U.F.Olive

From Pizza Tower Wiki

Template:Basic Enemy Info (Better) U.F.Olive (short for Unidentified Flying Olive) is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

U.F.Olive is a green olive with beady eyes and very thin arms and legs that rides in a purple U.F.O.

Behaviour

U.F.Olive flies around and drops harmful olive-like atom-shaped portals down from his U.F.O that hurt the player on contact. If the player ground pounds, they will hover towards the ceiling of the room they are in. U.F.Olive has one of the most unique behaviors under high Heat Meter levels, as when defeated, the olive will jump out of its crashing U.F.O. to brandish a ray gun, walk around and fire at the player.

Trivia

  • Before the final design was chosen, Pizza Tower Guy made various prototype designs (as seen below) for this enemy. The first looked like a Cheeseslime in a robot suit, the second looks very similar to the final enemy, but smaller and with bigger eyes and the red spot of the olive being the mouth instead of a spot on the top of its head, and the third looked like a frog wearing a small helmet.
    • The frog design seems to a reference to the "It is Wednesday, my dudes." frog, as various images of said frog were on screen in Pizza Tower Guy's Twitch streams shortly before and after the design was sprited.
  • The U.F.Olive used to have a different behavior. Instead of hurting the player, the projectiles would instead teleport the player to a random warp point in the room, signified with an olive on top of a toothpick. It is unused why this was removed, but it might be that the U.F.Olive could crash the game if there were no warp points in its room, however this could only be seen through hacking.
  • U.F.Olive is the only enemy in the game to have a unique defeat animation, as when defeated, their U.F.O explodes, as signified by an explosion effect.
