IKR! Literally the only thing that really brings them down is my own bad experiences trying to P-Rank them or because they were less awesome than others
Pig city isn't good just because it adds new gimmicks, but because every gimmick is two-sided, and functions totally differently for Gustavo and Brick's portion of gameplay.
When I played Gnome Forest, I did not like how Gustavo and Brick played. The level structure was a bit cramped and went on forever, plus it introduces that damn Pickle and the stupid Pizzard. Not a great intro. Then I played Pig City, and wondered if I was just bad with Gustavo, because Pig City was amazing.
I genuinely do love that you mention some positives in the lower ranked levels while still giving them their fair criticism and reasonable reasons for their placements. Really does go to show the quality of Pizza Tower honestly. Joder buen Lario.
Like they're only lower cause of my bad experiences with them trying to get a P-Rank or because they aren't AS epic as other levels Truly a phenomenal game
Nothing will top War as my personal favourite. Its such a standout for being a constant escape, and although the second lap feels really empty cause without a pillar in the level, theres no respawning enemies on lap 2, it still feels exhilarating, especially since you know that that time you have is ALL you have left to make it around again, no top ups to help. Also the timer being a straight game over rather than spawning pizza face makes it probably the most intense level imo, since there is no dodging death if you run out of time, you just gotta keep running.
War breaks basically the entire game formula and still manages to be an amazing and unique level. Especially out of every level its so unique and so unexpected in a game that is entirely themed around pizza to see a level that has nearly nothing to do with pizza. Those and its track and its gameplay make it my absolute favorite level.
It's very similar to the Wario Land 4 level "Golden Passage" or perhaps some other levels too when you are playing on Hard mode. Basically, it's the same formula as Pizza Tower (Explore, find goodies, hit thing, escape) but on those few levels its "Enter level right on top of switch, immediately land on the switch starting the timer, run around to find the goodies you need and escape while you still can"
When I climbed P-Rank mountain, doing all levels in order, I expected Pizzascare to be the worst experience, based on all that I'd heard. But I wound up having a much, much harder time with Freezerator. So much so that once i finally P-ranked it, the entire rest of the game fell within hours.
P-Ranking Freezerator destroyed me too. Turned it from a level I liked to a level I hated. However, getting the John clothes reminded me that if I didn't care about the combo meter, it was a really good level.
Both of them have a couple sections where even if you don't make a mistake you can fuck the run if you don't play them perfect. Pizzascare became way easier once I discovered that you could supertaunt the ghosts so I didn't had to waste time to kill them with the powerup. As the video said, the only real hard part was the entrance to the janitor room, but since it was at the end of the run and so easy to mess up it kind of makes the level feel harder than it really is. But god damn freezerator, you can lose the combo in so many parts: Didn't go too fast? Too bad, you lost the combo timer. Went too fast? Too bad, you fell to the void. Smacked once against a wall? Too bad now a freaking snowman will be at the perfect spot to stop your charge and make you lose the combo.
The Crumbling Tower of Pizza is such a simple but fun level to replay after beating the game. Mad respect for anyone that P ranks all levels in the game. I gave up after P Ranking a few levels on the first floor and I think it's just more work than I want to commit to.
It was stressful ngl, I still feel the adrenaline and how my hands cramped due to anxiety But I would do it again, I love this game so much, maybe one day you can try it too! Even just going for S Rank is fun too
Boy. Don't give up. If you ever try again. As someone who is working to P rank fake peppino and pizzaface abd bloodsauce dungeon. Has P ranked john gutter pizzascape ancient cheese pepperman noise AND the vigilante ( most likely misspelled that. ) Edit. I beat bloodsauce dungeon with a P rank.
Well that's a lil change of words I used to attract a few clicks not gonna lie lol But that's why at the beginning I start by saying "From the LEAST GOOD, to the absolute best!..." Gotta make things a bit clearer

What I love about The Pig City is during the Peppino section of the escape sequence, the entire city is lit ablaze making you run through a burning city. As if smashing John created something to light the city on fire. I also love the elderly pig's reaction when you destroy Pillar John, realizing how fucked everyone was.
the funny thing about golf is by the point you get to it, the game has conditioned you to accept so much wacky shit that a guy loudly enjoying a Chease Bunger™ being used as a sample seems perfectly normal ...and then it gets away with having waters of nazareth, and people seem to forget that it and good eatin' are from the same game
Personally R-R-Freezer is my favorite, AND the first song that plays (called “don’t preheat your oven or the song won’t play”) is my favorite non-boss track in the game. I can see it being forgettable to some people, but then again, cmon man!! On the Rocks compliments the Satan’s Choice Pizza segment so well!!
YESS YESS I looked at this before I got the game and it was the only song that I looked at, and it was just so good, I don’t really know how to describe it besides saying it’s amazing. That’s all. Anyway I was kinda disappointed listening to it in the game because I could barely hear the actual song, only hearing the wavy tune through all of the sound affects, so I can see why it’s forgettable, though once you really hear it, it immediately catches you’re eye.
