{{quote|Oh...all right then. But why, though?|[[Shinryu]]|judge comment}}
'''You Don't Know the Drill''' is the 172nd place level in ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 3]]''. A level that starts off with a similar aesthetic to Drill Man's stage, it eventually transitions into a small recreation of ''[[Mega Man 2]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Wily Castle. This transition is conveyed by a plethora of signs ostensibly depicting a conversation between [[Crash Man]] and [[Guts Man]] while building the level.

==Strategy==
The way to progress isn't always clear. In the first room, [[Mega Man]] has to access a [[Gravity Flip]] by jumping into the green tube. After falling upwards, go left, and continue holding left while falling when gravity flips back to normal. After this, the level is rather straightforward to complete, with the only notable feature being a large amount of signs that can be easily ignored.

The first two [[Trickster Token]]s are located in areas accessible via hidden ladders that go down into secret rooms, both of which are difficult to find without the Level Compass upgrade (though a sufficiently observant player may notice a vertical "line" of tiles that look slightly out of place). The first is on the very first platform, while the second is on the first screen with signs, and both can be found by holding down while walking over them or looking for tiles which are slightly different. The second token room contains a generous amount of bolts and tanks, making it a good farming spot. The final Trickster Token can be obtained by using either the [[Rush Jet]] or the [[Magnet Beam]] to reach the ladder above the purple tiles. These tiles are fake, and will cause Mega Man to fall through them and into the boss corridor; after which is a battle against [[Metall Daddy]].

==Judge Comments==
{{JudgeComment3
|mick=Not funny, didn't laugh. Humour can be a nice thing to have, but it's important to have an actual level behind it. This... ultimately does not. It at least starts with something of a level, albeit one with naught but some gravity flips and weirdly recolored enemies. Also, it didn't even use mugshots for Crash Man or Guts Man, despite the engine supporting that, and the music dies so easily that I'm not convinced it's the engine this time.

|shin=[[File:MaGMML3-YouDontKnowTheDrillComicShin.png|center]] Oh...all right then. But why, though? In all seriousness, however, there's not a whole lot to discuss here. Design-wise, this level is all over the place. Many of the sections are either largely empty, or feature inefficient enemies thanks to their placements (with special mention going to the Hot Dog, who you can safely kill by standing right next to it). The tokens are probably the most notable things here, given two of them are hidden in a pretty ridiculous way. While the level does hint at them - via some ground tiles being slightly different - it's such a minor and easy to miss detail that, quite frankly, I can't see anyone obtaining them their first time through (without prior knowledge or the map upgrades, at least).

|pachy=But Do You Know the Bulldozer? Well that was certainly a level. There's a story being told in the form of a million signposts that I'm not gonna read through. This ain't a Minecraft adventure map. I guess it's somewhat entertaining to look at the wacky changing visuals and unexpected tricks the level occasionally throws at you. Other than that, though, there isn't really any, like, actual level design going on for the majority of the level.

|flashman=You're right: I *don't* know the drill. Because I was under the impression that the drill was to make a good Mega Man level, not a haphazard collision of assets that uses a silly narrative to excuse the absence of real level design. This entire level hinges on the player being amused by the premise of sloppiness due to budget issues. If the humor falls flat--or worse yet, if the player ignores the generically named infoboxes, which don't even bother with character portraits--then the whole thing becomes a waste of time. The story is the only reason to play this level. Graphics? Most screens consist of repetitive foreground with a nondescript or crudely abstract background. Soundtrack? It's a hodgepodge of decent tunes that don't complement each other (assuming the music starts playing at all!), and I'm always wary when levels reuse iconic music from previous MaGMMLs (X Factory would like a word with the Wily Castle section). Gameplay? Shoot the thing in front of you, jump over an easy gap. Learn how more than a dozen unrelated enemies and gimmicks function, then wonder if you'll see any of them again. Fall through a fake floor and then replay the whole level to get the token you were cheated out of. Polish? Bottomless pits are indistinguishable from screen transitions. Gravity flippers hardly look like gravity flippers. Invisible and completely absent collision objects turn air into walls and walls into air--jump over the gate to turn Wily Castle into Wily Prison! Problems like these make the hidden ladders look like actual tiling mistakes instead of something suspicious to be investigated. I like the idea of a level that's comically falling apart because of imaginary money matters. But this one falls apart because it's a joke first and a Mega Man level second.

{{quote|buy a taco or i'll make you listen to my song|Taco Man|[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 3]]}}
'''Taco Man''' is the boss of the ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 2]]'' stage [[Taco Man (stage)|Taco Man]]. Confirmed taco, possibly Mexican.

==Battle==
Taco Man has two different attacks. During the first, he will throw five tacos in a parabolic arc towards your location. During the second, he pauses, heaves a massive taco over his head, and then chucks it in a straight line towards you. He also occasionally jumps across the arena, to keep you on your toes.

==Strategy==
It's notable that all but one attack can be easily evaded without jumping, so the general strategy is: stay either really close or really far against him, be prepare to move when he does anything but the giant taco attack, and be ready to jump if he did do the giant taco attack. Be really cautious of your movement when he tries to jump on you: it's extremely easy to get cornered here, and if he does anything other than jumping when you're cornered you're pretty much screwed.

Costumes

2024-07-04T09:23:32Z

Ryminio:

:''For user-made costumes, see [[Custom Costumes]].''
'''Costumes''' are purchasable unlockables in the ''MaGMML'' series, that change [[Mega Man|Mega Man's]] appearance. Aside from a few exceptions, they are purely cosmetic and offer no gameplay differences and/or advantages.

