Old Graphic Designs

This is a sub-page of Pizza Tower/Unused Graphics.

Lots of things throughout Pizza Tower's development got new designs to either fit more in-line with the game's overall artstyle or to be more consistent in design. There's a whole lot to uncover, from shotguns and breakable blocks to Captain Bomb Goblin and the Toppins!

Captain Bomb#

Captain Goblin was originally called Captain Bomb and had a more humanoid design. The only sprites created for him consist of the same idle animation badly rotated and edited. He was probably replaced as his sprites would've obstructed the player's view too greatly. These sprites can be seen in the Rework Build

spr_shroomcollect
spr_cheesecollect
spr_tomatocollect
spr_sausagecollect
spr_pineapplecollect

Old versions of the collectable toppings the player finds throughout every level. These were introduced in the Early Test Build and survived all the way until the April 2021 build, where the designs of the toppings were replaced to their modern day counterparts.

PTpizzacollect.gif PTpizzacollect2.gif PTpizzacollect3.gif

spr_pizzacollect1
spr_pizzacollect2

Before the big topping collectables were big pizza toppings, they were pizzas instead, and like the old smaller toppings, these made it all the way until the April 2021 build.

PToldclock.gif PTtimeattackclock.gif

spr_clockcollectible1
spr_clockcollectible2

No

Old versions of the clock collectable. Used in the first version of the Boss build to activate Time Attack mode, while the second variant was last used in the Rework build for an object called obj_timecollect.

spr_fishcollect
spr_eggcollect
spr_shrimpcollect

No

In the April 2021 build, new collectables appeared during Pizza Time, those being shrimp, fish, eggs, bacon (spr_baconcollect) and bananas (spr_baconcollect). The bacon and banana collectables were reused for The Pig City's bacon room and Crust Cove's banana crates respectively, however the rest (the three shown here) go unused.

More leftover toppins are present in the final release from various points in development: Snick's (onion) rings, Noise's candy from Hardoween, Xmas variants and last but not least, the world famous Eggplant.

Cow#

Bomb#

Metal Block#

One-Way Block#

An old design of the one-way block that was introduced in the Western build.

Target Block#

An old version of the Target Block with a more realistic wooden design, as used in Pre-Eggplant builds, where it was replaced in said build.

An old version of the blocks the player finds in Golf, and were known as "Nerd Blocks". This was introduced in the GOLF April Fool's build and replaced in the Octobe22 build.

Cheese Block#

PToldcheeseblock.gif PToldcheeseblockreform.gif

The old variants of the cheese blocks found in Ancient Cheese, which would later be replaced in the April 2021 build.

Doors#

Wooden Door#

Various old door designs are left in the game, and some were replaced in the final game. Less is more might just be this game's motto, because the door designs were changed to be the same generic design, although each floor has a different door design of its own.

Other#

Solid#

PizzaTower-BlueBlock.png PizzaTower-PurpleBlock.png

The old sprites for obj_solid. The blue solid was used from the Early Test Build up until first two Blue Block Land build revisions, while the purple solid was used in the third revision and every other build up until Eggplant, where the design was changed to a pink transparent square.

Key Sign#

An old version of the key sign.
