      <p>Pizza Labs operates at the intersection of ludological tradition and contemporary symbolic systems. Our practice centers on the strategic deployment of the pizza emoji (🍕) as a transformative agent within established gaming paradigms.</p>

      <p>Through rigorous application of minimalist intervention methodology, we examine how singular symbolic substitutions reconfigure meaning within interactive digital spaces. The pizza—simultaneously foodstuff, geometric form, and cultural signifier—serves as our primary artistic material. When inserted into canonical gaming structures (Pong, 1972; Asteroids, 1979), this triangular Unicode glyph reveals the arbitrary nature of ludic representation while maintaining functional gameplay integrity.</p>

      <p>Our constraint-based practice embraces the pizza as both limitation and liberation. This self-imposed restriction generates what Stravinsky might recognize as "freedom through discipline"—each project must incorporate pizza imagery while preserving the essential mechanics of its source material. The resulting works exist in a liminal space between homage and transformation, between the nostalgic and the contemporary.</p>

      <p>The emoji, as the vernacular pictographic language of our era, democratizes artistic expression. Pizza Labs recognizes emoji not as decoration but as legitimate artistic medium—a visual esperanto that transcends linguistic boundaries. Our work is produced through contemporary development methodologies, utilizing whatever tools and collaborations the current technological moment provides.</p>

      <p>Pizza Labs: Where the triangle meets the circle, where the classic meets the contemporary, where fun requires no justification.</p>

      <p><em>[Adjusts monocle, sips espresso]</em></p>

      <p>Dearest patron of the digital arts, allow us to elucidate the profound philosophical underpinnings of what might appear—to the untrained eye—as merely "putting pizza emojis in old games."</p>

      <p>Pizza Labs emerged from a singular moment of enlightenment: What if Pong, that ur-text of interactive entertainment, featured not a banal square "ball" but rather a pizza? Yes, a PIZZA! <em>[dramatic pause]</em> This seemingly trivial substitution contains multitudes. It is Duchamp's urinal for the emoji generation. It is Warhol's soup can for the App Store epoch.</p>

      <p>Consider the sublime geometry: The pizza slice, that perfect isosceles triangle, mirrors precisely the spacecraft of Asteroids. This is not coincidence—this is DESTINY. When we replace polygon with pizza, we are not merely swapping sprites; we are engaging in a radical act of semiotic terrorism, liberating games from their original signifiers while lovingly preserving their mechanical souls.</p>

      <p>Our artistic constraints—every project MUST feature pizza—create what we call "The Mozzarella Mandate." Like the Dogme 95 movement in cinema, we embrace limitation as liberation. The pizza is our vow of chastity, our handheld camera, our natural light.</p>

      <p>And yes, we code these masterworks using AI assistants, because <em>of course</em> we do. Just as Warhol had his Factory, we have our algorithms. The act of creation in 2025 is inherently collaborative between human and machine—to pretend otherwise would be positively <em>gauche</em>.</p>

      <p>Remember: When you play Pizza Pong, you're not just batting a food emoji around a screen. You're participating in a radical reimagining of digital nostalgia. You're complicit in our delicious subversion.</p>

      <p><strong><em>Have fun. Don't overthink it.</em></strong> ™️</p>

      <p>Pizza Labs began with the stupidest possible question: "What if Pong, but pizza?"</p>

      <p>This ridiculous premise became our north star. By changing just one element—replacing the ball with a pizza emoji—we discovered something unexpectedly delightful. Classic games, when given the smallest twist, become fresh again. Familiar yet different. Nostalgic yet new.</p>

      <p>Our philosophy is simple: minimal modification, maximum joy. We take games you know by heart and add just enough pizza to make you smile. The pizza slice in Asteroids isn't just funny because it's food in space—it's geometrically perfect, a triangle defending against triangular threats. These happy accidents of form and function drive our work.</p>

      <p>Working within constraints sparks creativity. "Must include pizza" sounds limiting, but it's liberating. Every Pizza Labs game starts from this single requirement and builds from there. It's our version of "write what you know," except what we know is that pizza makes everything better.</p>

      <p>The emoji is our paint, the App Store our gallery. We're part of a generation that communicates in pictographs, so why shouldn't our art? A pizza emoji carries cultural weight—comfort food, shared meals, guilty pleasures, geometric satisfaction. When you see 🍕 flying across your screen, you're not just seeing pixels. You're seeing a symbol that means something.</p>

      <p>We build these games the way everyone builds things now—with whatever tools work best, including AI collaboration. There's nothing exceptional about coding with AI assistants anymore. It's just how software gets made, like using an IDE instead of notepad. The magic isn't in the tools; it's in knowing what to build.</p>

      <p>At Pizza Labs, we believe in the profound power of not taking ourselves too seriously. Have fun. Don't overthink it. But also: think about it just enough to realize how perfect a pizza slice looks shooting asteroids in space.</p>

      <p><strong>WE DECLARE:</strong></p>

      <p><strong>1. The Age of Pizza has begun!</strong> No longer shall games languish in pizza-less mediocrity!</p>

      <p><strong>2. One Element Changed Changes Everything!</strong> We reject bloated remakes! We reject endless sequels! We champion the SINGLE MODIFICATION that transforms meaning!</p>

      <p><strong>3. The Pizza Is the Message!</strong> 🍕 is not decoration—it is COMMUNICATION! Every pizza placed is a statement: JOY IS NECESSARY!</p>

      <p><strong>4. Emoji Are the People's Art!</strong> We reject gatekeeping! We reject inaccessible symbology! We embrace the universal language of food icons!</p>

      <p><strong>5. Constraint Is Freedom!</strong> Every Pizza Labs creation MUST feature pizza! This limitation is our STRENGTH! Our IDENTITY! Our DELICIOUS BURDEN!</p>

      <p><strong>6. Nostalgia Demands Remixing!</strong> We honor the classics by CHANGING them! Pong is eternal—but eternity needs pizza!</p>

      <p><strong>7. The Triangle Contains Multitudes!</strong> Observe: 🍕 = 🔺 = spaceship = pyramid = fundamental form of the universe! This is not coincidence! This is GEOMETRIC TRUTH!</p>

      <p><strong>8. Tools Are Tools!</strong> We code with humans! We code with machines! We code with whatever gets pizza on screen! The method is irrelevant—THE PIZZA IS ALL!</p>

      <p><strong>9. Pretension Is the Enemy of Fun!</strong> We refuse to apologize for joy! We refuse to justify delight! We refuse to explain why pizza!</p>

      <p><strong>10. Have Fun! Don't Overthink It!</strong> But also: overthink it exactly the right amount to appreciate the sublime absurdity of pizza-based gaming!</p>

      <p><strong>JOIN US!</strong> Download Pizza Pong! Play Pizzaroids! Experience the future of the past with extra cheese!</p>