Nice video Boy,the feeling of using the shotgun in the Don't Make a Sound level is sooooo good!It's like '*loads gun* IT'S PAYBACK TIME! YOU ANIMATRONICS!'
19:37 That sample also appears in "Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix" and when I heard this in Pizza Tower, I was overcome with a wave of nostalgia since DDR:MM was the first time I heard this sample. Pretty interesting stuff if you ask me.
I also hear that it also samples stuff from a Shin Megami Tensei game I'm not 100% sure of this, but I heard some friends mention it when they told me about the Sonic Rush sample
I haven't been very lucky with the algorithm, it kinda hates me lol I've been doing this for years, recently it was my channel's 5th anniversary actually! I keep pushing cause I'm genuinely passionate about this and it fills me so much Hope you enjoy what else I have to offer!
war isnt #1? 13:21 is completely false, too. Everyone knows on the rocks is one of the best songs in the game! All seriousness, I love this video. I hope more of these are created, I love hearing other peoples thoughts on things
"gnome forest was truly built with them in mind" meanwhile the beta versions of it where you play as peppino through half of it with mostly the same layout as the current version
I feel like, in a lesser game, Don’t Make a Sound would be the worst level: I mean, a STEALTH level in a momentum-based speedy platformer sounds like water and oil. But, thank McPig for realizing this because apparently the original level design was Garbo, it’s only stealth by technicality, because the name of the game in Don’t Make a Sound *IS* speed. You can take the level slow and methodical, but it actually becomes easier and flows better as you go faster. Pizza Tower levels in general just have wonderful level design that encourages players to learn the level layouts to maximize time spent dashing, but Don’t Make a Sound is just… It’s so genius with how it tackles that basic rule. Pig City number one BASED THO?
@@TheGameShelf i'm late but i think an early build for that level was whenever you get a topping a monster chases you in a maze ? Like you get the cheese toppin'and the Big fucking cheese thing which is the only actually creepy one in the game start chasing you , i think this version IS much better but i would have liked to see how it turned out Also bonus fact : What's on the kid menu , the song for the 2nd part of fun farm was supose to be don't make a sound's song , i tried changing the music and it's so much more ... Weird XD
I absolutely loved your reaction from seeing the A Rank on Fun Farm. That is a feeling and a half for anyone who thought they did a perfect run only to realize they missed a topping.
A LOT of my favorites got shafted early on, and your worst is my personal favorite. Still, Pig City being number one is entirely deserved, the enemies and mechanics are amazing in that level, especially with Gustavo contrasting Peppino. Why do I love Pizzascare more than that, though? Simple, I consider Pizzascare to be the epitome of Pizza Tower: sufficiently ridiculous, entirely fair, a bit comedic, and a LOT cooler than anyone expected. The theming’s amazing and fits both a Halloween level and Pizza Tower. Heck, I didn’t think I’d like the level so much when I first played it, but I had an absolute blast with the casual run and, surprisingly, the P-rank attempts.
Ah damn pizzascare is probably my favorite level, #1 every video game needs a Halloween themed level #2 it’s difficulty is how a level in a final world should be! I wish we got ghost peppino to return though.
The second and third achievements for John Gutter are very smart. Despite being the first level, those achievements are *not* easy; they may be some of the hardest in the game in comparison to the difficulty of the level itself. But in doing so, they act as a lovely little tutorial for what it takes to P-Rank a stage. The speed run achievement is something that no other level really asks of you. Even P-ranking a stage doesn’t require that much speed, and getting the achievement requires you to skip toppings and the secret. But it teaches you just how much flow and speed you can achieve with Peppino, and how to maintain his speed throughout an entire level. Getting a combo of 99 is insane, and it requires you to basically clear out the entire level, while also doing a second lap. This is something that’s much more applicable to a P-Rank. It teaches you how to start a combo, keep it going, and how to make it work through an entire level twice over. If you do those achievements, it’s honestly a very quick path from there to doing P-Ranks, and you learn how good it feels to play this game at a higher level. For that, John Gutter is an extremely important level, and its crazy hard achievements are a major part of that design.
I love Pizza Scare's design level, but I loathed P rank that level. But breaking out the ghost in TV's to continue, and doing all those dodges were really fun. Screw getting into the first secret room in PizzaScare
As someone who also has recently p-ranked pizzascare, i also agree, imo, the worst parts are reaching the secrets + the treasure themselves, doing lap 2 and pizza time are already easy, but yeah, it's really, REALLY UNFORGIVING at moments pizzascare
@@TheGameShelf i think 20 unique themes cuz it's pizza time have the same leimotif as John gutter's theme (idk it's name srry) so somthing i would have liked to see IS a pizza time version of tubular trash zone since it's to me the most upbeat song along side deep Dish 9's Also isn't thousand march (war's theme) a pizza time variant ?
