Ninja Slice

Template:Basic Enemy Info (Better) Ninja Slice is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Ninja Slice is a cheese pizza slice with light brown arms and legs. It wears a ninja mask, gloves and shoes, all in red. It has a fierce look and is often seen in a fighting stance when not disguised. Ninja Slices occasionally appear with different mask and glove colors, such as purple, pink, blue, or orange, corresponding with the color of Pizza Boy it disguised as. This is purely cosmetic.

Behaviour

Ninja Slice disguises itself as a Pizza Boy cutout, being provoked when the player gets close. It will initially jump at the player with a high-reaching uppercut attack. From there, Ninja Slice will take to the ground in fighting stance, stepping forward or backward to keep a set distance between it and the player, and releasing a flurry of kicks from time to time. Ninja Slice's can drop off of platforms while it attempts to keep its distance, which may cause it to inadvertently fall into hazards such as water.

Trivia

• Ninja Slice may be a reference to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise.
  • This is made even more likely due to the fact that the they appear in is Oh Shit!
• Originally, after jumping out at the player, Ninja Slice would start to chase after the player while holding out its two pizza cutters. It would also tend to jump again when near the player during chasing.
• The way a Ninja Slice disguises as a Pizza Boy before attacking may be a reference to superheroes tending to be secret identities of ordinary people.
• Ninja Slice's Heat Meter attack was throwing out a series of punches that shoot out energy projectiles at the player instead of kicking.
  • Despite Heat Meter attacks being removed in PT_Eggplantv15, and being reused for couple of the elite enemies, Ninja Slice and Shrimp Thug remained the only enemies to still using Heat Meter behaviour.
