WAR

WAR is the nineteenth level in Pizza Tower, and the third level of Staff Only. The level has a unique time limit mechanic, with no Pillar John and consequently, no Pizza Time. Instead, WAR has a timer that activates by picking up the Shotgun that appears at the entrance of the level and remains active constantly.

The timer can only be extended by destroying War Terminals found throughout the level. If the timer fully counts down to 0, the player will be caught in the middle of a dark void with numerous explosions going off in the background before large, blue text saying "TIME'S UP" falls from above and crushes them, forcing them outside the level gate.

WAR features three setting themes: a short entrance section set in a bunker, an outdoor section set in an active military battlefield, and an indoor section set in an industrial laboratory overrun by Peppino Clones.

The level's titlecard is set in a chaotic battlefield, with a closeup of a helmeted and dirty Peppino's face as he screams in horror. In the background, a grinning Peppino Clone also wearing a combat helmet runs away from an explosion and towards Peppino, giving a thousand-yard stare. Additionally, all of the level's backgrounds, including inside Secret Eyes, intermittently pulse with a red shader.

When playing as Peppino: Gustavo occasionally appears on the level, shooting an enemy nearby with a rocket launcher with Brick, who acts as a makeshift missile.

When playing as The Noise: Bucket replaces Gustavo, splashing an enemy with water once, defeating them as a result. The Bucket reappears when re-entering the room.