Besides, Don't Make A Sound is very well placed in the game, being one of the last levels, expecting you to master Peppino in all of his Italian glory, meaning that the secrets become only more punishing courses, that aren't as hard as they look. You are also encouraged to go fast despite it being a Stealth level, such as by taking out the patrollers when they see you, or by running away when they start alerting the robots.
tbh i really like don't make a sound, john gutter, and war. i think those are my favorites. and i gotta say, the final boss was one of my favorite gaming experiences ever.
I'm planning to make a video on ALL the bosses once I finish 2 projects I'm working on, I don't mind to return again to this game just because of how good it is
13:19 It surprises me hearing that you don't like the music in this level. I personally think it's one of the best in the game, with how bouncy it sounds, reminds me a lot of Tim Follin's music for SNES titles, and its motif you hear when you defeat pizzahead is the cherry on top of the final boss battle, followed by the greatest video game cutscene in history.
It's not like I dislike it, I just didn't find it memorable especially compared to other songs in the game, HOWEVER, I wanna say that after releasing this video I've come to appreciate the song more, it's really solid and I love how it is used as a leitmotif in the final boss theme, but there's still other songs I like more
I was never a Wario Land fan, but seeing you praising this game that much kinda makes me want to play at least one of them Good video as always Luis, keep up the hard work!
I have to disagree on R.R. Freezerator's music being forgettable, it has a fairly unique sound to it to accompany the ice theming and is pretty catchy. Of course taste in music is subjective but it seems to be one of the more well liked songs in the soundtrack from what I've seen.
Yeah I kinda messed up there, I honestly gave the song a better chance afterwards and I ended up liking it more Guess it just didn't stick with me as fast as other tracks so that's why I said it was "forgettable"
Very glad the algorithm gave me this video and your channel. I’ve been binging your videos for a while and I love them. Thanks so much for your great content and keep on going!
That's super nice of you to say and I mean it, makes me happy you decided to give a chance to my other content! Thank you so much and I'm happy you're enjoying them!
i think the weird opinion of bloodsauce dungeon came from early demos, where after you hit lava peppino would look at his butt to check for burns, it made it take twice as long and i feel like it left a sour taste in peoples mouths
My personal favorite is DMaS. The achivements (Especially the one where you can never trigger an alarm unless needed) are both challenging and fun! Very fitting for the first level of the 5th floor and definitely defines the rest of the floor.
You forgot to mention War's song (or at least go into detail on it), I mean, imagine capturing Justice's first album essence that much that 2 people just went and mashed it up with Waters of Nazareth because of how good they fit together
it's a general consensus that peppibot factory is on the lower end of levels, and yeah that makes sense but you can't undermine the fact that the cans the red sausages drop upon death says "whoop" on it the game's opening a can of whoopage (the joke makes more sense if you say it the correct way but i don't feel like it) on you
Fun fact: pizzasscare IS a spooky version of pizzascape because when pizza tower was an finished they released a Halloween version of pizzascape that’s harder then the original
I actually put off looking up your channel after seeing you comment after your Facebook posts for months. And I'm so sorry for not checking sooner! You have a great voice and so much energy! Keep it up sir :))
Given how much you mention the music (and how much I like to listen to the soundtrack in my day to day), why don't you make a quick list ranking the soundtrack? Just be sure to mention the Jet Set Radio reference for one of the pieces
That's a pretty good idea actually! Maybe I can consider it for a future video. I'm not the biggest expert at describing music honestly, but it can be fun to try especially with all the samples and references Pizza Tower has to other games, and speaking of... where's the JSR reference? I still dont play that series lol
@@TheGameShelf No problem. Put as much detail into it as you think is necessary; and let the music speak as much as possible. As for the JSR reference; "I don't understand what's going on here" Pizza Tower; ruclips.net/video/M-dr4viC_hY/видео.html Jet Set Radio; ruclips.net/video/SL_jZSRZ_Bo/видео.html
I can totally understand your point of view on theses level, even if i don't have at all the same ranking list, but still, you're right on so many points
If someone makes a level with some of Don’t Make A Sound’s backgrounds, a mashup of Dungeon Freakshow and Tunnely Shimbers, gives it WAR’s timer, and the King Ghost, they don’t have existence insurance anymore
The Crumbling Tower of Pizza is seriously the best level. I adore how they just threw in almost every single obstacle and powerup they can cram into it, it really makes you feel like a god for completing it! Also, who needs Toppins, Lap 2 and secret doors when you just simply rescue all your allies and foes!
For me, Oregano Desert is the number one, simply because of the music and theme. But gosh, the music gives me so much energy, i used it to run home one day from my dorm, carrying a luggage behind my back, running like Peppino in Mach 2. XD
If we’re talking favorite levels, I’d actually have to pick Wasteyard as my top favorite. I’ve always been a fan of haunted themed levels in games, personally, so that may have something to do with it. Fastfood Saloon is up there as well, though the horse races annoyed me somewhat.
