Pizza TowerArchipelago randomizer mod

Playing with others

Separate Archipelago slots exchange items through the room, synchronously or across sessions. Character Swap is a game option, not evidence that the integration adds networked co-op. One local game/client pair should serve one active slot.

Known scope and limitations

• The reviewed distribution targets the Steam Windows game. It requires both pizza_tower.apworld and the separate game patch from the linked GameBanana page. The world manifest requires Archipelago 0.6.3 or later.
• Use Pizza Oven for the documented mod-manager route, or Delta Patcher with the supplied XDelta patch against a clean data.win. Back up the original installation first; do not force a patch when its checksum does not match.
• The setup does not pin a supported base-game version. A future update or another data.win mod can invalidate the patch, so consult the current maintainer instructions rather than assuming all game builds are interchangeable.
• Start the patched game, choose a file, then connect Pizza Tower Client to the correct room, case-sensitive slot and password. The APWorld includes that client, but is not itself the game patch.
• Game and client communicate through a local WebSocket on port 12312. Use one Pizza Tower integration instance at a time on that machine; this is not a multi-instance save router.
• Use the mod's AP save handling and resume the matching room. Keep backups before switching campaigns or using its save-cleanup command, which removes AP save data. Keep the client running and connected while progressing.
• S- and P-rank challenges require substantially more execution skill than basic collection. P ranks also satisfy S-rank checks; related Chef Tasks are excluded when the corresponding rank-check option is disabled.
• The Snotty goal cannot use floor one as its home floor because that leaves no playable lower-floor route. This was fixed in the preceding release; generate a new room when changing the goal or floor configuration.
• Version 1.3.3 fixes generation when S/P-ranked Chef Tasks were present without their rank-check options. Its game patch was republished to align version labels; the actual hotfix was in the APWorld.
• The project has a concrete maintained patch and recent logic fixes, but Panludia has not independently completed a current campaign. Linux or Proton compatibility, safe disconnected play and unrelated mod combinations are not established by the reviewed setup.
