Quicksand is a level object that first appeared in Mega Man 4 in Pharaoh Man's stage, later appearing in Mega Man 10 in Commando Man's stage. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of its 1.3.0 version.

When placed in the Level Builder, it will not cover tiles below like water, instead only being where it is placed. However, depending on the location, each quicksand tile placed may have different textures like if one is placed between two tiles. When you play the game, the quicksand will show an animation of it running downwards. If the player steps in it, they will sink down very slowly and will be hidden by the quicksand to cosmetically point out that the player character is sinking.

The player can walk, slide or dash within quicksand although it will be slower. If they try to jump, the player's jump height is lessened but it is still possible to get out of the quicksand altogether. However, most if not all enemies and bosses will be unaffected by quicksand. Enemies that do not interact at all with quicksand will instead move straight through as though it is empty space.

Interactions

• During a Tel Tel's heat weather, Quicksand will continuously damage the player for 2 health every two seconds the player is in the Quicksand.
• The Pharaoh Man Plushie will rise in Quicksand.

Trivia

• The flavor text mocks the slowdown of the player character's movements because of the object's name.

Glitches

• Quicksand has some issues related to objects with semi-solid collisions, which leads them to treat the Quicksand as if it was solid.
