Pillar John was originally the main antagonist for the indie video game Pizza Tower. He would have used Peppino Spaghetti to gather Toppins in order to gain strength before attempting to destroy him.
Biography[]
An early idea for Pizza Tower was for Pillar John to serve as the main antagonist. In early builds for the game, Peppino would have to feed Pillar John with the Toppins he has collected and John would reward him with access to secret treasures if he is fed all Toppins found in a level. Pillar John would also taunt Peppino if he completed a level with a low score. Upon reaching the final boss, it would have been revealed that Pillar John was the titular Pizza Tower itself and battle Peppino in a fight reminiscent of Rudy the Clown from Wario Land 3. However, Pillar John's role as the antagonist was eventually scrapped in favor of Pizza Face.
Triiva[]
- In the background of the "Staff Only" floor of the Pizza Tower, there is a large gollum covered in cheese that looks like Pillar John. It is speculated that this is a reference of Pillar John's original role as the main antagonist; specifically, the form he takes as the final boss.
