Unfinished? Not on my watch!
This article is a work in progress. You can help the wiki by finishing it. Notes: Tons of stuff is missing from this list altogether.

  • HAT (Hard Ancient Tower) is missing amongst later stages that would be considered unused.
  • Various levels in different stages of development need to be split up.

This category lists scrapped levels. They may range from concepts, to fully or partially developed assets in prerelease builds.

Scrapped Level Orders

I've lost my orders again. This day is going to suck!

This article is a stub. You can help by expanding it.

Demo 1/Demo 2

During this phase of development, the levels were much longer with a more predictable structure of two floors and a boss. Every level was to be vertically structured, similarly to Bloodsauce Dungeon. This level order was documented in a conversation McPig had in the Pizza Tower Discord on November 2nd, 2018, detailing all of the gimmicks and transformations for each one. Not all of the text has been found. Descriptions are his exact words and are highlighted in quotation marks. This level order was used from the first Tester Build up to Demo 2.

Level 1 - Ancient Tower

As Demo 1 had already been out for a few days, McPig felt no need to describe the first level. See Ancient or Halloween Demo for more information. The Knight transformation and the music were later reused in Pizzascape, while the Bomb transformation was turned into a pickup and reused in Ancient Cheese.


Level 2 - Factory

"The Factory is a more mechanic focus level because of its treadmills. It looks like a metallic factory that produce cheap frozen pizza." See Demo 2 for more information. The gimmicks and enemies, along with the Boxxed transformation were reused in Peppibot Factory, and the Sticky Cheese transformation was reused in Oh Shit!.

  • Gimmicks: Conveyor Belt, Box Stamper
  • Enemies: Grabbie Hand, Peppino Robot
  • Transformations: Boxxed, Sticky Cheese
  • Themes: Pizza Engineer, Peppino's Sauce Machine, Running with Pockets Full of Meatballs
  • Note: There would be Cheesers that would squirt cheese and turn you into the Sticky Cheese transformation, which at this point wasn't part of the Cheeseball transformation.


Level 3 - Trash Heap

"Similar to Wario Land 4 Toxic Landfill. Absolutly disgusting mess of pizza box and rotten food. Its more of an action with a lot of obstacles to deal because of the cheeseballs and falling platforms." The Trash Pan enemy along with the Cheeseball transformation were reused in Oh Shit!, and the rotten pizza box platforms were turned into the Cheese Blocks and reused in Ancient Cheese.

  • Gimmicks: Rotten pizza box platforms (early version of Cheese Block), diagonal walls
  • Enemies: Trash Pan, Rotten Ingredients, Muscle Pizza
  • Transformations: Cheeseball, Meteor
  • Themes: Tubular Trash Zone, Toxic Rave
  • Note: The Muscle Pizza enemy would use its muscles to smack you into the Meteor transformation, and the Trash Pan would spit out Cheeseballs like in versions up to the April 2021 Patreon build. The Meteor transformation actually had finished sprites. The Meteor transformation would let you bounce off sloped surfaces and break metal blocks without using Mach 3/4.

Level 4 - Spooky Apartment

"A creepy apartment (similar to the tutorial level). This is more of a sneaking level since you need to make the most use out of the new transformation, and you actually need to hide from some enemies." obj_monster could be found in the files of the Early Test Build, the Ranch Shooter enemy was reused in Fast Food Saloon, the Barrel transformation was reused in Crust Cove, the Ghost transformation was reused in Wasteyard, and the Noisey was reused in The Noise's boss.

  • Gimmicks: Maze-like level design
  • Enemies: Horrible Pizza Monster (most likely obj_monster), fat guy that farts eating pizza (early version of Ranch Shooter), fake pizza boxes (early version of Noisey)
  • Transformations: Barrel, Ghost
  • Themes: Spooky Apartment, Spooky Apartment Escape (SNICK IS COMING)
  • Note: The fat guy farting while eating pizza would turn you into the Ghost transformation, and you would use the barrel to hide from the Horrible Pizza Monster.


Level 5 - Party

"A chuck-ee-cheese type of place with various party elements. There is a specific gimmick where you must wake up sleeping pizza monster with the music of the animatronic. A machine that you can fall into turns you into an animatronics. Spike does their usual job." The Animatronic (Peshino) transformation was later reused in Don't Make A Sound.

  • Gimmicks: Sleeping monster in need of waking up
  • Enemies: Pineacool, Evil Animatronic (reskin of Peppino Robot), Cool Kid
  • Transformations: Animatronic, Caffeinated
  • Themes: What's on the Kids Menu?, Hard Drive to Munch You, It's Pizza Time!
  • Note: As said by McPig, a machine you could fall into would turn you into Peshino.
  • Note: According to McPig, the Caffeinated transformation would make you "go really fast without being able to charge until you are hit and drop your coffee. Used to get through falling platforms that requires high speed instantly." This means coffee would be somewhere in this level.

