* DevelopmentHell: The progressive decline of active members from 72dpiarmy working on the game led to this state.



* {{Expy}}: Saw Man is essentially a remodelled Metal Man with a paint job. Though, the fact that HK Lurch 18's [[AuthorAppeal a big fan of the latter]] explains the similarities.

Renamed one trope.


* AbandonedHospital: Inject Man seems to occupy one. A [[RidiculouslyHumanRobots robot]]-hospital, no less!

The project was started in 2009 by the ''Mega Man 72 Team'' aka ''72dpiarmy'' and has since been in [[DevelopmentHell the works]]. Updates are posted to their forum on [[http://forum.rockmanpm.com/index.php?topic=5670.0 Rockman Perfect Memories]] on occasion.

!!This game provides examples of:
* AbandonedHospital: Inject Man seems to occupy one. A [[RidiculouslyHumanRobots robot]]-hospital, no less!
* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: Ooze Man's level is a water treatment plant.
* AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield: Distort Man's level could count as this.
* CallBack: The plot mirrors ''5'''s in nearly every respect (both involve a rival being framed by an impostor).
* ChainsawGood: Saw Man has one on his arm, that he can use to grind on the floor. As if tossing saw projectiles weren't enough.
* CreatorCameo: Distort Man and Plasma Man are the winning designs of a Robot Master contest, that was held for the game. Gamble Man is also one, but the final design is far different from its original concept.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Mostly if one [[AllThereInTheManual reads the character profiles]], anyway.
* DevelopmentHell: The progressive decline of active members from 72dpiarmy working on the game led to this state.
* EldritchAbomination: Distort Man, despite being a robot, has a freakishly nightmarish appearance.
* EternalEngine: Plasma Man's level is a giant power plant.
* {{Expy}}: Saw Man is essentially a remodelled Metal Man with a paint job. Though, the fact that HK Lurch 18's [[AuthorAppeal a big fan of the latter]] explains the similarities.
* HornetHole: Buzz Man's stage is a giant hornet hive.
* {{Kitsune}}: Being a fox, Balance is modelled after one of these.
* NonstandardCharacterDesign: Distort Man and Plasma Man. Given that their designs were chosen for the game, it's (somewhat) justified.
* [[OddlyNamedSequel Oddly Named]] FanSequel: Justified, as the game is named after the forum its development team is from. Still [[TropesareNotGood doesn't prevent it from sounding bizarre]], however.
* PinballZone: Not exactly based on pinball, but Gamble Man has a casino level.
* PlayingWithFire: Buzz Man's weapon is actually a flame thrower.
* RecycledScript: The game is essentially "5: starring Bass!".
* TheRival: Mute is this to Mega Man, Proto Man ''and'' Bass, as well as Balance for Rush and Treble.
* {{Wackyland}}: Mirror Man's level is full of weird gimmicks like this.
