DWN-058 Astro Man is a Robot Master that appears as a boss in Mega Man 8 and Mega Man & Bass. His appearance and behavior in Mega Man 8 was added in version 1.5.0 of Mega Man Maker. Astro Man fights using his signature weapons, the screen-encompassing Astro Crush and illusive Copy Vision, along with his spheres that orbit his body and fire projectiles.
Astro Man is a robot built for use in a planetarium but was modified by Dr. Wily for combat and sent to destroy [[Mega Man]. He along with Tengu Man were later rebuilt for use in combat again by the robot King as a part of his robot revolution where they once again came into conflict with Mega Man as well as Bass.
Behavior
Astro Man has three attack patterns that he can randomly use during battle.
- A spin and dive towards the player in an attempt to collide with them.
- An attack involving Astro Man's spherical balls: they rotate in an elliptical path and shoot shooting star projectiles. Astro Man is an easy target during this attack as he does not move or attempt to guard himself.
- The Astro Crush, which consists of a meteor rain made up of flaming afterimages of himself that are indestructible but can be reflected or canceled out by certain weapons such as the Mirror Buster. Before using it, he quickly flashes across several sections of the screen in an attempt to confuse the player. Both Astro Man and his spheres are intangible during this attack.
Unlike most bosses, Astro Man floats in the air and does not travel on terrain or other solid assets such as the Conveyor Belt.
Video Tutorial
Trivia
- In Mega Man 8, Astro Man's Astro Crush attack originally had a safe spot located at the last height where Astro Man appeared. Aze stated that this safe spot was removed for Mega Man Maker "to make the boss more challenging and fun".
- Because Astro Man is featured as a boss in both Mega Man 8 and Mega Man & Bass, he is one of few Robot Masters that have multiple special weapons usable by the player in the classic Mega Man series. In Mega Man 8, the player obtains the Astro Crush upon defeating Astro Man while in Mega Man & Bass, the player obtains the Copy Vision. As of version 1.8.5.2, Copy Vision is the only weapon of the two available in Mega Man Maker for use by the player.
- Astro Man is notably weaker in Mega Man & Bass' 'compared to how he is in Mega Man 8, having all of his attacks reduced from 6 damage to 2 or 3 with the exception of his contact damage of 4 being unchanged. His total health was also reduced from 40 to 28 to resemble the standard health of other Robot Master bosses in Mega Man Maker.
- Although Tengu Man features "MM8" in his file name to specify he does not use his Mega Man & Bass pattern, Astro Man does not despite appearing in said game.
- This is likely because Astro Man was added years prior to Mega Man & Bass content being added to Mega Man Maker.