==''Make a Good Mega Man Level''==
Only a single costume can be found in the original ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level]]'' game — the [[Proto Man]] costume, purchasable from [[Eddie's Shop]] from the beginning for a paltry 50 bolts. It does ''not'' change any dialogue (even the player's name), unlike in future installments.

==''Make a Good Mega Man Level Remastered''==
[[Roll]] runs a costume shop located right under [[Tier 5 (MaGMML)|Tier 5]]. Costumes of Proto Man, Roll, and [[Bass]] are available for 50 bolts each, as well as the [[Custom Costumes]] option for 200 bolts. The costumes now change dialogue containing Mega Man's name, with the exception of [[Justice Man|Holo-Justice Man]]'s pre-fight dialogue.

==''Make a Good Mega Man Level 2''==
Costumes not only return from the first game, but are greatly expanded upon. Roll runs a costume shop located between [[Tier 4 (MaGMML2)|Tier 4]] and [[Tier 5 (MaGMML2)|Tier 5]], where the player can go at any time to purchase a costume or equip one they have already purchased. Some skins cannot use the [[Alternate Weapons|alternate weapon set]], due to not having the necessary sprites. In the Costume Shop, which costumes can and cannot use the alternate weapons are denoted by a [[Haunt Pumpkin|pumpkin icon]] in the lower right corner of the skin display. When the Proto Man Mode and/or Bass Mode [[Cheat Mode|cheats]] are active, the Costume Shop will be closed off, preventing the use of costumes.

Many costumes are locked off and require fulfilling an extra condition before they become available for purchase. After showing [[Knight Man]] 35 [[Noble Nickel]]s, a [[Lightning Lord]] known as the "Costume Lord" will appear outside the Costume Shop. When spoken to, it will offer a random hint towards unlocking a costume that hasn't been unlocked yet (if one exists).

The game itself is inconsistent on whether the costumes are simply that — costumes — or actually changing the player into the character in question. When reentering the costume shop, Roll will greet the player with the costume's name in scare quotes as if she's merely playing along; on the other hand, if Mega Man wears a costume that matches the identity of an NPC, that NPC will disappear while wearing that costume. For example, equipping [[Hornet Man]]'s costume will make Hornet Man disappear from [[Tier 3 (MaGMML2)|Tier 3]]. The exceptions to this are [[Metall|Met]] and [[Doctor Thomas Light|Dr. Light]], who still appear in [[Tier 10 (MaGMML2)|Tier 10]] and the lab, respectively. Additionally, wearing any costume other than Mega Man (with or without his helmet) causes him to appear near the entrance to Tier 3. The exception to this is Roll, in which case Rock will run the costume shop in her absence.

Due to a bug, defeating [[Wily Machine SWORD]] in the [[Reality Core]] stage will automatically remove the player's costume, reverting them to Mega Man. This does not happen if the player battles Wily Machine SWORD via the Boss Gallery in the [[Dojo]].

Many costumes provide unique dialogue with certain NPCs. A good amount of them also change the sprites for utilities, such as the [[Rush Coil]], [[Rush Jet]], and [[Sakugarne]]. They still function identically, however.

Several of the game's costumes were created via community submissions; perhaps unsurprisingly, a sizeable chunk of them are Mega Man edits of varying complexity.

==''Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero''==
Only two costumes are available, and both can be purchased from [[Reggae]] in [[Dr. Wily's Secret Bunker]] for 250 bolts each. One of these is the Hooded Costume, Zero's hooded disguise in ''Make a Good Mega Man Level 2'', and the other is the Original Costume, which gives Zero his original ''Mega Man X'' series design and uses his sprites from ''Mega Man Xtreme 2''. When starting a new game, the option to start with the Original Costume is provided, while a code can allow the player to start with the Hooded Costume; in either case, the default costume (known as the Hasty Costume) becomes available for purchase in their place.

==''Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level''==
In ''[[Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level]]'', costumes can be purchased and equipped from Double Action Boutique, a shop run by [[Bol'o and Nu'o]] on the [[SS Elroy]]. However, the shop is inaccessible until at least 7 [[Energy Element]]s have been obtained. None of the available costumes are locked, though the selection is mostly made up of returning ''MaGMML2'' costumes, with only two brand new ones.

Unlike past games, ''MaG48HMML'' is more definitive with costumes being nothing more than costumes – in addition to Proto Man referring to the player in scare quotes if they're wearing a costume (and Bass calling out the player if talked to while using the Bass costume), the conclusion to the Bootcamp Graduation [[Sidequests|sidequest]] has the player's character tell [[Sarge]] that they're really Mega Man if they happen to be wearing a costume. Additionally, altered dialogue in response to costumes is scarce compared to ''MaGMML2'' beyond altered pronouns and physical descriptors. There are a few exceptions to the rule – the Mega Man (Hair) and Rock costumes share the same dialog pools as the default Mega Man costume (as both represent Mega Man), while using the Roll costume will prompt Rock to take her place in Dr. Light's cabin, complete with alternate dialogue.

In addition to altered Rush utilities and palettes, ''MaG48HMML'''s costumes have unique [[Mega Buster]] graphics; however, their hitboxes aren't changed despite how big or small they may be.