Level 6 - Freefalling

"A constantly falling array of things that falls at the same time has Peppino, while the noise activated a trap that created a giant fan to throw everything out of the tower. The level is basically random objects stuck togheter to create the level, all while falling. By the end of the level, when opening the door, Peppino get to enter a hot-air balloon that was parked there to get back on top."

  • Gimmicks: Everything falling up rather than down
  • Transformations: Spinny, Superhero
  • Themes: Freefallin', Collapse!
  • Note: A beta version of Collapse has been found. According to the filename, the theme was originally titled "Gently Fall Apart". The Spinny transformation would have "[made] you spin, go real high then float back down spinning" and "Stun you for a second when landing." while the Superhero transformation would make you "fly anywhere and destroy metal blocks when running into them at high speed. Spikes." according to McPig.
    Listen here!


Level 7 - The Oven

PTG's text for this has not been found yet, but this seemingly involves a giant oven with burners giving you the Firebutt transformation. The Firebutt transformation was reused in Bloodsauce Dungeon.

  • Transformations: Firebutt, Hungry


Level 8 - The Pizza Dream

PTG's text for this has not been found yet, but this seemingly involves a vertical dream.

  • Transformations: Shy, Muscle
  • Note: McPig has stated that the Shy transformation would have made you "unable to charge, slow. Spikes." and the Muscle transformation would have made you "able to destroy everything."


Level 9 - Living Tower of Pizza

PTG's text for this has not been found yet, but this seemingly involves the tower you are in being alive as a final level of sorts. This was to feature every transformation in the game.

  • Transformations: Bomb, Knight, Boxxed, Sticky Cheese, Cheeseball, Meteor, Barrel, Ghost, Animatronic, Caffeinated, Spinny, Superhero, Firebutt, Hungry, Shy, Muscle


Early 2019 (GOLF)

This point in time was when the level design structure was revised to be shorter and less formulaic. This would later be the standard the final levels would be designed with. Each stage would have been based on a different type of pizza. This level order was documented in a conversation McPig had in the Pizza Tower Discord on February 3rd, 2019. This level order was used from the Grinch Race Patreon build up to the Desert build from 2019.

World 1

Pizza Desert (pepperoni pizza)

A desert that acts as the first level. There are many simple enemies. The main gimmick is the Firemouth transformation as seen in the Desert build. During the escape sequence, Noise-themed dynamite makes rocks fall. In the last rooms of the level, you enter a UFO to find the Noise Bomb.

  • Transformations: Firemouth, Squished
  • Themes: Oregano Mirage, Oregano UFO
  • Note: Almost the entire level's idea was reused in Oregano Desert.


Pizza Castle (Neapolitan pizza)

In the second level, you enter a castle (later a mansion starting in the Desert build) with more gameplay. The main gimmick is the Knight transformation, which is multi-purpose. In the middle of the level, Pepperman chases you to a key. During the plain section at the start of the level, The Noise drops a matchstick, leading into a haystack chase to going into the Firebutt transformation.

  • Transformations: Knight, Firebutt (triggered by Peasanto and The Noise)
  • Themes: Cold Spaghetti (as seen in April 2019 Patreon build)
  • Note: Some minor parts of the level were reused in Pizzascape and Fun Farm.


Pizza Factory (brand-name pizza)

This factory reuses assets from the Factory in Demo 2. Many gimmicks from it are reused from Demo 2's Factory, including the Peppino Robots.

  • Transformations: Boxxed, Knight (reused from Castle)
  • Themes: Peppino's Sauce Machine (as seen in April 2019 Patreon build)
  • Note: As with Demo 2's Factory, many parts of the level were reused in Peppibot Factory.


Pizza Sewer (rotten pizza)

A dirty sewer. Many things related to cheese can be found here, and there's even poop lying around. The main gimmicks are the Cheeseball transformation and the cheese blocks.

  • Transformations: Cheeseball (triggered by Trash Pan), Knight (reused from Castle)
  • Themes: Tubular Trash Zone
  • Note: The entire idea of the level was reused in Oh Shit!.

World 2

  • Pizza City (New York pizza)
  • Pizza Space (pizza marinara)
  • Pizza Beach (Hawaiian pizza)
  • Pizza Hell (spicy chicken pizza)

World 3

Pizza Freezer (assumedly frozen pizza)

A freezer that only The Noise can enter. The main gimmick is that since Noise cannot enter Mach 3 or 4, he has to ride washing machines to break them.

  • Transformations: Washing Machine
  • Themes: don't preheat your oven because if you do the song won't play
  • Note: Some of the level's idea was reused in Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator.