Honestly one of the best level ranking videos i've seen so far! One that really stuck out to me is how low you rated pizzascare. The level wasn't too fun for me at the start BUT being able to consistently P rank it feels amazing. It might be one of the funnest levels in the game imo
as a person who P-Ranked Gnome Forest It was a pain P-ranking that level cause it was long but I had fun, the Gustavo and Brick part is pretty fun also
In my own opinion, War Level is the best level in pizza tower. I LOVE how this is set up, the previous levels weren't so punishing and actually gave you room for opportunity and clearly showed you a way without being too ruahed. But ohoho WAR, did pretty much the opposite, at first the level gives off a strange impression because there's no music, and it seemes pretty empty, but from the moment you pick up that shotgun and see the timer appear, your aenaea start to kick in, you've used a shotgun before but this was different, instead of giving you time to accomodate more with the shotgun, it fucking kicka you in like a baby turtle getting outta sand, it literally feels lime getting kicked in a warzone, going through the level can be rough considering there's a lot of complicated sections it feela so hard to get through the first time, and the music TRULY makes you feel that you're not in your average level anymore, you're in the "LAST" level and stretch, the timer kicking down gives you nerves considering a lot of times it can go pretty low, and when getting a time block, you feel safe for a few moments but then realize your time is running out again and you get even more nervous, ending up dying most of the times, and when you get to the lab or around that part, that fucking drop man its so goooood! But i think one of the best parts is mastering it, after learning the level it feels so fun and satisfying to go through the level, pass sections you thought before would never get through perfectly, and the shotgun only makes it better, on lap 2 it's pretty much a winning strech unless you mess up, but holy shit this level gives me hype even when i play it for the 200th time. No other level gives me this exact feeling, another thing i love is the shock you probably get when entering a secret, at first you think you're getting a break but seeing that timer tick makes you panic even more, specially if you have low time and try to do the secret as best as you can but ending probably dying. I love everything about this level, also the filter is pretty damn awesome too.
One detail I absolutely adore about WAR and I forgot to mention here, is that the secrets are not hidden at all, you can easily get to them but... with only 30 seconds left, do you want to? I remember the first time finishing WAR I said "Ok I'm skipping all secrets and once I learn this level I'll go back to get them, and I was just barely able to win
Fun fact about pizzascare: it was originally a Halloween demo version of pizza scape where you got to play as the noise. The demo was called hardoween! I was surprised to see pizza scare in the full game!
It was generally a really good list. I agree with lots of things you said and ranked... but there are 2 things I would change: 1. Crust cove should be lower like #8-9 2. Pizzascare is one of my favorite levels man like #6-4, but it seems I'm probably the only 5 people that enjoy pizzascare :( But opinions are subjective, just like food and music
That's what I love about making these videos, what kind of different opinions people will have And that's the thing, Pizza Tower in general has 20 fantastic levels that make people have super varied lists
Personally, the crumbling tower of pizza is my favorite level. The music as peppino is so amazing. It is a remix of pizza time but it makes you feel more confident. The noise CToP music is amazing! It makes you feel even more confident but worried at the same time. Which makes since because it is supposed to be the final heart pounding scene for the movie. And the whole level is amazing too! I like how (almost) every gimmick comes back. It is like a trip down memory lane. This is also amazing cause if you are doing 101% in chronological order, this level is really easy to p rank once again putting confidence in you. So yea, Crumbling tower of pizza is my favorite level.
Deep Dish 9 is one of those levels I didn't really remember when I first played but quickly became my favorite after S ranking it Hopefully the P rank doesn't make me hate it JSKSBDBD
Nah, I think the P-Rank of that level is super fair, as long as you remember the locations of all secrets and Gerome you should be fine There's only one part at the end that can be super annoying, when you have to hit a switch to swap the blocks, but aside from that the level should be P-Ranked in a few tries! Best of luck
Better thing about WAR is that secrets and Gerome are straight up on your face, but the panic you get from timer doesn't even want you to stop and get them
I totally agree with P ranking John Gutter. As it was my (and probably many others) first attempt at P ranking when i finally did it...I found that the route of doing so was so fun on its own that i P ranked it 2 more times immediately afterwards because its just so amazing to traverse on fast pace
Tower lobby:18+13+6+5/4=11 Western district:14+12+10+9/4=11.25 Vacation resort:16+15+11+2/4= 11 Slum:19+17+8+1/8.75 Staff only:20+7+4+3/8.5 5. Western district 4. Tower lobby & 3. Vacation Resort (These two can be changed by you) 2. Slum 1. Staff Only (This is score average for your list)
A tip to p rank pizzacare: if you going at the max Mach speed and your gotta go through a charge block you can actually go through it because king ghost is a little slow to activate it so yea here ya go
Thank you so much friend! I love to deliver variety in content so I hope you enjoy what I deliver! Maybe I'll get you interested in new stuff, but up to you!
even the lower ranked levels get tons of praise, it truly shows how awesome this game is

19:37 That sample also appears in "Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix" and when I heard this in Pizza Tower, I was overcome with a wave of nostalgia since DDR:MM was the first time I heard this sample. Pretty interesting stuff if you ask me.
