Funny enough, the creator of Pizza Tower made an official Peppino playable character mod for Rivals of Aether.

*peppino checking mail* *envelope stamped with a smash logo* *peppino raises an eyebrow* *peppino opens letter* "Dear Peppino. You are cordially invited to take part in the Super Smash Bros. tournament as one of its many well-respected fighters." *peppino rolls eyes* *peppino turns the card over* "If you accept, you will be treated to an all-expense-paid stay at the fighter's suite for the duration of your participation, and the Smash organization will handle any outstanding debts and financial issues while you are occupied with participation in the tournament. Any earnings from fights are yours to keep." *Peppino's eyes turn to dollar signs.*

They should add an Easter egg where if you wait on the character select screen for 40 minutes with Peppino selected, you get jumpscared and the game closes

Now, THIS is worthy of a P Rank all on its own! Fantastic stuff!

8 player peppino match, first 3 frames you just see all of them opening their mouths. The screams. You'll never forget the screams.

Honestly imagine if Peppino now has only used about 3% of his power but imagine how his Mach speed would be when at full maximum capacity.

I love the idea that the “Let It All Out!” taunt will play indefinitely as long as the button’s held down. Sometimes you just need a good 5 second long scream into the void.

I love how much you manipulated the Peppino model! Usually when people use the Peppino model they understandably keep it within the restrictions of how it looks but you made it look sorta 2D and cartoony.

the fact that he made everything cooking related to the moves is just amazing, also someone needs to put this in a game

Holy, didnt expect someone to make a moveset for peppino And didnt expect it to be this good (as far as im watching)

Peppino would be VERY proud of this moveset! Nice work!

For Peppinos smash attack, he should have done the part in the final boss where Peppino smacks pizzaface a bunch of times, and then slams him into the ground

Fantastic moveset ideas! I really feel like Peppino would fit right in in Smash so I'm glad to see concepts for him. One thing though is I think it would be cool if when you held down the taunt button as Peppino he would pull out a juke box and start break dancing just like in Pizza Tower.

PEPPINO BOUT TO SHOW PEACH THAT GUSTAVO IS WAY BETTER THAN A TOAD COMPLETLY

In the middle of the Smash Bros rogue's gallery, Peppino's just an ordinary middle aged man with an extreme amount of anxiety and desperation, and he's amazing for it.

I love this idea but I think that his down smash should be Peppino picking up the sword and have a small lighting bolt that hits him and make a electric explosion like when he picks it up in the game and the lighting bolt should have a small spike like pikas that leads into the attack. Also his down air should spike like most stall and falls in smash. And finally I think that he should have a p rank purple outfit

Funnily enough, I bought pizza tower a few days before this released, so great timing! I really enjoyed this moveset, especially since rushdown is my preferred play style. Great job!

This is the video that got me into serious moveset design, and I’d personally want to say thank you for making something as beautiful as this. First watched this video a year ago, and I’m finally getting a second rewatch of this masterpiece. I literally can’t think of any ways to improve upon this gameplay wise, it matches the hectic speed of Pizza Tower to a T and I absolutely love it. His weird physique and disjoints, unique mechanic that actually adds something I want in Smash… a straight up command run… it’s all amazing! You rock, dude. Keep up the good work! Seriously!

Fun Fact: McPig (the creator of Pizza Tower) made Peppino as a workshop character in Rivals of Aether.

Greetings. My friend Bowling Dude sent me here to congratulate you on reaching 100,000 views on this video! I can tell you put so much effort into your Smash Bros content and may you continue to grow and become more successful here. Keep up the good work.

As usual, this moveset was soooo good! The mechanic is fantastic and I like the rushdown and absolutely unhinged feel of Peppino (and as I write this comment and see the view count, it seems this moveset has been a little success and that's nice ;) ).

You got me at the part when you said that Mach mode let's him be a turbo character. This guy would be an absolute blast to play. A fight between him and sonic would surely be a sight to see

If I can add as maybe an idea, Mach 3 is unlocked by pressing diagonally down to the left or the right for around maybe half a second, while preforming Mach run level 2, this buffs peppino’s grabs, smash attacks, and special moves, giving them new properties as peppino goes ballistic, and he runs even faster, able to catch up with sonic, however, he loses even more damage on his other attacks, gains quite a bit of knockback, their turnaround is laggy and reverts them back to Mach 2, and while he does have more hits of that armor, it isn’t a lot so he can still be comboed out of it, while damage is non lethal in pizza tower, outside of bosses, you can get comboed, and lose score if you aren’t careful.

Imagine if it were real. That would be so cool tbh.

Best Peppino 3D model I've seen so far

This is so good that I can feel the pizza tower coming inside of me

In my opinion, I think it’d be cool if one of the victory animations rank changes depending on how well you did. I don’t know how it can be implemented, but I think it can in a creative way. Also the taunt of Peppino doing his little breakdance I think should’ve been one of the taunts, with the hand biting being reduced to a idle animation. You can continue the taunt for as long as you can.