The Proto Man Mode and Bass Mode cheats once again disable costumes; although Double Action Boutique can still be accessed for the Love Survivor sidequest, costumes cannot even be purchased. Additionally, save files with either cheat active will replace the costume total icon with Proto Man/Bass's head while giving credit for all costumes, regardless of how many have actually been bought.

==''Make a Good Mega Man Level 3''==
The Costume Shop, run by [[Maker Man]], is located on the second floor Plaza of the [[Victor Heights]] hotel. The number of costumes available has expanded greatly from ''MaGMML2''; to that end, the Proto Man, Bass, and Roll costumes are now available by default without needing to be bought. The option to use Custom Costumes is also available at the start, although it still needs to be purchased for 200 bolts. Like Double Action Boutique in ''MaG48HMML'', the shop has a side area filled with gimmicks and nooks that can be used to see a costume's various animations. Below Maker Man is a mirror that will trigger a unique dialogue box depending on the current costume.

The Costume Lord returns as a hint system for unlocking costumes, but it will not appear until Mega Man has earned six [[Tier Rank]]s.

==Custom Costumes==
:''Main article: [[Custom Costumes]]''
Custom Costumes are a unique subset of costumes that are unlocked in ''MaGMML2'' by speaking to Knight Man after obtaining 100 Noble Nickels, in ''MaGMML1R'' by buying them at the Costume Shop for 200 bolts, in ''MaG48HMML'' by buying them at Double Action Boutique for 200 bolts and in ''MaGMML3'' by buying them at Maker Man's Costume Shop, also for 200 bolts. As the name implies, they can be either designed by the player themselves with the appropriate template, or downloaded from their respective page on the wiki.

In ''MaGMML2'', Custom Costumes may or may not have access to alternate weapons and can have unique sprites for the Rush Coil, Rush Jet, and/or Sakugarne. They cannot be set to have unique "READY" sprites or dialogue with NPCs however. In ''MaGMML1R'', Custom Costumes can have unique Rush palettes, while from ''MaG48HMML'' onwards each utility may have a unique palette. ''MaG48HMML'' also introduces the option to use unique Mega Buster graphics. ''MaGMML3'' greatly expands the options available to Custom Costumes, including how fast their idle animation plays, the colour of their charge palette, and even the sound effects used for them via external sound files.

'''Magnum Man''' is the seventh and final level of the [[MaGMML3 Judge Application Levels|''MaGMML3'' Judge Application Levels]]. [[ACESpark]] designed the level as a test to see if judges would be unduly kind to a level that had custom assets; as such, the level had minimal testing, and the result was predictably sloppy. While many people believe the level to be a parody of the ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 2]]'' entry [[Sheriff Man (stage)|Sheriff Man]]—Sheriff having no gimmick at all and Magnum having clunky and overbearing gimmicks—ACE had conceived Magnum Man before the events of ''MaGMML2'', and claims all resemblance is coincidental.

Wow, this is a very aesthetically-pleasing level! Along with well composed music, and custom assets, this feels genuinely
like a Megaman level.

The stage does an excellent job at introductions, each new enemies are showcased by their own at the beginning in safe
environments, the first instance of the magnum gimmick is introduced in a way that allow player to experiment with it freely,
before testing them out on actual challenges.

It is not entirely about the gimmicks, as there are also normal combat areas in between, which is good to keep each of the
challenges diverse and interesting. Later on another new gimmick is brought into the mix, the springboard, while doesn't really
fit the whole wild west theme, does make for some unique platforming with its familiar yet very different behavior.

The difficulty curve was done right, things begin simple and gradually become more difficult as it should. The extra challenges
with the gems are also within' reasonable difficulty from the rest of the level.

Magnum Man himself is a very fun boss fight. His attacks are telegraphed and easy to learn, you can find a way to dodge most
of his attacks very quickly and consistently except! When right after his upward shots, he sometimes do a short hop instead of
leaping all the way into your position, causing you to slide faceplant into him. Otherwise, he's not all too tricky but the
battle is still engaging enough. (Also while you can't freeze Magnum Man himself with the Flash Stopper, you can freeze his
projectiles, creating amusing results)

Though, there are still things I want to nitpick about. The level consists some annoying enemy placements. For example, there's one
room with the tank enemy that requires very tight timing to get through unharmed without using special weapons; In the last room
just before the boss corridor, there is the little pistol guy that is hard to lure out to shoot it safely.

Checkpoints are placed well, but they're not very clearly indicated as most of them put you right at the start of the session,
without an extra empty room. Not really a big deal, again, it's just a nitpick of mine.

In the end, this is a very solid entry. It wouldn't be out-of-place in an official Megaman game, with how the graphics and music
as well as the level design go. A very polished and impressive level overall!

This stage is also a good stage, overall. The stage has taken a custom gimmick, namely the bullet platforms fired from the revolvers, and builds the stage around them. It introduces them in a safe environment, before expanding into using the gimmick to progress in the stage, as well as navigate to collect the diamonds.
The overall aesthetic of the stage is wonderful, apart from some small background issues and a slightly unfitting enemy in the form of the tank.
The only other issues are the spikes that don't seem to act like spikes, as well as a lack of differentiation between revolvers that fire a different amount of bullets, some slight route confusion, and some very minor collision issues with the extending platforms teleporting pickups.