I also hear that it also samples stuff from a Shin Megami Tensei game
I'm not 100% sure of this, but I heard some friends mention it when they told me about the Sonic Rush sample
@@TheGameShelf If Pizza Tower does sample SMT sound effects, then they're going all out with the Neganuma influence. Top notch stuff.
you know somebody’s really excited when they do the p rank pose after getting one
And that was the case for almost all the levels, it's an experience I'll never forget
with the pure quality of this guys videos i’m surprised he only has around 12k subs but damn it’ll be fun seeing this channel grow high
I haven't been very lucky with the algorithm, it kinda hates me lol
I've been doing this for years, recently it was my channel's 5th anniversary actually! I keep pushing cause I'm genuinely passionate about this and it fills me so much
Hope you enjoy what else I have to offer!
war isnt #1?
13:21 is completely false, too. Everyone knows on the rocks is one of the best songs in the game!
All seriousness, I love this video. I hope more of these are created, I love hearing other peoples thoughts on things
I have more rankings on different stuff from different franchises if you're interested, thanks for the watch!
"gnome forest was truly built with them in mind" meanwhile the beta versions of it where you play as peppino through half of it with mostly the same layout as the current version
I feel like, in a lesser game, Don’t Make a Sound would be the worst level: I mean, a STEALTH level in a momentum-based speedy platformer sounds like water and oil.
But, thank McPig for realizing this because apparently the original level design was Garbo, it’s only stealth by technicality, because the name of the game in Don’t Make a Sound *IS* speed. You can take the level slow and methodical, but it actually becomes easier and flows better as you go faster. Pizza Tower levels in general just have wonderful level design that encourages players to learn the level layouts to maximize time spent dashing, but Don’t Make a Sound is just… It’s so genius with how it tackles that basic rule.
Pig City number one BASED THO?
Don't make a sound also feels like a maze at first but it's when you master it that you realize how well it flows
@@TheGameShelf i'm late but i think an early build for that level was whenever you get a topping a monster chases you in a maze ? Like you get the cheese toppin'and the Big fucking cheese thing which is the only actually creepy one in the game start chasing you , i think this version IS much better but i would have liked to see how it turned out
Also bonus fact :
What's on the kid menu , the song for the 2nd part of fun farm was supose to be don't make a sound's song , i tried changing the music and it's so much more ... Weird XD
Seeing this just makes me even more excited to get my hands on the game eventually! What a fantastic selection of levels!
i like how brain works like every time u get jumpscared in a game where u must run from things that try to jumpscare u the "joyscare" word uses there
I absolutely loved your reaction from seeing the A Rank on Fun Farm. That is a feeling and a half for anyone who thought they did a perfect run only to realize they missed a topping.
Crazy how the best 2 levels in the game both use samples Sonic Rush also uses
Very solid ranking of these levels!
A LOT of my favorites got shafted early on, and your worst is my personal favorite. Still, Pig City being number one is entirely deserved, the enemies and mechanics are amazing in that level, especially with Gustavo contrasting Peppino. Why do I love Pizzascare more than that, though? Simple, I consider Pizzascare to be the epitome of Pizza Tower: sufficiently ridiculous, entirely fair, a bit comedic, and a LOT cooler than anyone expected. The theming’s amazing and fits both a Halloween level and Pizza Tower. Heck, I didn’t think I’d like the level so much when I first played it, but I had an absolute blast with the casual run and, surprisingly, the P-rank attempts.
Ah damn pizzascare is probably my favorite level, #1 every video game needs a Halloween themed level #2 it’s difficulty is how a level in a final world should be! I wish we got ghost peppino to return though.
The most levels I enjoy replaying the most is the ones in world 4
The second and third achievements for John Gutter are very smart. Despite being the first level, those achievements are *not* easy; they may be some of the hardest in the game in comparison to the difficulty of the level itself. But in doing so, they act as a lovely little tutorial for what it takes to P-Rank a stage.
The speed run achievement is something that no other level really asks of you. Even P-ranking a stage doesn’t require that much speed, and getting the achievement requires you to skip toppings and the secret. But it teaches you just how much flow and speed you can achieve with Peppino, and how to maintain his speed throughout an entire level. Getting a combo of 99 is insane, and it requires you to basically clear out the entire level, while also doing a second lap. This is something that’s much more applicable to a P-Rank. It teaches you how to start a combo, keep it going, and how to make it work through an entire level twice over.
If you do those achievements, it’s honestly a very quick path from there to doing P-Ranks, and you learn how good it feels to play this game at a higher level.
For that, John Gutter is an extremely important level, and its crazy hard achievements are a major part of that design.
