'''Bubukan''' is a spring robot holding a pole. It was originally designed by [[Dr. Light]] to participate in the Robot Olympics in the pole vault competition, but was repurposed by [[Dr. Wily]] for combat. They are [[enemies]] that originate from ''[[Mega Man 3]]'' from various stages.
'''Quicksand''' is a level object that first appeared in ''Mega Man 4'' in [[Pharaoh Man]]'s stage, later appearing in ''[[Mega Man 10]]'' in Commando Man's stage. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of its [[1.3.0]] version.


When Bubukan is spawned, it will attempt to dash at the player, holding its pole in front of itself to deflect most projectile fired at it. If it collides with a wall, it will reverse direction and keep dashing.
When placed in the [[Level Builder]], it will not cover tiles below like water, instead only being where it is placed. However, depending on the location, each quicksand tile placed may have different textures like if one is placed between two tiles. When you play the game, the quicksand will show an animation of it running downwards. If the player steps in it, they will sink down very slowly and will be hidden by the quicksand to cosmetically point out that the player character is sinking.


If Bubukan comes within 3.5 tiles of the player horizontally, it will use its pole to jump into the air to attempt to land on the player, it also drops the pole in the process making it more vulnerable to attacks.
The player can walk, slide or dash within quicksand although it will be slower. If they try to jump, the player's jump height is lessened but it's still possible to get out of the quicksand altogether. However, most if not all enemies and bosses will be unaffected by quicksand. Enemies that do not interact at all with quicksand will instead move straight through as though it is empty space.
 
When Bubukan lands after jumping, it will dash in the opposite direction it was dashing before jumping. If it collides with a wall, it will reverse direction and keep dashing.
 
The pole, once dropped by Bubukan, can damage the player if it hits them, but can also be attacked and destroyed. It can not be deflected by [[Shine]] or [[Proto Man]]'s Shield.
 
Bubukan can be selected to be the colours orange or red within ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'''s [[Level Builder]].


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*A variant of Bubukan without its pole, referred to as Bubukan MK-II, appears in ''[[Mega Man III]]''.
The flavor text mocks the slowdown of the player character's movements because of the object's name.
*Originally, in ''[[Mega Man 3]]'', Bubukan's AI made it try to land behind the player after jumping, but in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'', its AI is changed to make it try to land on top of the player after jumping.
*Originally, in ''[[Mega Man 3]]'', Bubukan had 4 HP, but in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'', only has 3 HP.
*This enemy and the weapon [[Shadow Blade]] were part of the programmer call held during [[1.4.0]]. The applicants were tasked to program them and the selected programmer would implement it into the game.


==Glitches==
==Glitches==
*Under certain conditions, Bubukan can jump-cancel over up to 5 tile high walls it should normally bounce off of.
*Quicksand has some issues related to objects with semi-solid collisions, which leads them to treat the Quicksand as if it was solid.

Quicksand is a level object that first appeared in Mega Man 4 in Pharaoh Man's stage, later appearing in Mega Man 10 in Commando Man's stage. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of its 1.3.0 version.

When placed in the Level Builder, it will not cover tiles below like water, instead only being where it is placed. However, depending on the location, each quicksand tile placed may have different textures like if one is placed between two tiles. When you play the game, the quicksand will show an animation of it running downwards. If the player steps in it, they will sink down very slowly and will be hidden by the quicksand to cosmetically point out that the player character is sinking.

The player can walk, slide or dash within quicksand although it will be slower. If they try to jump, the player's jump height is lessened but it's still possible to get out of the quicksand altogether. However, most if not all enemies and bosses will be unaffected by quicksand. Enemies that do not interact at all with quicksand will instead move straight through as though it is empty space.

Trivia

The flavor text mocks the slowdown of the player character's movements because of the object's name.

Glitches

  • Quicksand has some issues related to objects with semi-solid collisions, which leads them to treat the Quicksand as if it was solid.