The Wild West aesthetics are flawless, the new enemies are cute, the gimmicks are cool, the platforming is challenging, the boss is fun, and yet…
Well, look at the robo-vaquero. When it was first introduced, I fawned over the cute Colton variant with a poncho and homing shots! When it started showing up in tandem with the other gimmicks, the novelty started to wear off. When it started shooting bullets through a wall and at an angle perpendicular to the muzzle… well, not to get all “grassy knoll” on you, but that’s not how guns work.
This is indicative of the stage’s larger problem: the individual assets are cool, but they actually detract from one another when used in tandem. The biggest offender here are the springs, which I don’t think were used well even once in the screen after their introduction. And… what exactly do big springs have to do with cowboys or guns?
It’s a shame, because the segments where the level takes one gimmick and runs with it are awesome. I love the room with the three guns right before the boss gate, for instance, and Magnum Man himself is an incredibly fun fight. But whenever the stage tries to use two or more elements at the same time, the quality takes a noticeable drop. A damn shame, given how great the individual pieces are.

Holy hello kitty, I knew the wild west was tough, but this is really tough. Now, I can clearly see that a lot of effort was put into original enemies, tilesets, and gimmicks. But all that effort can only carry you so far without a stage that is well designed. Even on the first screen, it becomes apparent that enemies will get thrown at you without any real warning. This can lead to some quite brutal sections, and that combined with the gimmicks can be very overwhelming.
But lets talk about the gimmicks, shall we? Firstly we have the giant guns that shoot bullets you can stand on. More often than not, I found myself either getting hit while standing on them, or in one section, I just got outright crushed while they collided with a wall. Then there are these weird bouncy springs. Not only did I clip through the ground once, but they are just not very well thought out in my opinion. Seeing them and immediately after having to do some precise jumps to avoid spikes seems like a harsh spike in difficulty.
The fight with Magnum Man is…pretty brutal as well. One of his moves becomes almost impossible to dodge if he manages to corner you even a bit, which happens more than you would like. His attacks generally come out really fast, and don’t give much time to react or even think.
Generally, the effort that went into the asthetics of this stage could have been put to better use in the level design department. No matter how good a stage looks, if it is frustrating to play, whats the point?
|flashscore = 74
|flash = The Good: Custom assets that look professional, evocative music that fits the level well, several fun and clever challenges, generally smooth learning curve

The Bad: Inconsistent theming, lots of clutter, too many enemy types

The Ugly: Problematic level layout, some spikes aren’t even spikes, a deadly and easy-to-trigger glitch

From the very first screen, this looks and sounds like it could be an official Capcom level. I’m a sucker for Westerns, too, so this level started off at an advantage—which gradually slipped away as more and more problems became apparent.

At first glance, everything seems totally fine. All the custom enemies, gimmicks, and tiles look and feel perfectly at home in a Mega Man game, and they work together with the music to develop a strong sense of theme. New types of challenges are introduced fairly, with only a few mild exceptions (eg, the exploding bullet enemies are a bit of a surprise). The oversized revolvers and springboard platforms are really creative and used extremely well, and there’s a satisfying boss fight at the end. Level length feels a mite long but within acceptable parameters, and the frequency of checkpoints and power-ups is just right. If we left it at that, this would be a dynamite level.

Upon closer inspection, however, there’s a disappointing lack of focus in the enemy and gimmick selection. When I remember the Alamo, I certainly don’t remember Electric Gabyoalls. Tanks in the desert I can understand, but tanks in Tombstone? When did John Wayne ever ride into the sunset on a Tondeall? For a few dollars more, would Clint Eastwood have agreed to a shootout on bouncy platforms? This is Mega Man we’re talking about, and tradition dictates that it’s OK to include a few elements that don’t strictly fit the level theme, but Magnum Man takes it a little too far. Not only are these miscellaneous elements disruptive of the otherwise fantastic atmosphere created by the themed assets, but they clutter the enemy roster to the point where several enemies only appear once—or twice, if they don’t scroll themselves off the screen before you get to them.

This overabundance of different enemy types also contributes to a sense of clutter, which is amplified by the busy backgrounds. The graphics look very nice, yes, but there’s so much variety and fine detail that they tend to draw the focus away from the gameplay. There’s not quite enough of a gap between challenges to give the player a chance to properly appreciate the set pieces. The architecture is occasionally a contributing factor in that cluttered feel; for example, one screen toward the beginning has two random spikes underneath an oversized revolver for some reason (wouldn’t a regular wall have been enough of a deterrent to go that way?), and one screen toward the end has a gunman buried inside a wall above the screen entrance, which is pointless when the height advantage is already a deterrent to using any weapon that can’t pass through a wall.

I also got extremely confused about the level layout upon reaching the second Noble Nickel, which is sitting out in the open like it’s a perfunctory health refill. Special items like this are meant to be a reward for accomplishing something out of the ordinary, so I could only conclude that I had accidentally found a secret exit to the previous screen...but then I couldn’t backtrack out of the room, and the only way to progress was to walk through pillars that looked solid. This dropped me awkwardly into the middle of a scrolling section, but there was no indication whether I should go right or left. I arbitrarily went left (which is good, because right takes you to a pointless dead end), but it felt the whole time like I was backtracking through challenges I had inadvertently bypassed by choosing the path that led to the Nickel. As it turns out, the level is completely linear—and it’s a horrible feeling to be lost in a linear level.

That really soured the whole level for me, which is a shame, because there are so many parts that I adore. Individually, the majority of these challenges are well designed and highly memorable. Riding oversized bullets from place to place is a hoot, and combining that with sliding challenges is AWESOME. Likewise, bouncy gunfights (despite making no sense in the context of the level) are satisfyingly tricky, particularly when the gunmen’s bullets track you, and I approve of how the spike challenges take advantage of that momentarily delay between landing on the springboard and being launched into the air. All the Noble Nickels (save for the aforementioned second one) are exactly the right amount of difficult to obtain. The battle against Magnum Man is solid, and it’s neat to see him use a couple of the attacks you’ve been practicing against throughout the level. And like I said, this has the production values of a Capcom level.

