There seems to be a lot going wrong in that log. Failed memory allocations, missing files, failed texture loads…

Ignoring all that, this is almost certainly a hardware issue. The Vita has just 512MB of RAM and a 32 bit processor, compared to the Switch’s 4GB of RAM and 64 bit processor. According to the Steam page for Pizza Tower, a 64 bit processor is required to run the game, and this discussion explains why: Pizza Tower was made in a version of GameMaker/GMS2 newer than version 2022.8, which discontinued support for 32 bit Windows exports. No idea whether this also applies to the unofficial Switch port, but I would assume it does given that the Switch is also a 64 bit system.

Even if that’s not actually the issue and this IS possible to run in any capacity, wouldn’t memory be a problem? The Vita has the absolute bare minimum amount of RAM necessary to run Pizza Tower, and I bet some of that is already dedicated to running the OS.

I hate to crush your dreams but this seems impossible.
