The '''Giant Springer''' is an enemy from ''[[Mega Man 3]]'' that appeared in [[Magnet Man]]'s stage and the Doc Robot version of Needle Man's stage. It was introduced in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' in version [[1.7.0]].
'''Ladder Press''' is an [[Enemies|enemy]] in the ''Mega Man'' series, originating from the first and second Cossack stages from ''[[Mega Man 4]]'' and reappearing in Snake Man's stage in ''[[Mega Man III]]''. It was added to ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' in [[1.7.0]].


When the Giant Springer spawns, it will approach the [[Characters|player character]] at a normal speed until it fires a missile. After that, it will approach the player at an extremely slow pace and waits until the missile is destroyed or is off-screen. Once the missile is destroyed, the Giant Springer will fire another missile. Only one missile can be on-screen at a time. Similarly to Mega Man 3, these missiles can also drop [[health]] and [[weapon energy]] [[pickups]]. The missile will constantly home in on the player until it is destroyed. If the Giant Springer is approached by the player, its head will constantly spring up until the player is no longer near it. While in this state, it will not be able to move or attack.
When its chomps are in between a [[ladder]], a Ladder Press moves up and down on it, opening and closing on intervals in an attempt to damage the [[Characters|player]]. It will move 5 tiles up or down twice, 3.5 tiles up or down twice, then repeat the pattern. A Ladder Press will move up or down towards the player after closing depending on the player's correlation to the Ladder Press on the horizontal x-axis. If a Ladder Press is obstructed by a solid object on either side of a ladder, it will not move past the object obstructing it. It will also not move past hard transitions between vertical [[screens]]. Without a ladder, a Ladder Press remains stationary and is affected by gravity. It acts like a solid 3x1 object that can still deal damage with a 1x1 gap in the middle when not on a ladder. A Ladder Press can be moved by other [[Level Objects|level objects]] such as [[Conveyor Belts]] and moving platforms. It will perform its regular ladder behavior when it is placed in between any part of a ladder. Most [[Weapons|weapon]] shots fired at the Ladder Press will be bounced off. However, a Ladder Press can be frozen by ice weapons such as the [[Ice Slasher]] and [[Freeze Cracker]].


If the player gets behind the Giant Springer, it will turn around to face them.
In the [[Level Builder]], the Ladder Press has a space in the middle to allow it to be placed on ladders in the middle. It can be set to be either red, orange or green.

Ladder Press is an enemy in the Mega Man series, originating from the first and second Cossack stages from Mega Man 4 and reappearing in Snake Man's stage in Mega Man III. It was added to Mega Man Maker in 1.7.0.

When its chomps are in between a ladder, a Ladder Press moves up and down on it, opening and closing on intervals in an attempt to damage the player. It will move 5 tiles up or down twice, 3.5 tiles up or down twice, then repeat the pattern. A Ladder Press will move up or down towards the player after closing depending on the player's correlation to the Ladder Press on the horizontal x-axis. If a Ladder Press is obstructed by a solid object on either side of a ladder, it will not move past the object obstructing it. It will also not move past hard transitions between vertical screens. Without a ladder, a Ladder Press remains stationary and is affected by gravity. It acts like a solid 3x1 object that can still deal damage with a 1x1 gap in the middle when not on a ladder. A Ladder Press can be moved by other level objects such as Conveyor Belts and moving platforms. It will perform its regular ladder behavior when it is placed in between any part of a ladder. Most weapon shots fired at the Ladder Press will be bounced off. However, a Ladder Press can be frozen by ice weapons such as the Ice Slasher and Freeze Cracker.

In the Level Builder, the Ladder Press has a space in the middle to allow it to be placed on ladders in the middle. It can be set to be either red, orange or green.
