## Trivia

* A sixth world known as the Pizza Passage was initially planned to contain The Crumbling Tower of Pizza, initially themed around Peppino, and the Pizzaface boss fight before they were moved to the 5th world.
* The John Blocks placed throughout the hub serves as foreshadowing about The Crumbling Tower of Pizza requiring the player to race through the hub floors. Also, the fact the entrance to the tower is the same as the entrance to the levels serves as another hint towards that.
* Using the console command `panic` (used to toggle Pizza Time) when in the hub will transition into The Crumbling Tower of Pizza, due to the fact that said stage uses the hub for some of its areas.
