Hyper Bomb is Bomb Man's signature weapon, originating from Mega Man 1 and reappearing in Mega Man: The Wily Wars and Mega Man Powered Up. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of version 1.1.0. It allows the user to throw a bomb in an arc, which will bounce slightly on the ground before exploding after 1 second. This explosion spans a plus-shaped area that stretches out 6 tiles from the point of detotation. If it touches an enemy or Weapon Block, it will detonate immediately, and it can ignore any shields they may have. It can be thrown higher or farther by holding the up or down keys before firing. The bomb responds to the low gravity induced by being underwater, and it will bounce on Springs and Bouncy Balls. If suspended in air by one of the two objects, it will detonate automatically after 3 seconds. Only one Hyper Bomb can be onscreen at once.

Trivia

• The ability to control Hyper Bomb's trajectory is based off of Bomb Man's version of the weapon in Mega Man Powered Up.
• The plus-shaped explosion is a reference to the Bomberman series, which has bombs that explode in a similar manner.