Peppino’s up taunt should be his “YEEEEAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUW)” scream that he does at the beginning of boss fights His side taunt should be his “ mama mia 🤌” idle animation, Finally, his down taunt should be his taunt from the game, you know, where he strikes a random pose. (It be cool if he could parry projectiles with his down taunt)

His win song would be the p-rank theme

I usually have a huge gripe with the model used in this video, but it turns out its just because most of the time hes used incorrectly. Some of the renders here look FANTASTIC!

I NEED a mo- "official version" of this

I like how you give each of the moves a name. Nice extra detail

Great video! Also missed opportunity without saying "Peppino cuts his slice" or "Cuts the cheese." Maybe with Gustavo.

It would be funny af if it was a custom animation that would replace pizza face with the giant hand.

I don’t need it… I don’t need it… I DEFINITELY don’t need it… I don’t need it… I DON’T NEED IT… *I N E E D I T!*

I like how Down-B can also be used as a fourth taunt (or the only taunt in Online Mode)

Excellent work Felicia!

"Mel Blanc sampled scream" You saying this actually made me "Funny Man Yells in Medium-High Pitched Tone - Cartoon Trax 2 - The Hollywood Edge"

Great video! (IGNORE THE PART BELOW (why? because i wrote that part before i realized you did a v1 moveset on your patreon lol)) Anyway, could you potentially do a challenger concept for V1 from ULTRAKILL? I feel like it'd be really interesting, plus ULTRAKILL is one of my favorite games.

Now this is quite tge spicy mestball. Your model looked great and I bet you had fun coming up with names for all if his attacks.

Peppino has definitely been my favorite smash moveset character you’ve done by far Just a suggestion, you should do Freddy Fazbear because the 9th anniversary is coming up and the movie releases this year

Peppino feels like he'd be so probable to be in a smash game, but while also feeling like he's never ever gonna step anywhere near smash

If peppino is add I will like to see how the npcs fight against one another

I don't think we've had an indie character this worthy for Smash Bros since Madeline Celeste.

Steve and peppino would be a trio

I would like it if for the smash announcement it would seem like a pizza tower port but then peppino gets the funny letter in his face and then thats when hes announced

We could add Fake Peppino as an echo fighter. the only changes being: A taller hitbox in exchange for more attack range, a few animations different than Peppino's, but act relatively the same, his down special has been changed. He still taunts, but instead of countering, he launches several projectiles that bounce diagonally. his final smash will be changed to the Fake Peppino Tunnel chase sequence. Similar to Mr Game-and-Watch's final smash, where he turns big and charges forward. any opponent caught in his mouth would be KO'd.

It’s funny how anchors away is a popeye reference with the overall cartoony shape of peppinos arm and the anchor tattoo on his arm Kind of liking how the creator for this puts effort in putting these little Easter eggs

I was thinking for a victory animation peppino does the crumbling tower of pizza pose on top of all the smash fighters

We need this

for the beginning it should be PEPPINO full of anxiety and wrath!

25:15 Peppino could do a lot of damage in the area to the other opponents who are watching too close, both in the storm of blows and in the plummet

Love the joke of the final smash name being the lap 2 theme name “The Death that I deservoli” but with the I replaced with you

*WE DID IT! PEPPINO BE THE FIRST TO HIT 100K VIEWS!!!!*

His idle animation should be that he does that animation where he puts his hand forward as in he wants his opponent to slap his hand.

now it's time for the noise to shine

Fun fact: I actually made a remix of the Pizza Tower boss victory theme to be used as a Smash Victory theme for Peppino

I love the rendar for the depiction

I think it’d be hilarious if when you utterly destroy your enemys in a match then the win screen is the p rank

All the names are great

Now this is one hell of the smash bros moveset concept.

I feel like he would be so fun to play as

I personally call the "pepperoni punch" the "Blackout punch" because it hits like a litteral truck

After watching this, anybody is ded in that game while meeting Peppino

Bro is so powerful that he doesn’t even to be on a nintendo console to be in smash

bro that is so cool as a fan of pizza tower myself im subbed btw

Somebody hire this person

While this does seem impossible to put Peppino in smash, Undertale managed to get a place in smash as a Mii costume so there’s probably a good chance for Peppino to get into smash.

it would make sense if peppino was in smash, bc there is a grab attack where peppino could use his grab dash sprites for it

Now I’m imagining how toxic the down special would be in online play. Imagine you fail a recovery and they just start styling on you.

