— The Noise (via Toppinbot)

The Noise is the third boss in Pizza Tower, and an upcoming playable character.

Description

The Noise is a short, mischievous gremlin-like human. He dons a yellow jumpsuit and chef hat-shaped mask, an orange cape, and white gloves. He has a long nose, a thin, curled mustache, and a single bucktooth. The Noise's mannerisms are usually giddy, energetic and child-like. He frequently summons random, often wacky objects out of thin air, as seen in his movesets. Despite his goofy nature and appearance, he can become frighteningly demonic if angered.

The Noise hates the Pizza Tower, pizza, and Peppino (for making pizza). He prefers candy instead, as that is what he collects in the Hardoween demo.

Boss room

To access the boss room, the player needs to pay Mr. Stick $200 (20 Toppins).

The boss arena is a yellow inflated boxing ring. In the background lies a yellow 'N-TV' building on a vast sandy landscape, a giant camera, and a giant, inflated Noise Balloon floating around. Two creatures resembling flying Noiseys follow The Noise whilst holding recording equipment. In his boss intro, The Noise taunts Peppino by scaring him with a mask resembling the latter, takes it off before laughing at him, and starts the fight.

Right before the second phase, the giant Noise balloon crashes into the arena, remaining there for the rest of the fight.

Boss Behavior

Phase 1

The Noise will taunt for a second at the beginning of the fight, allowing the player to attack him early and get a head-start in the fight. If the player attacks Noise during the taunt, it will replace Noise's first skateboard attack to account for him having less health than usual.

The Noise will perform a spin before between every attack he does, and every attack he chooses is random. He will always do each attack a minimum of two times, regardless of which order he does it in. The Noise will taunt the player after every attack, leaving himself wide open for a counterattack. The Noise tends to land near the player after being hurt, so the player must stay clear as The Noise recovers and performs his spin attack.

Skateboard

The Noise rides his skateboard across the ring, occasionally jumping. If he jumps onto a wall, he will bounce off it.

Pogo Stick + Dropping Bombs

The Noise jumps around the player on a pogo stick; if the skateboard attack has been used before, he will drop a bouncing bomb to follow the player, exploding after a few seconds or upon contact with the player or a wall.

Jetpack Dash & Bounce

The Noise launches himself towards the player with a jetpack. After hitting a wall, he will spin and bounce around the room until taunting. The more this attack is used, the more The Noise bounces around the walls and floor before taunting.

Hot Air Balloon + Dropping Bombs

The Noise jumps into the air and onto his Noise-faced hot air balloon. The ride floats back and forth and drops bombs onto the player. If this attack is being used for the first time, The Noise will drop 1 bomb; if not, he will drop 2 bombs. The Noise will jump out and will ground pound, often above the player.

Phase 2

After getting hit 8 times, The Noise and Peppino get into a small scuffle until the giant Noise balloon crashes into the arena. Afterwards, The Noise regenerates his HP, and his attacks change slightly, generally becoming more difficult to avoid.

Noiseys

Noiseys will constantly spawn from the upper corners of the arena. They act like Forknights, and can be thrown at The Noise to stun him for an easy attack.

Fakeout Taunt

After finishing the Hot Air Balloon attack, The Noise will stand still taunting indefinitely, waiting to be hit. Once the player is close enough, The Noise will explode, revealing itself to be a fake as the real Noise slams down from the sky.

Noise Crusher

After finishing the Pogo Stick attack, The Noise bounds high into the air with the Noise Crusher and slams into the ground, creating a shockwave that must be jumped over in order to avoid.

Jetpack Explosion

After finishing the Jetpack attack, the jetpack will explode upon touching the ground, damaging the player and any enemies nearby.

Skateboard Kick

After The Noise finishes skateboarding, he'll kick the skateboard at the player and do one of his taunts. If Peppino gets caught by the skateboard, he'll uncontrollably ride it to the other side of the arena and won't have enough time to hit The Noise.

End of the fight

After Phase 2 is finished, another fight will break out between Peppino and The Noise, until a minigun falls from the top of the screen and into the hands of The Noise. Before The Noise is able to fire it, however, Noisette walks in and drags him off-stage as he screams in horror, depleting his final hit point.

