Transformation Blocks#
At one point in time where there was more apparent Wario Land influence on the game, using blocks that can only be destroyed with a specific transformation were the norm. Just about all of these blocks were used up until the game was reworked to focus on much speedier gameplay in the latter half of 2021, being replaced by the semi-iconic Stupid Rats.
obj_bombblock#

Bomb blocks would've been destroyed by... bombs. These blocks were first seen in the Halloween Demo and in The Ancient Cheese, where if the player ran into the block with a bomb in their hands, it would be destroyed, and could also be destroyed when in contact with obj_bombexplosion or obj_dynamiteexplosion, making it undestroyable with other explosion-related objects.
obj_barrelblock#
This barrel block would've been destroyed while the player was in the barrel transformation, but no longer works in the final game, due to changes in the transformation.
obj_cheeseballblock#
A block that could have only been destroyed by rolling into it while in the Cheese Ball transformation.
obj_enemyblock#
This block could only be destroyed by throwing an enemy at it, and suprisingly still functions in-game. Unlike the rest of the blocks showcased here, this one wasn't replaced.
obj_secretdestroyable#
A version of the big breakable block that was going to appear in the secret rooms. Notably, it doesn't use the final game's brickwork texture seen on other breakable blocks, and instead uses the cracked stone-like texture seen in older builds. This likely means it was cut before July 2021, when the breakable blocks were resprited.
obj_iceblock#
A block made out ice that, if touched, would move them forward. Ice blocks do exist in the final game, notably in the level Refrigerator-Refrigerador-Freezerator, however they look and behave differently compared to this unused object.
The biggest change between the two is the fact that the unused object has some slip to it, while the final object doesn't. It's safe to say that players wouldn't let such annoying mechanics slide in a game as fast as Pizza Tower, as it can be gleamed from the change. A slope variant of said ice block also exists.
obj_tomatoblock#
A tomato-like block that would bounce the player upwards if touched. This was used in early versions of Oh Shit and in the scrapped Space Pinball level.
obj_glassblock#
A glass barrier that would have protected the Treasure. This was first seen in the Early Test Build demo, and likely got cut due to how redundant it would be to have two layers of protection for the Treasure (having to unlock the Treasure Door, and then breaking this glass barrier).
obj_gustavodestroyable#
A block with a placeholder sprite that could only be destroyed by Gustavo and Brick. It was only used in Gnome Forest in the Rework build, and no longer works due to being meant for a scrapped biting/eating move.
Mach 3 Block#

Some pretty creepy blocks that has the faces of Peppino, The Noise, The Vigilante, and a fusion of Gustavo and Brick. These blocks cannot be destroyed, and can only be passed through if the player goes in the speed of either Mach 3 or 4 with the corresponding character that matches the block. Do note that the sprites of these blocks do not show up in the game for some reason.
The block sprites themselves were briefly used as replacements for the purple collision block sprites used for a majority of the game's development, before McPig finally settled on using pink transparent squares instead.
Mach 4 Block#
A block that is only breakable when the player goes at the speed of Mach 4 and Mach 4 only. An interesting quirk of it is that once broken, it shows the secret September 2021 block death sprite. This was never used in the game, seeing as how infuriating it could've been to be forced to build up a lot of speed just to get on by with the level.
Space Blocks#
obj_bigspaceblock and obj_smallspaceblock were both blocks found in the September 2021 Rework build. However, unlike the usual breakable blocks the player sees in the final game, these blocks act like enemies, where they get launched away, but respawn shortly after being broken by the player. They were removed out of the final game but still exist in the files, as with everything else.
obj_metalblockescape#
In earlier builds, metal blocks were supposed to respawn with a purple coat of paint on them during the escape sequences. However, this object was scrapped later on, and since then, only the sprite of the Pizza Time metal block debris remain.
obj_knightplatform#
A semi-solid platform that could only be entered from the bottom. This was used in the Rework's hub world, specifically in the room hub_medievallobby. Upon completing Pizzascape, the platform would lower onto the ground below it. This could've been used for Pizzascape as a decorative platform.
obj_mrstickblock#
A block used in the old hub world. This block is just another version of the solid blocks in the game's files, which even uses the exact same sprite, and could've been destroyed by paying up to Mr. Stick.
obj_fightballblock#
A block that could've been broken by having two players go into the fightball dash state. This block uses the same sprite as the old secret block.