Except...Capcom probably wouldn’t have left an entire floor of spikes as background decoration instead of actual spikes that cause you to explode on contact. And I suspect they would have playtested those springboard platforms more thoroughly—firing Super Arrow and especially Wheel Cutter at an extended platform leads to some interesting visual oddities, and it’s all too easy to get Mega Man stuck inside one...and then speedily shunted to the opposite end of the screen, where he explodes.

Other issues with the level may include the following: A few late-game challenges are decidedly easier than their earlier counterparts (eg, going from an unavoidably bouncy gunfight to a gunfight on the ground with a nearby springboard if you feel like using it). The background sometimes utilizes black rectangles (like on the checkpoint screen next to the boss chamber), which look less like holes or windows and more like...black rectangles. The fight with Magnum Man is aesthetically problematic; for one thing, his boss chamber is technically underground and shouldn’t have that desertscape in the background, and for another, his generic looks don’t help the inconsistent theming. Also, Flash Stopper freezes Magnum Man’s projectiles but not the boss himself, and Electric Gabyoalls don’t freeze when hit by a charge shot like they do in MM6, but those oddities may well be intentional. However, I will say that Magnum Man’s animations, especially the gun twirling, are pretty sweet.

There are the makings of a truly great level here, but the biggest shortcomings seriously belie the professionalism this level projects.

* The background music for this stage was originally composed by [[CosmicGem]] for the Sheriff Man stage in ''MaGMML2'', but it wasn't finished in time.

Ryminio: /* Story */

[[File:Magmml3_Logo.png|350px|thumb|right|The logo for the contest.]]
'''''Make a Good Mega Man Level 3''''' (or ''MaGMML3'' for short) is the third installment in the ''Make a Good Mega Man Level'' series, co-hosted by [[Mick Galbani]] and [[ACESpark]]. Like its predecessors, the game features community-created levels submitted as part of a level design contest. The contest is judged by Mick Galbani, ACESpark, [[Flashman85]], [[Pachy]], and [[Shinryu]]. Several elements from ''MaGMML2'', including [[costumes]] and [[the Pit of Pits]], have returned in ''MaGMML3''.

The 2018 contest officially began on September 22, with November 25 being the submission deadline. Participants are encouraged to join the [https://discordapp.com/invite/SEHjShy official ''MaGMML3'' Discord] for discussions and updates. The public beta for the [[Megamix Engine]], which serves as the basis for ''MaGMML3''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s engine, was released on July 11th, while its official full release was on September 15th, a week before the submission period. The full game was finally released on June 9th, 2024.

==Story==
At home, [[Mega Man]] and family are flipping through TV channels until they stop at one with "Ernest Will" announcing the "6th Worldwide Sponsored Robot Tournament". Across 15 tiers, robots of all kind can compete for a chance to enter "Ernest Stadium" and win insane cash prize. Realizing its [[Dr. Wily]] in an oblivious disguise, Mega Man is forced to enter to find out what the doctor is planning.

Arriving at Victor Heights, Mega Man slowly meets each of his competitors: the battle hungry warrior bot [[Hunter Woman]], an arrogant speedster and daredevil [[Presto]], the grounded union worker bot [[Forge Woman]], the scrapyard fighter bot [[Cerberus Man]], and unintelligible dark horse weather bot [[Element Man]].

After clearing 1 Tier, Wily drops the Ernest disguise to Light and Mega Man to reveal that the events of the last game were perpetuated by someone else who stole his Reality Core. He formed the current tournament to lure out the culprit, and asks for a truce with Mega Man to catch them.

Clearing 5 Tiers has the culprit reveal himself: [[Dr. Regal|Dr. Reginald Regal]], a madman whose obsessions with the simulations had himself kicked out of the committee. Regal reveals he made the Wily decoy to keep everyone's eyes off him. When he tries to use the Reality Core to erase Mega Man, it turns into confetti and quickly flees. Each subsequent cutscene reveals himself to be rather incompetent and unoriginal without meaningfully adding to the ideas he takes from, all his attempts to hijack the contest being foiled by his own poor design, and attempts to team up with Cerberus Man ending with the scrap bot mauling him.

After clearing all 15 Tiers, Regal plays his last hand, a "hostage" situation involving a Pipi mistaken for [[Beat]], a cardboard cutout of Eddie mistaken for the real one, and a disqualified competitor named [[Princess]] mistaken for Roll is foiled by Wily and Mega Man, who team up to get Dr. Regal out of the picture before the finals of the tournament. When Regal summons a fortress to hide within, the two storm his fortress and tear it apart, with Regal's [[Regal Machine|ultimate war machine]] being quickly destroyed and Regal himself banished to an unknown location. With the threat put out of commission, the final ceremonies for the tournament begin.

During the final ceremonies, one of the finalists, [[Bass]], claims Mega Man cheated because some of the Tier Ranks he obtained were illegitimate (Regular Joe finding the Rank in the trash, Dr. Vicious and Hyena acting as a substitute due to Ignorance being frozen, the Tier 7 Boss not even being there). "Ernest" checks Mega Man's ranks, but states they're legitimate before disqualifying Bass. When the other finalists complain about the Tournament being rigged, Wily drops the disguise and states the prize is real, waiting for them within his "Wily Stadium". As Mega Man travels through the gauntlet, he runs into Bass again, who while fighting him reveals that Mega Man was supposed to be disqualified and humiliated because of the way he obtained the Ranks, but Wily backed out at the last moment.

