'''Skull Barrier''' is [[Skull Man]]'s signature weapon, originating from ''[[Mega Man 4]]'' and reappearing in ''[[Mega Man III]]''. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' as of version [[1.0.0]].


When activated, the user is surrounded by a shield of skulls than can nullify one projectile or damage an enemy once before dissipating. It also possesses the ability to make its wielder immune to instant-death [[spikes]], [[Sheep Spike]]s, [[Spike Platform]]s and ignited [[Oil]] as long as it's active. Unlike most shield weapons, Skull Barrier cannot be thrown forward. Regarding [[bosses]], [[Wood Man]]'s Leaf Shield, [[Plant Man]]'s Plant Barrier, [[Grenade Man]]'s Flash Bomb and falling debris, and [[Astro Man]]'s Astro Crush are the only projectiles that cannot be nullified.
Spikes, ladders and water are grouped together in the tilesets category of the Level Builder.

==List of spikes==
As of version [[1.7.5]], there are a total of 176 different types of spikes in Mega Man Maker. This includes

==Trivia==
* Some of the spikes, like the ones from ''Mega Man'' and ''Mega Man 10'' and ''Dr. Cossack Stage 3'' spike have a custom air spike tile if there is no ground around the spike. This idea was taken from ''[[Mega Man Powered Up]]'', where spikes not connected to the ground had a shuriken appearance. It did not happen in the main game modes, but it could be seen in the Challenges and the Construction mode.
* The Top Man spike prior to 1.5 [http://web.archive.org/web/20200926165810/https://tcrf.net/Mega_Man_3_(NES)#Spikes_2 was based on an unused spike tile] from Top Man's original stage. It was relocated as a Gemini Spike, presumably because of its visual similarity to the spikes there.
* If the player character spawns on spikes in any way, they will spawn in their invincibility frames.