I love Pizza Tower so far! The music and everything far exceeds my expectations, what an amazing gem of a game
It only gets better!
even the bad levels are good. this truly is one of the video games of all time
I love Pizza Scare's design level, but I loathed P rank that level. But breaking out the ghost in TV's to continue, and doing all those dodges were really fun.
Screw getting into the first secret room in PizzaScare
or the treasure room
it's better to do the #1 secret after pizza time
As someone who recently p-ranked pizzascare at the time of this comment : I agree, it is an absolute nightmare to p-rank
As someone who also has recently p-ranked pizzascare, i also agree, imo, the worst parts are reaching the secrets + the treasure themselves, doing lap 2 and pizza time are already easy, but yeah, it's really, REALLY UNFORGIVING at moments pizzascare
As someone who recently P-Ranked pizzas scare, I’ve put more time into pizzascare then Gnome Forest, Peppibot factory, and Oh Shit combined
I like to think each ranking the levels will be different because this game is so good that every level is awesome
If you didn't know they were going to do unique pizza time themes of the level's theme.
Oh, so like, 20 variations of It's Pizza Time?
@@TheGameShelf yep!
@@TheGameShelf i think 20 unique themes cuz it's pizza time have the same leimotif as John gutter's theme (idk it's name srry) so somthing i would have liked to see IS a pizza time version of tubular trash zone since it's to me the most upbeat song along side deep Dish 9's
Also isn't thousand march (war's theme) a pizza time variant ?
@@The_number_one_allnyta_enjoyer the John gutter theme is actually Peppino's motif
Besides, Don't Make A Sound is very well placed in the game, being one of the last levels, expecting you to master Peppino in all of his Italian glory, meaning that the secrets become only more punishing courses, that aren't as hard as they look. You are also encouraged to go fast despite it being a Stealth level, such as by taking out the patrollers when they see you, or by running away when they start alerting the robots.
Cool to see my P Rank runs make the rounds so much :)
tbh i really like don't make a sound, john gutter, and war. i think those are my favorites. and i gotta say, the final boss was one of my favorite gaming experiences ever.
I'm planning to make a video on ALL the bosses once I finish 2 projects I'm working on, I don't mind to return again to this game just because of how good it is
13:19 It surprises me hearing that you don't like the music in this level. I personally think it's one of the best in the game, with how bouncy it sounds, reminds me a lot of Tim Follin's music for SNES titles, and its motif you hear when you defeat pizzahead is the cherry on top of the final boss battle, followed by the greatest video game cutscene in history.
It's not like I dislike it, I just didn't find it memorable especially compared to other songs in the game, HOWEVER, I wanna say that after releasing this video I've come to appreciate the song more, it's really solid and I love how it is used as a leitmotif in the final boss theme, but there's still other songs I like more
I was never a Wario Land fan, but seeing you praising this game that much kinda makes me want to play at least one of them
Good video as always Luis, keep up the hard work!
I have to disagree on R.R. Freezerator's music being forgettable, it has a fairly unique sound to it to accompany the ice theming and is pretty catchy. Of course taste in music is subjective but it seems to be one of the more well liked songs in the soundtrack from what I've seen.
Yeah I kinda messed up there, I honestly gave the song a better chance afterwards and I ended up liking it more
Guess it just didn't stick with me as fast as other tracks so that's why I said it was "forgettable"
War was my favorite, being on the constant timer gave me a sense of urgency
I don’t know why people don’t like pizzascape. It’s one of my favorites. It’s very fun once you get good at it.
The knight.
Very glad the algorithm gave me this video and your channel. I’ve been binging your videos for a while and I love them. Thanks so much for your great content and keep on going!
That's super nice of you to say and I mean it, makes me happy you decided to give a chance to my other content! Thank you so much and I'm happy you're enjoying them!
YES FINALLY! A GAME SHELF VIDEO THAT GETS THE VIEWS IT DESERVES!!!
REALLY HOPE MORE VIDEOS GET IT AS GOOD AS THIS ONE, YOU DESERVE IT!!!
i think the weird opinion of bloodsauce dungeon came from early demos, where after you hit lava peppino would look at his butt to check for burns, it made it take twice as long and i feel like it left a sour taste in peoples mouths
That would make a lot of sense
I should try some of the early builds just because of how much I love this game, also I wanna try out Snicks
My personal favorite is DMaS. The achivements (Especially the one where you can never trigger an alarm unless needed) are both challenging and fun! Very fitting for the first level of the 5th floor and definitely defines the rest of the floor.
I'm especially fond of the achievement where you must defeat all animatronics with the shotgun cause said achievement is an Evil Dead reference
You forgot to mention War's song (or at least go into detail on it), I mean, imagine capturing Justice's first album essence that much that 2 people just went and mashed it up with Waters of Nazareth because of how good they fit together
Is never enough pizza tower in this channel LETS GOOOOOOO
it's a general consensus that peppibot factory is on the lower end of levels, and yeah that makes sense
but you can't undermine the fact that the cans the red sausages drop upon death says "whoop" on it
the game's opening a can of whoopage (the joke makes more sense if you say it the correct way but i don't feel like it) on you
WhoopAss.
