Mario, check. Sonic, check. What's next? Beating Zelda as a Peppino?

What's even more insane is that Sonic Robo Blast 2 itself...is a DOOM mod. It's not just a Sonic game. It's a mod for classic DOOM, that turns it into a Sonic game, that people then modded the hell out of. That's why there are 2D sprites in a 3D-looking world.

imagine the fear in metals eyes when he watches the middle age Italian man disappear as soon as the race starts.

In general, SRB2 is a much more slower Sonic game than one would initially expect. So of course, Peppino was going to struggle. He's much more at home with a lot of custom levels since they're much more open, allowing him to gain and keep speed much more consistently.

Peppino must be constrained to snow sledding on oil-slicked surfaces because if he ever moved too fast, he'd reverse time and accelerate to an entirely new dimension. This mod was meant to show us the sheer terror of his reign if unchecked. In other words, this was a ton of fun to watch :D

Love the part where he bumbled around that factory-maze-thingy that I don't think is supposed to be a maze. But I wouldn't know, I have the sense of direction and memory of a Goldfish.

Whenever you say “Peppino generated Mach” I imagine it as Peppino chugging a bottle of NOS from the Fast and Furious franchise.

Peppino's abilities just makes him a Sonic 2

Some things to note if you feel like doing more SRB2: 1. While I personally like 2D Sprites in a 3D environment, there's a setting to turn on 3D Models, although you need to download them separately for most mod characters. 2. There's a setting to flip the camera with your character when you go upside down. 3. There are a SHITLOAD of mod characters, including, addition to most Sonic characters and a bunch of surprisingly fun OCs, a lot of crossover characters. Off the top of my head there is Mario and Luigi with power ups and sprites based on the RPGs Mario based on Mario 64 (his acceleration is too high for my taste but still) Pretty sure there's an NES Mario with basically no special abilities Bowser Yoshi including eggs Kirby including copy abilities. Meta Knight The main trio of Deltarune, with dialogue Samus with support for both first and third person, with dialogue and power ups and a couple of custom bosses. Duke Nukem and Tails' head on Doom Guy's body Plague Knight from Shovel Knight And also a giant mod that turns the game into a Persona 3 clone with Sonic characters. It's kind of crazy.

This version of Peppino is SOOOO much worse than normal Peppino. Peppino can’t even normally game over in a non-boss fight stage. And he was STILL better than Sonic. In a Sonic game. I just wish this guy was a little more experienced with Peppino’s kit in this game.

I feel like Peppino is the ultimate unstoppable force and would gladly pile-drive physics itself if he had to.

Peppino is in fact a god, tragically however, sonic has killed gods

I love how you proceeded to beat Right Side Egg Rock 2, then have the balls to do the Left side right afterwards.

Yeah yeah we get it. Now do Peppino + Doom

Truly, peppino is the great bambino

3:18 the head actually came from early pizza tower builds

If I remember correctly this mod was probably made before the release of the game. it’s the reason peppino controls so awkwardly.

Now we wait for "can you beat Fear and Hunger as Peppino Spaghetti "

I have drawn a newer conclusion: if pepino was meant to be mortal, can humans run at Mach 3?

As Someone who used to make SRB2 Mods, I consider this an absolute win.

Conclusion: Peppino is so much faster than Sonic

If you add a mod titled Pizza Time SpiceRunners, it adds a pizza time escape sequence specifically for this variant of peppino.

You can alter the settings to fix depth of field, make the camera flip when going upside down so you seem right side up in Black Egg zone, and change the camera from automatic to manual if needed.

I was somehow not expecting the tear joke, awesome content man.

Loved the video! Thanks Skooch.

The disappointment on my face when he could’ve played as The(odore) Noise under Peppino, oh I got pissed.

great video man, keep it up :)

hi, one of the devs here, thanks for playing beta 1 of v2, im the guy whos mapping for it

NOW THIS ISNT A PIZZA TOWER VID WITHOUT THE JONH PILLAR.

I feel like you're avoiding the main question at hand here... Can Pepino Spaghetti run on DOOM?

Peppino is basically what adrenaline means.

I loved the original! I’m so happy you made a (kinda) sequel

3:05 I see that hat n stache on the bottom! Dont hide the noise from me baby!

Putting hydrocity music in the background while playing deep sea zone is perfect

3:18 Fun fact: The Peppino head in the bottom is based of the Pizza Tower Beta before the iconic tv in the upper right

You turning left at Egg Rock 2’s end and almost doing the whole level AGAIN made me burst into hysterics.

We bumble around this factory maze thingy that i dont think is supposed to be a maze but i have the sense of direction of a goldfish had me laughing so hard

Sonic... ironically enough... Was not made with Speed on the mind, and it was made for Precision and patience... wich is not really the way Sonic~~ I mean, Peppino wants to play.

I love how even with this specific moveset's jank, there were still tons of Peppino Skips, hell, i think there were more skips here than in Mario64!

I fraked out what I saw Robo Blast 2! I adore that game and it's modding scene

10:07 - When Peppino is eating better than Sonic

22:00 That was just precious lol

Oh I saw this on stream and I am so ready to watch this. Peppino the Italian Formula 1 here we go

The most unrealistic part was that peppino died

The fact that he replays the final level without knowing is hilarious

Finally a epic montage without music.

