Pizza Vs. Skeletons is an epic, ridiculous 2D physics platformer about a 25-foot-tall pizza smashing its way through land, sea, sky, and outer space. Crush skeletons, dodge trouble, dress up your delicious hero, chase three challenges in every level, and somehow make pizza sumo feel normal.

### 5/5 — Ideas for pizza vs skeletons

*2026-08-20*

I love this game so much but I have ideas for this game to make this game better.
1.Multiplayer mode I want this game to be a 2 player game which includes co op mode where you play with your friends or vs mode where you battle against your friends.
2.Endless mode playing the same level and world over again is real boring but I want this game to have different modes like endless mode where you crush skeletons and the game ends if you die.
3.Time attack mode In this mode you have to beat the level as fast as you can before the time runs out this includes all levels from beginning to the end. And finally boss rush mode where you beat all the bosses from all worlds in one sitting without dying. Difficulty modes I want more difficulty like hard and expert to spice up the difficulty which will be challenging and fun at the same time. More worlds and bosses I want this game to add more levels new mechanics and bosses in the game so it will be really fun. Please add this to pizza vs skeletons in the next update please thank you.🙏 ☺️

### 5/5 — PvS IS BACK!!!

*2026-08-05*

I was so scared that this game was going to get delisted! I went to check yesterday to see how the game was doing, and I couldn’t believe my eyes—it actually got updated! I’ve 100 percent three-starred the game on my iPad 4 and am now close to doing the same on my iPad Pro. Now that I can finally play the game without it crashing on my iPhone, I’m going to be playing it so much more!
The art style and sound effects of this game are so unique; there is no other game like this I've ever seen. The fact that it’s a one-time purchase with no DLC or microtransactions makes this a perfect gem in the mobile gaming industry. I’d recommend anyone of any age to play it—it’s not just for children! Whether you want a challenge or are just looking to play casually, it literally works for anyone. I can say without a doubt that this is my favorite mobile game! Screw all those microtransaction and ad-driven games. If you're looking for a one-time purchase you actually get to own, then this is the game!
Note to Developers:
I can’t thank you enough for making this game. It really was such a great childhood game, and to this day, it’s still amazing. I have so many games and apps I loved that have been delisted from the App Store, so I started to think your game was going to be delisted this year. When I saw that it got an update, it really made my day!
I hope you continue to keep this game alive. I would love it so much if you added more skins, I got way too much gold stockpiling. another way to spend coins would be amazing 😂.  My siblings, friends, and I still play your game—we just want you to know it’s not dead, it’s not dying, and we would be very sad to see it go. You have really made a One of a kind game.

**Developer response:** Superman55, this absolutely made our day! Knowing you three-starred every level on an iPad 4, are doing it again on your iPad Pro, and can finally play on iPhone without crashes is incredible. We’re especially grateful that Pizza’s art, sound, challenge, and one-time-purchase approach still stand out, and we hear you on more skins and a way to spend that gold! We've been really busy lately, but we'd love to do a content update soon, and are hoping to find the time. Please tell your siblings and friends that Pizza isn’t dead, and neither is our appreciation for players who have carried it since childhood. -Riverman Paul

*2025-11-06*

Pizza vs. Skeletons makes great use of tilt controls. The visuals in the game have a hand made style. If you don’t like the visuals at first you will start to enjoy them after playing Pizza vs. Skeletons for a while. They might even become your new favorite visual style.
