'''Timed Levels''' are a level type in Mega Man Maker that are based around either forcing the player to do something quickly, or to block the end of the level away from the player until a time threshold has elapsed.
Timed levels have changed in their implementations through the versions.

In old versions of the game, the only way to make a timer was to use a '''[[Footholder]]''' on a long path. Although there doesn't seem to be many levels that intentionally used footholders to achieve this mechanic. There is [https://megamaker.webmeka.io/level-data.php?id=214298 only one level] that specifically mentions timers and uses footholders.

Timed levels really started being a thing with the version [[1.3.0]] when Ring Platforms were introduced. '''[[Ring Platform]]''' has a unique feature that allows them to function anywhere on the game map regardless of being loaded into play.