After defeating the other finalists and having one last chat with [[Proto Man]] (who forfeits to Mega Man), Mega Man reaches Wily in the center of Wily Stadium. Wily reveals that while he did originally plan to humiliate Mega Man, Wily realized while the two of them were fighting Regal that his original plan was too cheap and wanted to challenge him fairly. Operating [[Wily Machine SPIRE|his most powerful machine yet]], Mega Man and Wily do battle, with the Blue Bomber coming out on top. However, the crowd cheers for both. Dr. Light walks onto the field and explains Wily always was a good showman, admitting defeat in that regard. Realizing people actually love him because of this, and that he has something he's superior to Dr. Light at, he vows to keep the world entertained by doing similar feats of spectacle, with Mega Man agreeing to that to uphold everlasting peace.

After Mega Man collects every Energy Element from the 15 basic Tiers and Wily Stadium, Dr. Regal uses his Wily decoy's head to attract Mega Man's attention to his latest scheme: to unearth an ancient evil from the Grey Isles, a region of space-time where the laws of reality are in flux, which he hopes will be as strong as the Reality Core. Traveling to the Grey Isles, Mega Man passes various trials designed to keep intruders away from where the evil sleeps, the [[Shrine of Nebula]]. After entering the Shrine, Mega Man confronts Regal as he awakens [[Nebula Grey]], an incarnation of evil who was sealed away millennia ago. However, due to its exposure to human radio and TV broadcasts, Nebula Grey has renounced its evil ways, much to the dismay of Dr. Regal who is sent away sulking. However, due to the Shrine of Nebula's security systems, Nebula Grey is forced to fight Mega Man to burn off its Dark Power to trick the system into thinking it's been put to rest again, so the both of them can leave the Shrine. After Mega Man defeats Nebula Grey, it takes on a smaller form so it can explore the world.

==History==
During the development of ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 2|MaGMML2]]'', host [[snoruntpyro]] made the decision that she would not host the next contest, citing the stresses of hosting and a desire to participate in the next contest as reasons for stepping down. Mick Galbani, a community favorite for the position, stepped up to host ''MaGMML3''. Planning for the third game began even before the second game was released, and a community feedback poll following the release of ''MaGMML2'' was used to inform some of the planning for ''MaGMML3''.

On October 29, 2017, ACESpark was invited to co-host and judge ''MaGMML3'', based on the overwhelmingly positive response to his contributions to the second game. Applications for the remaining three judge slots were announced on November 6, 2017.<ref>http://magmmlcontest.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=70</ref> In Stage 1 of the application process, applicants were given three weeks to judge the seven [[MaGMML3 Judge Application Levels|''MaGMML3'' Judge Application Levels]], providing written comments and rating the levels based on a rubric. Of the 19 applicants, 11 moved on to Stage 2, where they submitted a sample of their Mega Man level design ability—either a level designed specifically for the application, or one they had already created. The submission deadline for Stage 2 was December 23, 2017; within 24 hours, Stage 2 applicants received a notification of the results, accompanied by brief comments on why they were or were not selected. At the same time, it was announced to the public that [[Flashman85]], [[Pachy]], and [[Shinryu]] would be judging ''MaGMML3'' alongside Mick Galbani and ACESpark.

On August 24, 2018, the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/18mbHMqCaFaKAyO8ZBeHOFnm-BgraUA4skLEQdKst2p8 contest rules] were announced, along with every previous and current main series judge offering recommendations for the upcoming submissions. Notable rule changes include:
*The submission period has been extended by an undetermined amount. (announced on Discord only)
*The late submission period has been drastically reduced to 7 days.
*Minor edits of devkit levels, such as [[Ancient Tomb]], are no longer permitted.
*Noble Nickels have been replaced with Trickster Tokens, for which the per-level limit is still 5.
*Scoring is once again out of 100, with Creativity losing half of its original weight. Its 15 points were distributed evenly between Design, Fun, and Aesthetics.

On September 15, 2018, the devkit was released and the contest dates were announced.

On September 22, 2018, the submission form opened to the public, officially marking the opening of the contest.

On November 26, 2018, the deadline for submissions passed, though this was followed by a grace period where late submissions/resubmissions were accepted at the cost of a score penalty, the percentage of which increased with each day. This grace period ended at 11:59 EST on December 2, 2018.

On May 23, 2024, [[Shinryu]] uploaded the [https://youtube.com/PDsbxXFmIx4?si=h34FibSS-BKNATOQ game's release date trailer] on his YouTube channel, confirming its release date to be on June 9th of the same year.

== Entries ==
A total of 176 valid entries were submitted, with an additional 14 being excluded or pulled for various reasons. This makes ''Make a Good Mega Man Level 3'' the largest ''MaGMML'' contest to date.

===Disqualified Entries===
* [[Worthless Man]] was not ranked in the contest, as the level contained flashing lights that triggered migraines in both one of the judges, [[ACESpark]], and his proxy player, Loyana, preventing the former from giving the level a score.

