Pizza Tower Secret Build

Back in 2018 I was a developer for Pizza Tower. One late night in July I was sent a build, the build was called the "Secret Build. Of course I thought it was talking about the 6 secrets in each level (this was before there was 3). I downloaded the file, it was almost 1 GB. I opened the file and inside were three things, Settings, PizzaTower and SaveData. I opened the PizzaTower file. The game started, a screen popped up stating that "This is a very EARLY TEST BUILD" and some other stuff such as controls.

I spawned in a room with purple and black floors and purple bricks in the back. I saw Peppino's face in the corner just like the one that they had sent me the day before. But Peppino looked weird, instead of his usual panicked look he was expressionless and pale. I looked at the Peppino you control and he had a gray outfit, "They must have not liked white on him" I mumbled. I then noticed the music wasn't the same cheery Italian pizza theme, it was a low volume Spider-Man 2 Game Pizza Theme.

I went through the room jumping over metal blocks and breaking through doors. As I ran Peppino's face in the corner became more and more distorted and the screen got blacker and blacker. I stopped running and the black faded and so did the distorted Peppino face. Though, I saw something in a hole in the wall, it looked like Pizzaface. I brushed past it and kept running until I reached the metal blocks, jumped through them and ended up in a large room with a background with purple pillars and statues of Peppino. I ran through the place until I found a door in the middle which I remembered as the "Pizza Room" which was a room with a wavy pizza as the background. It was the same except the Toppin found in there was nowhere to be found. I searched every corner of the room and came out with nothing.

A bit later I grabbed the sword in the stone and went through the tutorial room. Mid-way through I ran through a wall and got sucked up by an eye with pinkish-purple eyelids. I was very confused. In the room there was a wavy backdrop of strange things and the floor also looked like this. I figured out this was a platforming challenge. After a while I went through another eye and left.

When I returned to the level there was a straight black background with the Moon. The music was gone, the only sounds left were Peppino's sound effects. I thought "Is this supposed to happen?". I left the tutorial and found there were 0 enemies, Toppins or even anything to make points. I was walking through the level when suddenenly text popped up where Peppino's head would be, it said in red "DON'T MAKE A SOUND". I immediately froze in fear and stood still. Fully still. Then I heard footsteps. Onscreen walked a strange Toppin. It was a fully gray mushrooom. It looked at the screen and.....nothing. The screen was fully black, I was shaking and then Boom!. My PC shut off still playing footsteps on the loop.

I got it back on after a while. Text popped up stating "IT'S RUNNING TIME" There was a black timer in the botttom of the screen "2:30 LEFT" it said. I started sprinting as fast as I could.

After a long time running, I was almost at the door. Then, I ran past the now empty hole in the wall and looked behind Peppino only to see PizzaFace, fully gray, going way faster than me. He caught me and an animation played of Peppino falling on the ground and in the background there was large text stating "BEHIND YOU".
