Despite largely being a Game Maker tool, Mega Man Maker has a pretty good sense of humor.


  • The exchanges Dr. Wily & Dr. Light have during the tutorial, with Wily wanting you to make Platform Hell levels filled with spikes, and Light (who has been assured by Wily that this isn't another evil plan of his) frequently correcting him by telling the player how to make a fairly-designed level.
  • Put Bubble Man on land. He does nothing but cry and shoot a single Bubble Lead at a time. It's as funny as it is sad.
  • Using Wind Storm on enemies will automatically whisk them up into the ceiling, so you can have instances where a Big Eye (or any similarly giant enemy) looks like it's making a giant jump... and then never comes back down.
  • Some of Bass' victory poses. When he is on a ladder, he will do a thumbs down, and if he is sliding (either via Charge Kick or a character change), he will do a facepalm.
  • When Petit Devil and Carricarry were confirmed (or at least their officialization was), the creators did a joke that many people already discovered them on the files.
  • Toad Man is usually the butt of jokes as a boss, but if you set him in a long screen, more than 2-screens wide, get very far and attack you'll be treated to the image of Toad Man leaping to your position at rocket speeds so fast you'll be barely able to register what that green, snot-like, thing that just pounced you was.
  • Wily Machine #4, like in the original game, has Dr. Wily escaping while his machine explodes. Savvy players can try to use the Rain Flush to recreate the glitch where Dr. Wily "dies", and it still works! And without softlock, to boot.
  • Flavor text. In general it's pretty useful, but for tile-sets, ladders, and spikes, which all behave the same but just look different appearances, they all still have unique, and oftentimes funny descriptions.
    • The Yoku block has an onomatopoeia in its own description. "Dwooooooop."
    • Both the Bubble Man backgrounds say that they don't "give you an eye seizure". On the topic of seizures, the description for the 3rd Mega Man 5 Wily background said that the "green pillars... used to flash, but Dr. Wily got a seizure."
    • "Heh heh, it looks like there's a face in the middle [of the Dark Man 2 background]. I'm a comedic genius."
    • All of the second set of Mega Man 6 robot master backgrounds state how much they resemble the continents they're based on, with all but 2 of them "faintly resembling the style of [said continents]", while Knight Man's background fits England's style "quite decently" and Yamato Man's background fits Japan's style "surprisingly well".
    • The Mega Man 6 Mr. X 2 background says that you get two backgrounds for the price of one! The second one shows some planets and just says "Spaaaaceeeee".
    • The game has a Suspiciously Specific Denial problem with some of the Mr. X tiles and backgrounds, with a few stating that they are definitely not Wily "tiles in disguise". The Mr. X 2 tiles also state that "Wily ordered a lot of these tiles, but they aren't in his stages. Suspicious."
    • Unfortunately, the Cloud Man tiles "could not break the limits of the autotiler, so it has no fans."
    • The Mega Man 7 Wily 1 background says that Dr. Wily put in a surprising amount of washing machines in his fortress.
