Mach Running is one of Peppino's most important abilities for blasting his way through the tower. Landing also stuns surrounding enemies for a brief period of time. With enough height, this can be used to break metal boxes, indicated by the meteor-like effect. The fall can slightly be adjusted by pressing left and right. Pressing down while in the air makes Peppino perform a ground pound, damaging enemies from above. Peppino can bounce higher off of an enemy by holding the jump button when landing on top of the enemy. Jumping on top of enemies will stun them. Peppino is the most balanced character included in the game due to the great quantity of abilities at his disposal. Stick is still considered to be one of Peppino's friends. This could be the reason behind Peppino's large amounts of debt. Stick can be seen running off with a bag of money, behind what is assumed to be Peppino's Pizza. As shown in the game's intro, running the restaurant seems to be putting Peppino in a bit of debt, with little to no money shown in the shop.

The restaurant is implied to be in rough shape, with buckets of water spilled on the floor (with a stray bucket), and pizza sliding off the counter.

He is the owner of Peppino's Pizza, named after himself. Despite his rough emotional state and portly figure, he is shown to be rather strong, as he can pick up and throw large objects with ease, run extremely quickly, tear through enemies with Mach abilities, among many other powerful attacks. He is only shown to be happy when he accomplishes something, for example, when Peppino collects a key or treasure, getting an A-Rank or higher, and during the True Ending. He shows signs of both anger and fear, frequently shifting between the two. He also has black hair and a small mustache under his long nose. Peppino is a portly Italian chef wearing a black T-shirt, black pants, a white tank top, and a chef's hat.
