'''Noisey''' is an [[List of enemies|enemy]] in [[Pizza Tower]].

== Description ==
Noisey resembles The Noise, but the torso and arms are absent, and the nose is pointy and longer than [[The Noise]]'s nose.

== Behaviour ==
Noisey pops out of Noise's Balloon during Phase 2 of his boss fight. Noisey walks around, and hurts the player if touched from the front, acting identically to the Forknight. When walking into a wall, the Noisey will turn around. The Player can grab Noiseys and throw them at The Noise, stunning him and making him vulnerable for an attack.

== Trivia ==
* Noisey originally would appear in [[Deep-Dish 9]], where besides its current behavior, upon getting hit, it would start jumping around like a spring. Noisey could not be defeated in one hit.
* Noisey has an animation for a [[Heat Meter]] attack, but it is unknown what this attack would be.
* The older version of Noisey can be seen in a [https://pizzatower.fandom.com/wiki/The_Noise/Pre-release#Scrapped_Noise_Crusher_Fight scrapped Noise Crusher boss] in earlier Patreon Builds of the game.
* Noisey is the only object from a bossfight that can be scared.
* Noisey is the only enemy to appear in just one bossfight and nowhere else.

'''Snowman''' is an [[List of enemies|enemy]] in [[Pizza Tower]].

== Description ==
Snowman is shaped like an ice cube, with the typical coal eyes and mouth plus a carrot nose. It also wears a red scarf, orange mitts and a chef's hat.

== Behaviour ==
Snowman quickly slides across the ground and hurts the player if touched from the front. Snowman does not get scared when running at Mach 2 or higher. Snowmen are also spawned from the presents dropped by [[Fake Santa]]. Snowman explodes into several special gibs when defeated. Unlike Forknight, Snowman does not turn when reaching a ledge.

== Appears in ==

* [[Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator]]
* [[The Crumbling Tower of Pizza]]

== Trivia ==
* Originally, the [[Pizzice]] had the behavior of the Snowman, however the Pizzice would end up being scrapped and replaced with the Snowman. In PT_Eggplantv15, the Pizzice was brought back, however with a completely different behavior, which is why some sprites for Snowman are referred to as Pizzice.
* Snowman's [[Heat Meter]] attack was sliding much faster.
* The Snowman is the second enemy to split into several gibs when defeated, with the first one being [[Gabaghoul]].

'''Ghostknight''' is an [[List of enemies|enemy]] in [[Pizza Tower]].

== Description ==
Ghostknight is a ghost version of Forknight, that doesn't wear armor, and instead of a fork holds a knife. In-game he is also translucent.

== Behaviour ==
Ghostknight floats around and hurts the player if touched from the front. Ghostknight can only be defeated with [[Exorcist|Exorcist's]] holy cross, [[Transformations#Shotgun|shotgun]] or by supertaunt, but can still be scared, temporarily making him harmless.

== Appears in ==

* [[Pizzascare]]
* [[The Crumbling Tower of Pizza]]

== Trivia ==

* In some builds that pre-date the final game, such as Eggplant Build, the Ghostknights could only be defeated using a supertaunt due to the lack of Exorcists in earlier versions of Pizzascare. This made the level way harder to beat as a result.
* In the Rework build, Ghostknights look identical to Forknights, except for being transparent.
* Ghostknights have a stunned animation, however, it's just their scared animation. It is used when a Ghostknight is defeated with a supertaunt, or when [[Escape Spawner|spawned]] during [[Pizza Time]].