The “Whoop this!” Achievement is fucking brilliant.
The secret room full of red sausages is fantastic doe, love the achievement you get in it
Fun fact: pizzasscare IS a spooky version of pizzascape because when pizza tower was an finished they released a Halloween version of pizzascape that’s harder then the original
I like how even the lowest rated levels can be are rated to be fun it really shows that this game is amazing
the shirtless p rank pose pop-off is one of the best things ive ever seen
I still want to compile my reacts to all my P-Ranks since I streamed them all
I think a friend got all the clips, I'll ask him for them
I actually put off looking up your channel after seeing you comment after your Facebook posts for months. And I'm so sorry for not checking sooner! You have a great voice and so much energy! Keep it up sir :))
Hey it's ok, it's not mandatory to check my content, but I'm happy you finally decided to give me a chance, thanks a lot for the support!
Given how much you mention the music (and how much I like to listen to the soundtrack in my day to day), why don't you make a quick list ranking the soundtrack?
Just be sure to mention the Jet Set Radio reference for one of the pieces
That's a pretty good idea actually! Maybe I can consider it for a future video.
I'm not the biggest expert at describing music honestly, but it can be fun to try especially with all the samples and references Pizza Tower has to other games, and speaking of... where's the JSR reference? I still dont play that series lol
@@TheGameShelf No problem. Put as much detail into it as you think is necessary; and let the music speak as much as possible.
As for the JSR reference;
"I don't understand what's going on here"
Pizza Tower; ruclips.net/video/M-dr4viC_hY/видео.html
Jet Set Radio; ruclips.net/video/SL_jZSRZ_Bo/видео.html
7:48 the instant switch in the face got me crying 🤣🤣💀
LMAO THE GAME MADE HIM A 🅿️rank
I can totally understand your point of view on theses level, even if i don't have at all the same ranking list, but still, you're right on so many points
7:52 the instant emotion switch
I actually was doing something while watching this video, and I came back to this part 7:52
The fact that there is a level called WAR is just wild for this game as a whole
MORE GAME SHELF IN LESS THAN A MONTH?
GODDAMN, NO ONE CAN STOP THIS MAD MAN????
If someone makes a level with some of Don’t Make A Sound’s backgrounds, a mashup of Dungeon Freakshow and Tunnely Shimbers, gives it WAR’s timer, and the King Ghost, they don’t have existence insurance anymore
The Crumbling Tower of Pizza is seriously the best level. I adore how they just threw in almost every single obstacle and powerup they can cram into it, it really makes you feel like a god for completing it! Also, who needs Toppins, Lap 2 and secret doors when you just simply rescue all your allies and foes!
I agree with everything on the list except that I think you should swap pizzascape with crumbling tower
For me, Oregano Desert is the number one, simply because of the music and theme. But gosh, the music gives me so much energy, i used it to run home one day from my dorm, carrying a luggage behind my back, running like Peppino in Mach 2. XD
19:36 a dude hacked a restaurants music at the beach and he decided to play the crust cove music ! I was shocked !
If we’re talking favorite levels, I’d actually have to pick Wasteyard as my top favorite. I’ve always been a fan of haunted themed levels in games, personally, so that may have something to do with it.
Fastfood Saloon is up there as well, though the horse races annoyed me somewhat.
7:50 I even Slow Down the video to check and there was no frame in between normal face in shock
Frame 0 shock lmao
Honestly one of the best level ranking videos i've seen so far! One that really stuck out to me is how low you rated pizzascare. The level wasn't too fun for me at the start BUT being able to consistently P rank it feels amazing. It might be one of the funnest levels in the game imo

4:54 P pose got real 💀
In my own opinion, War Level is the best level in pizza tower.
I LOVE how this is set up, the previous levels weren't so punishing and actually gave you room for opportunity and clearly showed you a way without being too ruahed.
But ohoho WAR, did pretty much the opposite, at first the level gives off a strange impression because there's no music, and it seemes pretty empty, but from the moment you pick up that shotgun and see the timer appear, your aenaea start to kick in, you've used a shotgun before but this was different, instead of giving you time to accomodate more with the shotgun, it fucking kicka you in like a baby turtle getting outta sand, it literally feels lime getting kicked in a warzone, going through the level can be rough considering there's a lot of complicated sections it feela so hard to get through the first time, and the music TRULY makes you feel that you're not in your average level anymore, you're in the "LAST" level and stretch, the timer kicking down gives you nerves considering a lot of times it can go pretty low, and when getting a time block, you feel safe for a few moments but then realize your time is running out again and you get even more nervous, ending up dying most of the times, and when you get to the lab or around that part, that fucking drop man its so goooood!
