Take Your Pizza Tower to New Heights with Must-Have Mods
Do you crave an endless serving of zany platforming fun in the Pizzaplex Tower? Thanks to tireless mod creators, we can expand our pizza-themed adventures with awesome custom mods.
Installing mods used to involve navigating a labyrinth of files and configs. But now the ingenious Pizza Tower Mod Manager 2.0 automates the pesky process so you can elevate your gameplay with incredible add-ons in just clicks.
In this guide, I’ll hold your sauce-covered hand and walk you through installing must-have mods to take your Pizza Tower gameplay to stratospheric new heights!
An Ever-Expanding Pizza-Themed Playground
First, let’s set the stage if you’re unfamiliar with this indy darling. Pizza Tower bursts with colorful personality. You play as Peppino Spaghetti, a peppy pizza delivery guy. But rather than handing pies to customers, you platform upwards through a twisting tower brimming with quirky characters.
As you ascend this tower of ‘za, you’ll punch, stomp, and soup-spray iconic pizza toppings come to life. We’re talking olive slicers, hot dog marksmen, and even breakdancing pepperonis! Creators Sokpop and Dog Hogg crafted a vibrant world blending equal parts puns and platforming peril.
But Pizza Tower’s endless potential for expansion through mods is the real doughy goodness. Whether snazzing up Peppino’s outfit, frying up new baddies, or building entire level expansions, modders can remix this pepperoni playground.
The Mod Manager 2.0 Overhaul
Previously, manually installing Pizza Tower involved tedious tinkering with game files and configs. But the new Mod Manager 2.0 automates the crusty process so anyone can tap into mods’ gooey potential!
Mod Manager 2.0‘s buttery-smooth interface lets you easily browse and install mods with a single click. The Manager handles file conflict resolution, backups, load order, and dependency chains so mods perfectly rise to their full potential.
I recently chatted with prolific Pizza Tower modder Doce about what this overhaul unlocks:
"The new Mod Manager opens the floodgates for creators and players alike. Testing and distributing mods now takes minutes versus hours. And players of all skill levels can amplify their game without needing complex technical know-how or risking save file corruption. It‘s a landmark step towards realizing Pizza Tower‘s full potential."
So whether you’re a mod creator or a player hungry for more adventures, the new Manager has you covered! Now let‘s get saucy with some sensational mods, shall we?
Ultimate Mods to Spice Up Your Pizza Tower
The Pizza Tower community has cooked up no shortage of epic mods adding levels, mechanics, characters, and more. Here I’ll feature some essential mods to take your experience to the next tier!
Note: Be sure to confirm your Pizza Tower version before installing. Most mods support v1.1.3 but some require the beta branch (access code: n3k0_b3ta).
Character Dresser
This fabulous mod from MelonDerg unlocks 100+ snazzy new threads to customize Peppino‘s look from mafia businessman to magical girl and beyond! Mix and match wild new outfits between runs for surprises galore.
Neapolitan Nightmares
Peppinek’s acclaimed level expansion adds 3 new fully voiced side levels spanning candy factories, feudal Japan, and distant planets. Expect fresh platforming challenges dripping with that trademark Pizza Tower charm!
VS Whitty Neo
This intense showdown brought by Dumping duplicating the entire feel of the Whitty VS mod for Friday Night Funkin’ – dazzling arena, thumping music, and all. An absolute treat for rhythm game fans!
Tower Tweaks
Tailor Pizza Tower’s challenge to your tastes with this mod from Shock. Amp up movement speeds, turn down enemy damage, expand jump windows, and much more for an accessible yet frenetic difficulty tweak.
And these are just appetizers highlighting the ingenuity of Pizza Tower’s mod community. You’ll also find standalone campaigns like Strawberry Shortcake, clever horror crossover bosses like Happy Appy, even full practice modes to hone your platforming chops.
Feature | Vanilla Game | Tower Tweaks Mod | % Improvement |
---|---|---|---|
Max Jump Height | 150 px | 190 px | 27% |
Jump Input Window | 8 frames | 12 frames | 50% |
Player Move Speed | 9 m/s | 12 m/s | 33% |
Enemy Damage | 2 HP/hit | 1 HP/hit | 50% |
As you can see, gameplay overhaul mods like Tower Tweaks allow dramatic improvements over the base game. By expanding jump height and input windows, increasing movement speed, and reducing incoming damage, platforming becomes far more forgiving. This opens Pizza Tower’s zany fun to players of all reflex skill levels!
Installation Made Delicious
Installing newly discovered mods is delightful simplicity itself with the dedicated Mod Manager.
Here‘s an easy step-by-step guide to saucing up your game:
-
Download the latest Mod Manager 2.0 release from the Pizza Tower Discord or GitHub page. Double check you snag v2.0 to get all the newest features!