I like to imagine when peppino wins. He does his rank pose depending on how well you did in battle. Let's say you play 5 stock. If you have 5, it's S rank, If you have 4, it's A rank, if it's anything else besides of stock, it will judge you on either max stamina percent, or exposure. But if you beat a battle without taking damage, you can get a very rare P rank victory.

my version: Neutral A: no changes. perfect. Forward Tilt: becomes 3D, runs up to the opponent, grabs them, and his hands become comically large, dealing 20%. this isnt spammable. Up Tilt: Dashes up, grabs the opponent, and depending on their percentage, throws them. They always land on stage to make it fair. Down Tilt: sonics spindash ripoff except he doesnt move and looks like a funging donut. short cooldown and does 2.3%. Dash attack: grabs and small combo, including the greedy checker. 25%. If the dash attack missed, earlier mach mode can happen. Ledge attack: Breakdance, 10% (most of it bc the taunts so good it damages you.) Range is C+. Forward Smash: 4 punches with his giant fist. Great for ledge campers. 35.9 damage. Up Smash: same. perfection. Down Smash: a counter wit same attack. Neutral Air: dash, grab, and spins around with the opponent, slamming down. Forward Air: same thing, except it does less damage since, well, youll see. Up Air: SA2 taunt specifically, boosting the opponent up with 3% damage. This is the reason Forward Air has less damage, an almost unescapable combo unless we talk about Luigi. Back Air: perfection, no changes. Down Air: same thing, but with the Mach Mode on, you can Dive to replace, faster but less damage. Bodyslam: 17% and scaling depending on how high he was. Dive: 10%. Grab: Dashes and grabs with comically large hands, looking at you Forward Tilt. The damage after the grab is same. Up Throw: A simple up throw, but slams on the ground, then tosses up at full speed, above 75% will kill them. Easy to start combos with it. Down throw: HOLY HELL THESE THROWS ARE PERFECT!! Forward Throw: perfection. Back throw: P-erfection! Neutral Special: please stop i need to make ideas and youre making them perfect Side Special: funny slap combo Up Special: perfection, his air moves shine with this. & bodyslam. Down Special: same, but if he misses, he gets damaged 0.1% and looks stupidly sad for a second. Having them hit him while hes sad makes him powered up because you hurt peppino too many times so u go to heggles. All taunts: devs choose which taunt peppino gets, but its all some of the taunts from PT. Victory Theme D: he almost breaks the animation played with how angry he got. Victory Theme C: All he gives is a "wtf was you doin" look and gives a thumbs down. Victory Theme B: claps to himself. Victory Theme A (the start of harder ones.): repeatedly taunting for no reason. Victory Theme S: Super taunting. Victory Theme P: playing all my fellas with the toppins.

me when i play as peppino in smash 7 and i forget he can't shoulder bash out of a super jump (i got grabbed at 50% and now i will lose a stock from a vacuum and a plunger)

as a pizza tower fan i approve this, Peppino will be the best character for smash bros

I kinda understand why Fraymakers "dropped the ball" on Peppino's inclusion. The truth is that he was always gonna appear as an assist first because his inclusion dates back to the Kickstarter days, entirely based on the SAGE demo version of the Italian man. The way I see it the demo probably impressed Team Fray so much they reached out to PTG to include Peppino in as one of the "hidden gem" kind of characters back then. Obviously now that the game's out with a tremendous explosion there's like 999% chance Peppino is going to get upgraded as a fighter and join the Fray, so we have that.

This moveset is awesome! Could you do one for Slugcat from Rain World, perhaps?

Thanks for the idea now all we need is someone to mod him into Smash

Nintendo NEEDS to add this with pizza tower for the switch

And what he would be referred to on the boxing ring stage is “The Mach-Speed Menace”

I love how the taunt is used, as a refrence to how you could taunt in earlier demos. (aka down + grab)

NO FAR RANGE?????I He has GUNS

For the up air, I was thinking the little shoryuken style uppercut you can do in the original game. I mean, it’s literally the same input as a Smash up air, so it just makes sense. Or maybe you could separate his up special into a grounded and aerial version with the uppercut being his aerial version and the super leap for the grounded? Just spitballin’ some ideas here. Edit: Man, now I’m thinking the aerial up special could be the spinning jump he does when he gets the Satan’s Choice. It’d work similar to Samus up special.

33:00 prank him john

Thatsa pretty good! Personally, I would make some of his other moves like his aerials and his tilts based off of transformations, but still pretty cool

I think gustavo would be an echo fight or a skin.

IIIIIII WAAAAAANNNNNNTTTTT ITTTTTTT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

Blessed by the algorythm yet again

Hey can you make some other bosses or characters? I feel like every boss (besides fakepep) could have it’s own unique moveset. Maybe even having fakepep as a skin for peppino instead

“Like enjoying a pizza with no toppings” As a guy who greatly enjoys cheese pizza, I feel like I’m getting called out.

For all the Pizza Tower Fans, I found a Local Peppini cosplayer at Motor City Comic Con!

Peppino actually will be too op because when he picks up and throws an enemy, he flies straight to the end of the room

‘Peppino runs in at Mach speeds’ could also work

Move over, Shovel Knight and Shantae, and go and stay in the trash where you rightfully belong, Sans, because *THIS* guy is the most worthy indie character of getting into Snash.

Peppino the kinda guy to be banned from tournaments

We all agree that Fake Peppino was literally DESTINED to be Peppino's Echo Fighter, right?

How to give peppino range attacks: Give him his shotgun.

Now i wanna see a noise or gus and brick moveset

Now all we need is a modder to create this amazing character and moveset in smash :D

The smash bros ceo: if we want we can putt wario instead of thay The one mentioning Peppino: Peppino can do that?

We need the noise so badly