===Excluded Entries===
*"QuintsMoonBase", "Black Terminus" and "Chase Sequence" were all pulled by their creators and replaced with new levels.
**"4'33"" was also pulled by its creator, though they did not submit a new level in its place.
*"Thrilling", "*NEW* EPIC BATTLE ROYALE MODE IN MEGA MAN!", "A Mess of a Stage", "USM", and "Cardinal Man III" were excluded for being troll levels. In addition, "USM" contained written NSFW content, "*NEW* EPIC BATTLE ROYALE MODE IN MEGA MAN!" contained a threatening message aimed at the judges, and "Cardinal Man III" contained areas prone to significant performance issues (e.g. slowdown).
**The creator of "USM" has released [https://www.dropbox.com/s/1fx6q59vc2kim1p/USM.exe?dl=0 a download of this entry for the devkit], along with [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf6R0c9A47k a video thorough detailing the entry and its easter eggs].
*"Curse of the Statuettes" was excluded for containing horribly broken screen transitions that were impossible to fix.
*"Boundless Network" and "Warehouse of Breakthroughs" were both excluded for containing custom or modified weapons (Boundless Network replaced the weapons system with a Battle Network chip weapon system, and Warehouse of Breakthroughs limited the player to a modified Break Dash).
*"22 Short Screens Without Sniper Joes" was excluded for containing an explicit drug reference (an image of Kermit the Frog snorting rows of cocaine).
*"Turbo Trickery Tower" was excluded for a high level of difficulty deemed malicious, with fundamental alterations necessary for the level to be accessible for the game's target audience.

==Special Weapons==
On November 23, 2017, the poll for the game's weapon set was opened, lasting for 2 weeks until it was closed on December 7, 2017.

==Hub==
The hub of the third game is even larger than the second. Rather than a festival hosted outside Dr. Light's Lab, it takes place within a large sprawling area, with the "Hub" itself being "Victor Heights", an inn where most of the story happens. Tiers can only be accessed by usage of the Brochure to travel to each Tier's Bus Stop.
This game's equivalent to "Chateau Chevaleresque" is the [[Magic Card Casino]] run by Magic Man, which not only hosts various NPCs to talk to, but offers a variety minigames for Bolts.

The '''Mega Mech Shark''' is a fortress boss from ''[[Mega Man 9]]'', fought at the end of the second Wily stage, and in the Special Stage as the final miniboss. True to its name, it is a gigantic robot shark; large enough that the battle against it is split into three parts, each part focusing on an individual part of the body.

The Mega Mech Shark is one of the devkit bosses present in the [[Megamix Engine]], and is set to appear as a devkit boss in ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 3]]''. It is also the final boss of the engine's Example Game if the difficulty is set to Hard. In ''[[Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level]]'', it appears as the boss of [[Water Park Sup]] (where only the tail is fought), [[Minari Hydrospace Center]], and [[Planet Xanlordus]]. The same game also features it as an NPC in [[Tier 9 (MaG48HMML)|Tier 9]], where it uses a [[Costumes|costume]] of Tundra Man.

==Battle==
[[File:MaGMML3 MegaMechShark.png|thumb|right|The full sprite of the Mega Mech Shark.]]
The Megamix Engine allows more freedom with how the Mega Mech Shark is used; the phases can be combined in unique ways (such as having four middle segments, or a second tail in the place of a head), and they can even function simultaneously if used in a longer room. All phases will slowly bob up and down during the battle.

===Tail===
The tail will start the battle by opening a hatch (which is the weak point of the phase) and firing three homing missiles. The hatch will remain closed until all three missiles have either been destroyed or scrolled off-screen.

===Middle===
The middle of the body does not attack [[Mega Man]] directly; instead, it drops dolphin robots from its two dome-shaped hatches, which will move in Mega Man's direction. The dome-shaped hatches are the weak points of the phase, and health is split between the two.

===Head===
The head will periodically open its mouth to shoot four lasers before closing its mouth again. The weak point of this phase is its open mouth.

'''Abandoned Mine''' is the 97th place entry in ''[[Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level]]''. It is a rocky mineshaft-themed level whose main distinguishing feature is a split path, which contains a different midboss on each path. However, the two inevitably link up, and there is little other reason to take one path over the other. The level's other main claim to fame is as the first [[simulation]] to be vandalized by the [[Shadow Imposter]] during the Goody Two Shoes [[Sidequests|sidequest]], and thus the level to establish tracking them down.

==Strategy==
Not a lot of skill is required to complete this level, as the only enemies are easily dispatched [[Rock Thrown]]s, airborne [[Docbaton]]s that move slowly, and [[Shield Attacker]]s that won't turn around until they hit a wall. Much of the terrain is a simple straight line with wide open air, with enemies positioned in such a way that destroying them is easy. Halfway through the stage are a series of airborne [[X Platform]]s, and though it appears they lie over a bottomless pit, falling down merely takes [[Mega Man]] to an alternate path that is also largely a straight line. However, which midboss is faced depends on the taken path; by falling below the X Platforms, Mega Man must fight a [[Combiloid]] on a very large vertical boss door, while successfully jumping to the other side leads to a [[Stone Head]], as well as an E-Tank on some [[Rock Platform]]s. At the very end of the stage, Mega Man must fight [[Bomb Man|BombMan.EXE]] for the [[Energy Element]].

==Shadow Imposter Graffiti==
The Shadow Imposter's graffiti is located on the X Platform path, shortly after fighting Stone Head. While hunting for it, a Type C [[Shadow Turret]] flies across the top of the screen and periodically shoots at Mega Man. This turret can very easily snipe him while trying to jump across the X Platforms, knocking him to the alternate route and forcing him to restart the level, so using either the [[Flame Mixer]] to block the turret's shots or the [[Rush Jet]] to just fly across is recommended.

