I was expecting this for a long time XD
I almost forgot Fake Pep is much taller than them, lol.
they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!
ARE YOU READY?!
I made this simple lock screen wallpaper for my phone. You can use it if you want. The left pic is the example of how it looks like on my phone.
And before anyone asking, yes, I am Indonesian, lol.
Sometimes I am in a situation when I keep doubting and being hard to myself for not getting better at anything.
Don't worry, Pep, you're not the only one...
hiiiii here's some angst before pizza tower's birthday raahh👹
i was kinda inspired by yamaha by delta spirit and cry by cigarettes after sex songs when making this-
more under this post 👇
enjoy!
This gives me an idea for a short comic that I was planning about...
Here's what I think the Pizza Tower cast thinks of Maurice Spaghetti...
Peppino: The poor guy can't stand Maurice. He's one of the biggest reasons Peppino doesn't come home for Christmas anymore. After putting up with his abuse for years, Peppino is just... tired of Maurice. He's tired of arguing. He just says, "I know," to every horrible thing his brother says about him. And the worst part is, Maurice seems to invite himself into Peppino's life whenever he least expects or wants it. This is because Maurice is such an asshole he literally has no friends and relies on Peppino for company.
Gustavo: He also can't stand Maurice. He HATES him, actually. Gustavo really cares about Peppino, so the fact his own brother treats him like shit infuriates him. He has threatened to kill Maurice before (remember Gustavo's catchphrase?), so Maurice is (rightfully) afraid of Gustavo.
Brick: Our rat buddy can smell a bad egg a mile away. He does NOT like Maurice and will hiss at him whenever he appears. Maurice claims that Brick is "the second-biggest rat [he's] ever seen", so he's... a little unnerved by the sight of him.
Mr. Stick: He hasn't met Maurice yet, but I guarantee you if he DID, he'd try to scam him out of a lot of money and would likely succeed. Cue Maurice crashing with Peppino until he can get his house back. Peppino is miserable and not amused by any of this.
Pepperman: Met Maurice during filming of The Noise's "Swap Mode" movie. Pepperman thinks Maurice is really unpleasant to deal with due to his negative attitude and close-minded outlook. Even a pseudo-intellectual like Pepperman runs circles around Maurice intellectually, which the pepper is happy to do, much to Maurice's frustration.
The Vigilante: Met Maurice during filming of The Noise's "Swap Mode" movie. He does NOT like him. He actually feels bad for Peppino; it must truly suck to have such an immoral piece of cow dung for a family member. Apparently the guy conned his own granny out of thousands of dollars! The Vigilante keeps a very close eye on Maurice the whole time they're around each other. Maurice feels his sins crawling on his back the whole time.
The Noise: He's generally neutral towards Maurice. He thinks all the mean things Maurice says about Peppino are funny. It's when Maurice starts spouting racist rhetoric he's like, "DUDE" and rendered completely speechless because... well, he's never heard Peppino talk like that, so where'd his fucking brother get it from!? Anyway... The Noise only hangs around Maurice if he needs him for something, like annoying Peppino. Maurice has tried befriending The Noise, inviting him to hang out, but The Noise isn't interested in being friends with a racist prick. He does, however, want to remain on Maurice's good side in case he needs him, so he just makes up excuses about being too busy.
Noisette: Noisette is not the kind of person who hates people easily. She tries to see the good in everyone. However, she sees no good in Maurice. She hates him, openly, and without regret. She hates the mean things he says about Peppino. All the bigoted, ignorant blather he spews. How he once assaulted an innocent laundromat worker and called her a bitch just because she told him he couldn't pay to do laundry using nickels. Noisette growls like a rabid dog whenever Maurice is around. Maurice is (rightfully) terrified of Noisette...
Fake Peppino: Our favorite frog man met Maurice during filming The Noise's "Swap Mode" movie... he doesn't like him at all. Maurice is loud, mean, and generally unpleasant. When they were filming Swap Mode's Fake Peppino boss fight, Fake Peppino actually tried to kill Maurice. The Noise had to step in and scare Fake Peppino off. Fake Peppino had to pretend he was simply getting a little too into his role instead of trying to actively hunt down Maurice. Playing dumb. Playing pretend... and sneaking a hiss or growl in Maurice's direction when no one else is looking. Maurice is absolutely terrified.
Pizzahead: Met Maurice during the "Swap Mode" movie. Holy mozzarella sticks, this schmuck is Peppino's brother!? And he... bullies Peppino? WHAT THE FUCK, THAT'S HIS JOB!! Pizzahead acts polite and even friendly towards Maurice at first, but as soon as they're alone together, he very calmly threatens Maurice's life, telling him to leave Peppino alone or else, all with a big, unnerving smile on his face. Maurice practically pisses himself in fear as he's forced to agree... for now...
Pillar John: Met Maurice during filming of "Swap Mode". Decided he absolutely did not like him, judging him for every hateful word that came out of his mouth. Fortunately, Maurice is so terrified of Pillar John's sheer size and strength, he doesn't pull his usual bullshit with the big guy.
Gerome: Met Maurice during filming of "Swap Mode". Gerome doesn't like Maurice at all, but he's not too bothered by his presence. In fact, he completely manages to ignore him. Maurice is insulted, but he's not about to talk shit about Pillar John's brother...
The Pizza Massacre one is genius.
For the Noise, that outfit looks kinda familiar...
Hey hey, I made more costumes, this time for the Noise (mostly)! These were a ton of fun to make, I've gained a huge appreciation for the work done on the Noise's sprites, they're so clean and fluid while matching the Noise's energy. As can be seen, I also did costumes based on the bosses! A lot of people have wanted me to do boss costumes ever since I made the original Peppino costumes, so I went ahead and made some for both him and the Noise! If you wanna know more about all these costumes, there's a new video on my YouTube channel talking about them! Remember, my channel is named Spectern! That's all, have a great day everyone!
Welp, it has been one year, huh? Kinda shame because I only learned about this game like two months later, even I didn't know it has gone through a really long development! It was astonishing that I found a game that's suitable with the chaotic side of me, lol.
Anyway, I drew this like around early April, the first fan art in fact! I used black and white color scheme for this. During that time I somehow still found some difficulty to draw them, but yeah, first try. It's kinda rough, but I am satisfied with the result.
(I forgot Fake Pep and Pizzahead are the walking spoiler bosses, lol)
Not gonna lie, all those drafts of potential animated series for this game are really good. Especially this one, my personal favorite.
Digging into Peppino’s past
Couldn’t get over a certain excerpt of one of the hypothetical pizza tower episodes written by ptg
The idea was developed a long time ago so the concept prob have changed a lot but I still dig this one
Why Pizzahead got a cake there, lol.
what the h*ck get out of hiz houze!!
I like how the art style of this game are inspired from Courage the Cowardly Dog, so I decided to redraw it, but with Peppino in Pizzascare.
I heard that level is pretty difficult, so good luck for me, lol.
I somehow find that Spongebob scene is really cool, when Mr Krabs launched himself towards Plankton after he tried to crush him.
And I was like, 'what if I redraw it but with Pizza Tower characters?', so here it is.
Oh, and btw I finally able to get myself the game after I saved some money for almost a year. It's pretty expensive in my country, but hey, I wanted to pay it on a full price since it's an indie game.
I'll continue playing it once I get my monitor working again, because when I was wandering through the hub (after finishing John Gutter and getting all the secret levels and tower treasure, no S or P rank unfortunately since it's the first time of me playing the game), the monitor suddenly went out and I can't turn it back on. The pic above this was taken a day before that happen.
Guess I have to spend another money on getting a new one, lol.