But i think one of the best parts is mastering it, after learning the level it feels so fun and satisfying to go through the level, pass sections you thought before would never get through perfectly, and the shotgun only makes it better, on lap 2 it's pretty much a winning strech unless you mess up, but holy shit this level gives me hype even when i play it for the 200th time.
No other level gives me this exact feeling, another thing i love is the shock you probably get when entering a secret, at first you think you're getting a break but seeing that timer tick makes you panic even more, specially if you have low time and try to do the secret as best as you can but ending probably dying.
I love everything about this level, also the filter is pretty damn awesome too.
One detail I absolutely adore about WAR and I forgot to mention here, is that the secrets are not hidden at all, you can easily get to them but... with only 30 seconds left, do you want to?
I remember the first time finishing WAR I said "Ok I'm skipping all secrets and once I learn this level I'll go back to get them, and I was just barely able to win
I ditail that a love about the crumbling tower of pizza is that In Floor 5 the John in the background smiles as he slowly crumbles
Recorded reaction of the first man who ordered Peppino’s Special Sausage Pizza deal: 7:52
Nah bro I would've probably done a poggers or something like that lmao
Bro is everywhere
16.05. It’s soooooooo True! I play the demo and the music was my favourite thing of all the demo!
Pretty wild how the original track literally had Wario's voice in it, but no wonder they changed it
@@TheGameShelf ok very interesting!
Fun fact about pizzascare: it was originally a Halloween demo version of pizza scape where you got to play as the noise. The demo was called hardoween! I was surprised to see pizza scare in the full game!
When I finished John Gutter with 99 combo I celebrated so hard. It’s may not be a big achievement for others but I was thrilled.
It*
Peppibot is one of my favourite levels actually, and I p-ranked everything too
It was generally a really good list. I agree with lots of things you said and ranked... but there are 2 things I would change:
1. Crust cove should be lower like #8-9
2. Pizzascare is one of my favorite levels man like #6-4, but it seems I'm probably the only 5 people that enjoy pizzascare :(
But opinions are subjective, just like food and music
That's what I love about making these videos, what kind of different opinions people will have
And that's the thing, Pizza Tower in general has 20 fantastic levels that make people have super varied lists
4:50 this is the most normal reaction to getting a p-rank in this game
Personally, the crumbling tower of pizza is my favorite level. The music as peppino is so amazing. It is a remix of pizza time but it makes you feel more confident. The noise CToP music is amazing! It makes you feel even more confident but worried at the same time. Which makes since because it is supposed to be the final heart pounding scene for the movie. And the whole level is amazing too! I like how (almost) every gimmick comes back. It is like a trip down memory lane. This is also amazing cause if you are doing 101% in chronological order, this level is really easy to p rank once again putting confidence in you. So yea, Crumbling tower of pizza is my favorite level.
Deep Dish 9 is one of those levels I didn't really remember when I first played but quickly became my favorite after S ranking it
Hopefully the P rank doesn't make me hate it JSKSBDBD
Nah, I think the P-Rank of that level is super fair, as long as you remember the locations of all secrets and Gerome you should be fine
There's only one part at the end that can be super annoying, when you have to hit a switch to swap the blocks, but aside from that the level should be P-Ranked in a few tries! Best of luck
6:02 everybody wanna be a superstar!
gettin lotta money drivin fancy cars
I’m sorry but 7:43 is just too priceless, especially your face when you see the lack of P
LMAO GOT 🅿️ranked
Better thing about WAR is that secrets and Gerome are straight up on your face, but the panic you get from timer doesn't even want you to stop and get them
10:26 even the song is called Yeehaw Deliveryboy
It's hard picking a favorite level. Or a favorite stage theme for that matter.
Bro died when he got en A instead of en P rank in Mort de chiken level
You'll be surprised at how much damage I did to myself trying to P-Rank levels lmao
100K VIEWS YEEEEES WE DID IT SHELFERS LET'S GOOOO
I totally agree with P ranking John Gutter.
As it was my (and probably many others) first attempt at P ranking when i finally did it...I found that the route of doing so was so fun on its own that i P ranked it 2 more times immediately afterwards because its just so amazing to traverse on fast pace
Bro refrigerator refrigerador freezerator music gives me a dire dire docks vibe for some reason
I can see it! Honestly I feel I've come to appreciate that song more AFTER I made this video lmao
Not one of my favorites, but I still like it

Thank you so much for real! You won't be disappointed
Also I love your Alma profile picture, I adore that game
A tip to p rank pizzacare: if you going at the max Mach speed and your gotta go through a charge block you can actually go through it because king ghost is a little slow to activate it so yea here ya go
Pizzascare should have had Gustavo and brick in it, maybe with their own version of the ghost or knight transformation.
your channel seems awesome tbh..imma sub!
Thank you so much friend! I love to deliver variety in content so I hope you enjoy what I deliver!