Fighting eggman in the first zone as peppino was so fun, because i just mach ran around him at terrifying speeds and launched myself like a bullet at him, eggman never stood a chance

Watching him die in that castle fight over and over was just as enjoyable to watch here as it was live.

The amount of rage I felt when you went any wrong way in this game was higher then the homeless man in the back alley

Welcome back you GOAT 🙏🏽

I've not tried the Peppino mod for this game yet. There's a lot of cool character mods for this game, though I'm partial to the one that adds Mario and Luigi. The power-ups are cool, though mostly I like it because of their movement. Basically every movement option they have in the 3D games is present, and combining them is a ton of fun.

Slowly chants "Kirby Kirby Kirby"

I am a simple man. I see Sonic Robo Blast 2, I watch.

3:04 Now play it all again, but as the noise, I see him down there

I cant wait for Beating Garten of Banban as Peppino Spaghetti

get that version of Peppino

I would love to see beating a hat in time as peppino

And thats how we know that the guy in front of you has never played pizza tower in his life: he doesnt know about the "grab boost" - a move that is litteraly explained in the tutorial.

Wait I'm still stuck on the part that Peppino can run so fast and hes such a freaking CHAD, that he can run on literal lava without taking any damage😂

If you're thinking that Peppino being 2D is strange, wait till you find out every sprite is 2D. That is because SRB2 isn't a completely original game. It's a mod - a mod of DOOM to be precise. It's why spaces are 3D and sprites are 2D. This sometimes causes characters to slip and slide off the map.

My theory about why Peppino performed so bad in Sonic game is that Peppino works only in games designed to be played by Italians

Ok now complete Pizza Tower as Mario and Sonic

Move over shadow Peppino is the ultimate lifeform

Conclusion:Peppino is made for every game

Excellent video Skooch! Enjoyed it lots. Now, I have an idea for a video for you to go over a game I found. It is a Roguelite City Builder called Against the Storm. Since you are a Roguelite and Rogue-like master I was wondering if you would give it a shot

8:30 dude, this is the most accurate recreation of peppino's moveset ever done. this is normal pizza tower shit and if you really want to go fast just do grab + roll, its even something done in normal pizza tower and the inputs are just exactly copied over to SRB2's LUA and i find that really impressive. ive beaten this game as both the noise and peppino and i must say it was way easier than doing it as sonic. its either because i'm lifeless or because you might be playing a bit worse than what was expected. most likely the case is me being lifeless because i am. oh, and the discord server of this mod actually has a version with theodore noise. go check that out.

Sonic stages are meant as a linear challenges that are done in one way, that do themselves when you start to go fast, while Peppino's Movement relies on broad design to get speed, and do challenges in a variety of ways. While playing as Peppino, you want to have that control. His movements work in a whole variety of situations and designs. The control Sonic lacks in his games. Sonic has to have levels built around him, and only him. The Weakness the hedgehog, is the downfall of the Italian.

Fun fact, you can change the setting that inverts the Camera when inverting gravity

Sonic stages are so big, because Sonic is so fast. Otherwise, the levels would be over very quickly.

Um there's a setting to flip the camera when you switch gravity so you can always see better

Les go pepino

Yes peppinos return

6:25 I mean, most characters in SRB2 are 2D by default, just with 8 directions of sprite sets to give the illusion of 3D

Peppino is the love child of sonic and wario, this is probably the closest we’ll get to Peppino’s canon parents.

I wonder if it's possible to apply that Peppino mod for Mario 64, to the Mario 64 mod for that other Sonic game

There is a setting to flip the camera with the gravity so it's less painful. Would advise people use it

I feel like Peppino is the Gogeta of Mario and Sonic.

I'm pretty sure every Peppino Skip in this video is something that Sonic can do in the vanilla game, lmao

An interesting fact in this game is that there's an option that makes a camera change when the gravity changes

It’s not just pepino, this castle egg man’s fight was impossible my first time as sonic, but now it’s not cause I’m crazy like that 🎉

speaking of flying to close to the sun, I’m curious… how would Peppino work in a Crash Bandicoot game?

There should be a button combination similar to the dash + down combination in pizza tower that allows you to mach run instantly.

19:15 nope, that's actually a bug

20:27 just so people know, that toad’s factory remix is by Qumu

22:03 don't worry man, happened to me on my first playthrough too.

PEPPINO HAS RETURNED

give peppino a break, all he wanted to do is have a nice pizza place

Amazing

The head of Peppino is a scrapped hud of pizza tower

SRB2 has been around for MUCH longer than 2000 lol

There's an setting where your camera would also flip with the inverted gravity in egg rock zone

Peppino Skip trademark Never disappoints

So uhhh... in regards to certain sections being harder for Peppino, I have a suggestion. In each Zone, there are Sonic/Tails sections, which are built with speed and height in mind, and Knuckles sections, which account for Knuckles' lower jump and wall climb. Maybe learn where those sections are?

The very first nanosecond i saw srb2 i immediately thought of nick's peppino Im a great guesser apparently

Sonic Robo Blast 2 is just one of those games that absolutely hates its players. It hurts but it gets better with modding.

Did you know that there is another Peppino mod in the works?

Cant wait until he beats doom as peppino

The head on the peppino mod was made by mcpig for a old hud

Lightwork for Peppino Spaghetti 🔥🔥🔥

SRB1 was done in 1998 and SRB2 was in Development in 1998
