Mr. Pinch is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Mr. Pinch is a man made of cheese with a floating hand with dark orange nails, connected to the main body with several black orbs. He wears a top hat, has a pointy nose, and has a big grin. He sits inside a pipe, with a smaller arm showing.

Behavior

Mr. Pinch floats in the air in a brown pipe. When the player is near him, he attempts to grab the player, causing his hand to be pulled downwards due to the weight if successful. The player can slingshot out of his hand to cross large gaps. He cannot be defeated in any way.

Trivia

• Mr. Pinch is based off of Ebeneezer Scrooge, Fagin from Oliver Twist and Mr. Burns.
• Mr. Pinch originally would have long legs with black pants and shoes. That was changed to him just sitting inside a pipe.
  • However, his legs, black pants and shoes can still found in the game file.
• His animations in-game suggest that he is grabbing onto one of Peppino's pockets in order to steal a coin from it.