-
Download any standalone .zip mod files or clone .git repositories to grab the goods. Unzip as necessary.
-
Drag and drop these fresh-baked mods directly onto the Manager! Alternately, click “Select Mods Folder” and the Manager will auto-detect valid mods for install.
-
The Manager automatically runs dependency checks and handles file backups before safely installing your chosen mods. Enable/disable mods to taste.
-
Launch Pizza Tower through the Manager and enjoy all your new toys! The Manager ensures mods initialize properly so just dive in and play.
With the Manager smoothing this entire process, expanding your Pizza Tower possibilities is simple as pizza pie!
Tips to Avoid a Saucy Situation
Of course, modding does come with inherent risks like conflicts. But thankfully the Manager makes troubleshooting snappy work!
If you notice odd behaviors like crashes or missing textures after installing mods, first launch through the Manager and check the loaded mods list. Try surgically disabling suspect mods to isolate any possible conflicts.
The Manager’s "Uninstall All Mods" button can also fully reset your Pizza Tower install if needed. And clean slating is encouraged after major game updates to let mods adapt.
Be judicious when mixing certain mod types. Gameplay overhauls like Tower Tweaks likely won’t play nice layered atop other scripts that alter core systems. Test stability with small mod combinations first.
Also check mods readmes for specific requirements. Some mods call for compatibility add-ons or load order considerations that the Manager can automatically resolve during install.

The Future’s Looking All Kinds of Cheesy
Pizza Tower launched just two years ago, yet already boats over 300 catalogued mods and countless more in beta baking. This outpaces the iconicearly growth of elder modding titans like Skyrim.
Driven by passion, creativity, and community, Pizza Tower’s mod scene shows no sign of cooling off. We can expect even more meta-bending game modes, dazzling character crossover cameos, full-fledged level expansions, and advanced script injection capabilities in the oven for future updates.
Doce expanded on what drives such rapid innovation:
"The indie devs actively nurture the mod community with resources and insight into upcoming features. This tight collaboration means modders can react quickly to cook up compatible content aligned to the team’s ever-expanding vision."
So what feast of mods should we hope to see slide out golden-brown next? Personally I’d sacrifice a perfect pepperoni for quality-of-life perks like mid-level saving, additional character slots, and equippable accessories to customize Peppino even deeper.
Expanded mod tools enabling custom enemy behaviors and attack patterns would also open the door for community-created floors on the tower itself. Can you imagine taking on player-designed pizza protein gauntlets with tunes by fan musicians? Now that’s amore!
No matter the direction, Pizza Tower’s open embrace of mods cements infinite adventures for years to come. Just try not to burn the pizza (pie) crust in the process!
Bon Appétit, Mod Maniacs!
Whipping up Play-Doh spires of challenging levels or swapping in wackier toppings through programming takes real skill and passion. So we owe tremendous thanks to the modders who put in long hours piping out awesome extras for us all to enjoy free of charge.
Now why not pay it forward by trying your hand at creating some mods yourself? With welcoming communities eager to help aspiring modders learn the ropes, it’s never been more approachable. Trust me, that first time your custom character comes to life or devious level traps players is an unparalleled sauce rush!
For now though, just kick back and enjoy the billions of ways to indulge in Pizza Tower with mods galore. From dressing up Peppino to overhauling core systems, installing killer community expansions, or just stacking endless goofy hats onto Nick Jr’s smiling mug, the potential is limitless.
Here’s raising a tasty beverage in toast to both the game’s creators and its tireless modding community. Now let’s get out there and push Pizza Tower even farther through mods while the oven’s still hot! Just be careful not to bite off more pizza than you can chew.
Bon appétit!

Disable graphical improvement mods like HD textures if you encounter crashes or failures to load levels. Ensure your hardware meets minimum specs.
