April Build (2021)

Cactus goes well on pizza.

This build has a page on The Cutting Room Floor.

The April 2021 Build is a build that gave Pizza Tower an overhaul and added the latter half of the game's levels to it, as well as introducing several new mechanics, some of which would become mainstays. It also changed the HUD into a tv-based one complemented by a shortly lived TV commentary, however only for Entrance and Pizzascape.

It was made as a response to critiques of the Jay Leno build, changing the moveset to be a compromise between that and the moveset beforehand.

Gameplay

Differences in Movesets

• Peppino
  • Peppino can now shoot with his Revolver. It has limited ammo, but it recharges after a brief few seconds.

• The Noise
  • The Noise's moveset has been almost completely overhauled to match Peppino's, but instead of using a revolver, he throws Noise Bombs affected by gravity. Replacing the Uppercut, Noise can throw Noise Bombs up and jump on them, and they can also be used to kill enemies.

• The Vigilante
  • The Vigilante gets softlocked when bumping into a wall in the Rocket Transformation. Due to it being impossible to taunt, it forces the player to restart the level.

Trivia

• Due to not all levels being tiled, the purple blocks, red slopes, and semisolid platform monsters are shown constantly.
• This is the first build to use the new Toppin designs.
• Most levels present in this build would later go on to be included in the full release of Pizza Tower, except for the following:
  • Space Pinball
  • Kung-Fu
  • Mansion
  • Of these, Mansion is the only one that wasn't included as a level, instead being relegated to a secret area in Staff Only. Space Pinball and Kung-Fu were both merged into a single level, later becoming Fastfood Saloon.
• You can switch characters by taunting and pressing up, like in previous builds. This is the only way to play as The Vigilante in this build.
