:35 my combo streak keeps ending here because of the lack of enemies and timers to keep it alive until 2:40
press the direction and the run button at the same time while in the rocket to go faster
also, let Gustavo kill one of the soldiers
I like the fact that peppino it's suffering and being traumatized by the timer and the level, and the combo just says 1:17
Yo people have been so obsessed with the war vet Peppino theory that they are considering it ACTUAL CANON NOW! So much so that McPig had to clarify that he was not a war vet and this is just a goofy war themed level with a gimmick.
