List of miscellaneous characters

This is a list of the secondary characters that have been part of the Pizza Tower universe with a minor role in the story.

Snick's Gang

Snick's Gang is a group composed of Snick and his buddies which is a parody of Sonic's gang in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. During Snick's development, McPig made some sprites showing what the rest of Sonic the Hedgehog's cast would look like in Snick's style. He then made an image showing Snick having a birthday party with the characters he made, but said the image wasn't canonical to the Pizza Tower lore. It is composed of the following members: Snick, Tail, Boots, Shadow Snick, Dr. Bad Breakfast, Aluminium Snick, Snick.exe and finally, an unnamed pink porcupine with a bow.

Tail (referencing Tails, Sonic's best friend and sidekick).
Boots (referencing Knuckles, Sonic's old friend and rival).
Shadow Snick (referencing Shadow, Sonic's arch-rival). McPig said that his catchphrases are "im the coolest" (a line from Shadow in Sonic Adventure 2) and "im the greatest living thing my duderino" (referencing Shadow's title as "the ultimate life form").
Dr. Bad Breakfast (referencing Dr. Eggman, Sonic's greatest foe and main antagonist of the Sonic franchise).
Aluminum Snick (referencing Metal Sonic, another of Sonic's enemies)
An unnamed pink porcupine (referencing Amy Rose, Sonic's friend and biggest fan).

Dougie Jones

Dougie Jones is a Pizzard who makes his first and only appearance as Noise's assistant in the ??? Comics. He doesn't seem to have any design differences from any other Pizzards, but has been distinguished as his own character despite this. In the ??? Comics, he is depicted as The Noise's subservient, yet apathetic minion, working alongside Kentucky Kenny.

Pizzamancer

Pizzamancer is a character that has only appeared in concept art of the game and mentioned by McPig as part of the lore. He looks like Pizzaface, except his nose is a tomato instead of a mushroom. He has a regular mouth, and differing from Pizzaface, Pizzamancer has limbs; white hands and feet. He also wears a Pizzard's hat and a big cape.

There isn't much information known about Pizzamancer, except that he cursed Peppino's ancestor and his whole family for disrespecting pizza. The curse was that they wouldn't be able to make pizza in peace anymore. But even with that, the ancestor still defeated him. It is also mentioned that he was the original creator of the Pizza Tower, as well as the possible original owner of the Cheese Dragon.

He died after several years when the war ended, which led to Pizzaface taking over the Tower afterwards, becoming its new owner. It was speculated that Pizzaface came to life thanks to Pizzamancer's powers.

Pizzamancer at one point was planned to be reused for hard mode of the game, where he would have dropped up to 4 random enemies. He wasn't animated, but the mode can be still activated in the game with commands. However, no sprites were ever made, and uses Snick.exe's sprites as a placeholder.

Mr. Sock

Mr. Sock is a character seen in various concept art for spin-offs and sequels to Pizza Tower. Mr Sock looks like an upside down sock with googly eyes and two human legs sticking out from the sock’s hole. He is also usually depicted with a hat, either a chef’s hat or a top hat.

Santa Claus

Santa Claus is a character that appears in the Peppino's Xmas Break demo as a one-off character.

He first appears at the beginning of the demo, where he carries Peppino off the title screen in his sleigh and takes him to Strongcold. He later appears in the second to last room, where he's revealed to actually be The Noise, who then pulls out a Noise bomb and starts up a mini-boss. Santa's sleigh is later used by some of Peppino's pals for them to escape the tower before it explodes.

Mr. Orange

Mr. Orange was either The Noise's twin brother, or his rival. It was never really decided upon as he was just a concept. His appearance is almost identical to the Noise except his costume is orange with a yellow cape. Mr. Orange was once planned to be an alternate boss when playing as The Noise in single player and co-op, but was ultimately replaced with The Doise. He has an Australian accent, as he was separated at birth.

Peshino

Peshino, also known as Animatronic Peppino, is an entertainment robot made in Peppino's image. Compared to Peppino himself, it is more cylindrical, with big, googly eyes and stiff limbs. Peshino constantly rocks around whilst playing a concertina.

Peshino was originally a transformation very early in development, before being thought to be reused as a life system for Don't Make A Sound in the April 2021 Build. In the final game, it then was turned back into a transformation if the player gets jumpscared by a Toppin Monster, making the player lose 50 points in total. A separate Peshino also appears as a background decoration in the Staff Only floor of the Hub just outside of the door leading to the level.

