Shine is an original weapon created for Mega Man Maker based off of Fox's down special, the Reflector, from the Super Smash Bros. series, specifically, Super Smash Bros. Melee onward. When activated, the user will be surrounded by a hexagonal light barrier that will do a small a amount of damage to any enemies immediately around it when it first comes out. If it is held down and kept active, the user can't move but the shield will reflect any projectiles shot at the user back in the direction they were shot. Additionally, when activated in the air the weapon will cut the user's momentum and slow them down while falling, allowing the user to glide if the button is pressed quickly and repeatedly while moving left or right.
If there are one or more Fire Beams or Elec Beams, Shine can help the player to protect themselves from the beams if the player is keeping the fire button pressed. There will be no protection if the player character activates and deactivates the Shine repeatedly.

Trivia

- Before publicly announcing Mega Man Maker, WreckingPrograms uploaded a video showcasing Shine in the Mega Engine.[1]
- WreckingPrograms' profile picture on the forums features an edited image of Mega Man from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U equipped with the Shine weapon.
- Mega Man's pose while activating Shine is based off an unused pose in the NES video game Wily & Right no RockBoard: That's Paradise.
- As of version 1.7.3.3, Shine is one of only four weapons featured in Mega Man Maker that are from outside the Mega Man series. The other three are Nado and Command Selection, which are also from the Super Smash Bros. series, and Perfect Freeze from the Touhou series.
- Due to Bass being slightly bigger than Mega Man and Proto Man, his Shine shield sprite is slightly wider.
- When the player initiates Shine, they completely freeze in place for a brief moment.
- This can be used to slow-fall.
Glitches
- If used under a platform moving upwards into a wall, the player will clip into the wall.