Boss Rematch

After beating the final boss’ second phase, he will bring in the four previous bosses, and sends each of them to attack. Despite each boss having 8 HP and an extra 8 HP afterwards, 4 HP will be drained per hit. The player fights each of the bosses one by one, and they use some of the same attacks as before. After defeating Pepperman, Gustavo will appear for the player to grab and throw him at the remaining three bosses to stun them.

The Noise is the third boss in the rematch. He does the same attacks as his original boss fight, but usually being less powerful than in the main fight itself.

After 4 hits, The Noise will go down, and the player will face Fake Peppino.

Chef Tasks

Denoise Defeat The Noise without getting hurt.

In the comics

The Noise appears in both the Peppino and Noise Comics and The Bad, The Ugly, and The Even Uglier comics.

In Peppino and Noise Comics, he is often seen tormenting and bothering Peppino. His girlfriend, Noisette, is also seen in one of these comics, frightening him.

In The Bad, The Ugly, and The Even Uglier, he is seen at a location called the Noise TV Outpost, where he films himself advertising a party that is supposedly going on there and guards a Pillar John that stands there. This set of comics shows the more serious, less goofier side of The Noise, with him often getting tired of doing his job and pretending to be wacky and crazy.

In these comics, he also has a Pizzard assistant known as Dougie Jones, who tries his best to help him, but often fails to, as seen when he makes The Noise some tequila and he dislikes it due to it being pizza flavored. During the storyline of the comics, The Noise hears that Pepperman had been attacked by someone who "moves really fast" in a town that he had been trying to take over, which leads him to go off and help him, thinking that the "guy who moves really fast" was Peppino, taking Dougie with him. As the set of comics hasn't been finished yet, it is unknown what he does once he reaches the town.

Trivia

This section is dedicated to trivia and miscellaneous information about The Noise.
Remember to read the wiki's trivia guidelines before adding trivia or making changes.

• The Noise will be playable in a future update.
  • The Doise was planned to replace The Noise in the 3rd boss fight if the player is playing as The Noise, although it is unknown if this is still the case.
  • As of the Pumpkin Hunt update, one can use the command "switch_char" in debug to play as "Pogo Noise."
  • A trailer released on December 22nd revealing The Noise to use his skateboard moveset with a few other moves added for him.
• Noise's design and character, including his hatred of pizza, are references to the Noid, the anti-mascot of real-life food chain Domino's Pizza. The Noid spends most of his time trying to destroy pizzas with his signature Pizza Crusher and other wacky gadgets, only failing thanks to Domino's Pizza.
  • McPig has jokingly stated in an interview that a Domino's Pizza-inspired boss would either have to be a Noid-knockoff or a character based off of Hatsune Miku, due to her minor association with Domino's Pizza. Specifically, her inclusion in the discontinued Japanese food delivery mobile app "Domino's App feat. Hatsune Miku."
• The Noise's design was slightly different in earlier versions of the game, with his hat more closely resembling a pizza, and a pizza emblem on his chest. The design was simplified to make him easier to animate.
• McPig stated that The Noise's voice is designed to sound similar to Jazz Jackrabbit, from the series of the same name.
• On a stream, McPig mentioned that The Noise is of Mexican descent.
• The Noise is the only boss in Pizza Tower (excluding Pizzaface) that cannot regain a health point if a finishing blow is not dealt after depleting all their health.
• In earlier demos, before the player could move around when holding an enemy, Noise's gimmick was that he couldn't reach Mach 3. This was most prominent in the GOLF demo, so when playing as him, all Metal Blocks break instantly, minus the ones in Freezer.
• Based on the full Pizza Tower Soundtrack Album Cover, it's likely that The Noise has hair underneath his hat.
• The name of the Noise's boss fight soundtrack is officially recognized as "Pumpin' Hot Stuff." However, in the sound test room, it is labeled "Pimpin' Hot Stuff," which may be a typo. However, it could also reference the Noise boss fight from the Peppino's Xmas Break demo, which bears the same name.
• It has been said that the Noise's full name is Theodore Noise, which is shortened to The Noise.
  • Noise's full name was originally Theodore J. Noisester, but got changed to just "Theodore Noise".