Bacon God

Bacon God is a giant, realistic looking pig that appears in the background of The Pig City's secret Bacon Room. He'll slowly approach Peppino from the darkness, and after a while he'll give the player a thumbs up and vanish. He reappears upon reentering the room.

Gabriel

Gabriel is a bald man with a black hat, who usually only shows his head. He is depicted either with a long, pointy nose or a short one depending on the sprite. He does not make any physical appearance in-game, only being referenced in some of the backgrounds.

A physical appearance was sprited in one of McPig's streams, but it never made it into the game. In this original appearance, he had his smaller nose, a cleft chin, was carrying a black bag, and his body was mostly inside a pizza box. He was originally planned to have a similar role to Snotty - being a character that appears only once and never again upon being defeated.^[1]

He is depicted as a shrimp salesman in his appearances in The Pig City and Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator, as well as an unused appearance in Peppibot Factory. He appears to sell his shrimp in different varieties, such as a large footlong shrimp and a breaded shrimp.

Cheeseclad

Cheeseclad is depicted as a smoother Cheeseslime with a small thin moustache wearing a an archer cap with a plume in it. He does not make any physical appearance, only appearing in Oh Shit!'s background as a graffiti and Don't Make A Sound with a product of his called, "Cheeseclad Bad Fortune Cookies".

Cheeseclad is presented as some sort of unsuccessful insightful philosopher, trying to dispense out wisdom to other people only for people to call him stupid, such as the sewer graffiti of his being vandalized, or for it to completely backfire on those who receive it.

Alien Guy

Alien Guy is a green alien wearing two brown hats on his eyes. He appears as more of a decoration that can be seen near the entrance to Deep-Dish 9's second secret.

Alien Guy was originally part of a scrapped mechanic where Peppino would have to deliver a pizza to him. After delivering the pizza, the Alien Guy would give Peppino some Pizza Coins.

King Noyz

King Noyz was planned to be a third player character, but was scrapped on April 4th, 2020.

No official design for him exists, but McPig described that he would look like The Noise, except his primary color would be purple and he would have a Burger King-esque crown and a beard.

He was planned to have abilities like The Noise in Noise's Hardoween demo.

Secret King

Secret King is a character that appears in the game's Sound Test room. It is unlocked after completing every secret.

Secret King is a large pink humanoid man, his eyes notably look similar to the Secret Eyes, and he wears a slightly darker pink robe and crown.

Not much is known about him currently other than his presumed connection to the Secret Eyes.

El Diego

El Diego is a Venezuelan Doise look-alike with darker blue clothes who was posing as The Doise for part of the Ancient Aliens stream (right before The Noise update) until his true identity was revealed. One of his lines may imply that he is a drug boss. During the stream, his hat was constantly Z fighting with his sprite, similar to Maurice's Mets cap which was also fighting with Maurice's z axis.

Gustavo's Swap Mode Actor

Gustavo's Swap Mode Actor is a character seen once in Pizza Tower on the end card of Swap Mode. Unlike Maurice (Peppino's Swap Mode actor), this character hasn't been fleshed out by McPig.

Trivia

Peshino's name comes from a Don't Make A Sound background, where he's referred to as "Peshino The Italian Chef" on a poster.
- Peshino being an animatronic is a reference to animatronics commonly used on most pizzerias, most notably Chuck E. Cheese's.
Peshino appearing after being jumpscared by a toppin monster could possibly be a reference to the game over screen from Five Nights at Freddy's, depicting the player stuffed into an animatronic suit.
Mr. Orange was originally planned to be a co-op character for Peppino, having Noise's old moveset and some of Peppino's moves. That, however, was left as an idea and likely won't be used.
Mr. Orange's name is based on Mr. Green from Yo! Noid, similar to how the Noise is based on the Noid.
- Mr. Orange was originally named Kenneth, referencing the mentally ill Kenneth Lamar Noid who held a Chamblee, Georgia's Domino's hostage after thinking they named the Noid after him. McPig quickly renamed him after learning that there was more to it than just a hostage situation, realizing the name was very insensitive of him.
  - It was considered to just call him Ken, but that also got changed due to the reference still being too apparent despite the name being shortened.
    - Another early name for Mr. Orange was Scott, as a reference to one of the presidents of Domino's Pizza, most infamously known for his appearance in the Hatsune Miku Domino's App promotion; however, this name was quickly dropped in favor of Mr. Orange.
