The Bell Ringer is a level object from Mega Man 8 and Mega Man & Bass, originating from Clown Man's stage and Magic Man's stage respectively. It is featured in Mega Man Maker since version 1.8.0.

The Bell Ringer is a hammer-wielding robot near a bell. Once the bell is rung by the robot, level objects corresponding to the color of the Bell Ringer will automatically be triggered. The interval between each ring can be set between 2 and 9 seconds.

A Bell Ringer is stationary as it was in Magic Man's stage in Mega Man & Bass instead of entering and leaving doors like it did in Clown Man's stage in Mega Man 8. As a level object, a Bell Ringer is not solid, is unaffected by gravity, and can be passed through by the player without dealing damage. It remains active in a section even if it is not on-screen. However, a Bell Ringer that is not on-screen is not active once the player has won a level.

There are six variations of Bell Ringer, each affecting different level objects:

Icon Color Description
Magenta Rotates Rotating Spike Blocks, as it did in Mega Man & Bass
Orange Extends Hornet Rolls and momentarily pauses Fire Walls
Yellow Activates Fuse Laser Crawlers/Turrets and Ring/Coil Platforms
Green Flips Spike Platforms and Flip Platforms
Blue Increases the water level and strength of the Rain
Pink Rotates Punch Blocks and opens/closes Plantforms

Trivia

  • In a publicly showcased developer build of 1.8 from the update's Q&A livestream, the Bell Ringer's ring sound effect was not implemented despite being finalized. This resulted in the a placeholder, the Taco Bell sound effect, playing every time the bell rang. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwBP-fjcAz4&t=5995s)
  • Despite first appearing in Mega Man 8, the Bell Ringer is found in the Mega Man & Bass section under Level Objects.
  • A special red variant of the Bell Ringer appears as a decoration in Magic BG 6 Bell while two red variants of the Bell Ringer appear in Magic BG 7 Bell. The time interval between each ring is fixed at 3 seconds and they do not have any interaction with level objects.
