Peppino Spaghetti, commonly referred to as simply Peppino, is the protagonist of the platforming game Pizza Tower. He appears as an Assist in Fraymakers.

Origin[]

Peppino Spaghetti is a slightly overweight and highly deranged Italian pizza chef and the owner of the failing restaurant Peppino's Pizza. One day, Peppino is visited by an evil living pizza known as Pizzaface who threatens to destroy his pizzeria. In order stop him, he must ascend and destroy the Pizza Tower owned by Pizzaface, which is inhabited by a variety of strange creatures made of Italian foods. Along the way, several inhabitants of the tower work to put a stop to Peppino's quest. Peppino is also joined by fellow pizzaman Gustavo and his pet rat Brick, who occasionally help him out in levels.

Being inspired by the Wario Land series of games and despite his weak appearance, Peppino has a multitude of abilities he uses throughout his journey. Mainly, he can dash and roll at powerful speeds, allowing him to build up momentum and even break through metal blocks. He can also grab and suplex enemies, run up walls, body slam into the ground, and jump high into the air. Peppino can undergo embarrassing transformations that serve either to hinder progress or help solve puzzles, which include shapeshifting, such as into a ball or ghost, or picking up an object or character that changes how he controls, such as a missile or Mort, the protagonist of the game Mort the Chicken.

Peppino is one of the Assist characters in Fraymakers, and he is one of the twenty Assists available at the launch of its Early Access release. When called upon, he runs forward and, upon contact with an opponent, grabs them and follows up with a giant upward punch. This deals 12 damage and weak upward knockback, allowing the summoner to set up combos and creating stage control. Additionally, Peppino falls when airborne and continues falling after grabbing an opponent, which also makes him useful for edgeguarding low opponents.

It takes 85 damage to fully charge Peppino.

In-game description[]

Rushes forward, grabbing the first foe he contacts and throwing them upward. This can be perfect for opening up overly defensive opponents!
