Weenie

"60 hours a week guarding some run-down tower and I don't even gets paid vacation? Howsabout we take this out back an discuss it?"

Weenie is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Weenie is a sausage with legs wearing a fedora. Smoked Weenie looks almost the same, however he is brown and is smoking a cigar.

Behaviour

Weenie walks around. When hit, he will roll into a ball, damaging anything that gets in its path until hitting a wall.

After his ball form, he will be stunned, allowing for the player to grab him. If he isn't defeated after getting stunned, after getting up he will stand in place for a bit before going back to walking. He also does this when first encountering him or when the player makes the ground shake.

Variants

There are two variants of this enemy, the regular red one and the more dangerous smoked one.

The Smoked Weenie smokes a cigar that can hurt the player when touching it. This makes jumping on it or attacking from behind a better option than attacking from the front.

Trivia

Smoked Weenies originally were the same color as normal Weenies. This was possibly changed to differentiate the two some more, and in the files of Demo 0, the smoked weenie is red.
He had full stun animations, which, like all other enemies that had it, now go unused.
Weenie used to be called "Mr. Sausageman", as seen by its filename, which could be a reference to the composer Mr. Sauceman.
Weenie's design is based on Peter, the main character from an unfinished game that Pizza Tower Guy worked on before working on Pizza Tower known as Weenie Cop.
Weenie is also Pizza Tower Guy's 5$ Patreon tier.