==Judge Comments==
{{JudgeComment48h
|parma=This really feels like a first level to me, if not a really early try. With that, I want to be generous, but there are some major pitfalls. Most importantly, you use your gimmicks once each, and the rock platform is optional for an E-Tank. When making a level you should take the gimmicks and explore and experiment with them; these just simply exist with no other challenge present. Try mixing them with enemies or with each other. Even if it doesn't turn out amazing the first time, just try stuff and hopefully something sticks! Also, if you're using the X platforms it's best to use visual indicators, but frankly with something this easy you don't really need it, although that would help your aesthetics score. Also, it's weird that the Shield Attackers have no stop points, so they just hit the walls. There's an object that stops them so that you can have more control over their movement. While this level is really underwhelming, I hope you learned a lot from making it, and I hope to see you make another level in the future!

|pk=Even with two paths, it felt so short. It lacked a lot of substance, and most things just felt...there. The bats, for example, were just there to look pretty, I feel. They never really posed a threat, if you just kept moving. And to keep in line with the short level, I'll keep this short as well (mostly because there's not much more to add).

|m-jacq=Let's just get this out of the way: the box usage in this level is really, really bad. You can completely miss one of the gimmicks on a normal playthrough, where it's used on all of one screen as the tiniest possible complication to get to an E-tank. But the big problem with this level is how EMPTY it is. Even with a split path, the level feels totally void of anything, let alone challenge. There are bats in the air, but they just kind of float there... there are some Shield Attackers that pose more of a threat but only because they can occasionally ambush you, not because the setups with them are interesting. It really is a level that's just... there.

|freems=I'm not sure if you remembered that you had box gimmicks, because I barely did. Both platform types appear in a whopping one area each, and the rock one is on an optional path! So does the rest of the level make up for the lack of these platforms? No. Boring enemy placement with bats that hardly ever matter if you're not slowing down to look at the slightly mangled Hard Man textures and Shield Attackers put in a way to slam right into you on screen transition. The fact that there are alternate paths is baffling to me because not only does it add nothing to the level, but if you take the lower half there's no midway checkpoint at all since the checkpoint room just so happens to be part of the upper path. I guess Bomb Man put on a cool costume? But really that's the only memorable thing I could tell you about this one.

{{quote|It feels like this was made by a machine.|[[SnoruntPyro]]|excerpt from judge comment.}}
'''Joe Man''' is the 40th place entry in [[Make a Good Mega Man Level 2]], created by Zieldak. The level focuses on explosives, and obstacles that block [[Mega Man|Mega Man's]] projectiles. Fitting its name and boss, every enemy in the level is a variant of a signature Mega Man enemy; specifically Mets, Sniper Joes, and Shield Attackers.

==Strategy==
The level starts with a simple outdoor area with Mets and Neo Heli Metalls. Going indoors, Mega Man finds another Met, as well as the level's first Shooter Joe. If Mega Man goes to the right instead of going up, he will find himself in a room where two Mets guard the first Noble Nickel. Climbing up normally, Mega Man will be greeted with a Shield Attacker TRL and a Grenader Joe, which cannot be shot from the ladder due to an indestructible wall. Following this is an introduction to Count Bombs, positioned over solid ground.

The next room has multiple Mets, Neo Heli Metalls, and Shield Attacker TRLs, with a Shooter Joe and two paths at the end. Going to the upper path leads to the second Noble Nickel, guarded by two Mets, a Shooter Joe, and a Shield Attacker TRL, and the latter will hit Mega Man if he doesn't wait to climb to the top of the ladder. Going down leads to a room with another Grenader Joe, which is harder to defeat because of a Shield Attacker TRL that will catch Mega Man if he jumps at the wrong time. Going down again leads to a room with more Count Bombs, now made tricker by the presence of enemies, and in the case of the first two, a bed of spikes. An E-Tank and a small screw can be collected by doing a tricky jump off the final Count Bomb. Following this is a boss gate, leading to the [[Joe Mob]].

After defeating the Joe Mob and going through the next room, Mega Man is introduced to mines that explode shortly after he makes contact with them, introduced by a Shield Attacker TRL that flies past a group of them and sets them all off before they can damage Mega Man. Going to the right leads to the third Noble Nickel, which is guarded by a Shooter Joe and two Shield Attacker TRLs, as well as three mines and a spike ceiling on the lower half of the room. Going up leads to two rooms that utilize indestructible blocks, mines, Count Bombs, and spikes at the same time, with an E-Tank being guarded by a tricky set of Count Bomb jumps. After a simpler room with two Shield Attacker TRLs and two mines, Mega Man must traverse a pair of rooms with several Count Bombs and a few Neo Heli Metalls.

The next room has an alternate route to its left, where a series of Count Bomb jumps below spikes lead to an empty room with the fourth Noble Nickel, after which Mega Man will have to use the same Count Bomb jumps to get back on the main route. The main route of this room focuses on combining mines with jumps over bottomless pits, with a Grenader Joe preceding it, and a couple of Shooter Joes in-between. The boss gate is at the end of this room, with [[Eddie]] there to give Mega Man an item before the fight against [[Joe Man]].

After defeating Joe Man, a hole is blown in the right wall of the room, leading to another room where Mega Man can choose to either end the level right away by collecting the [[Energy Element]], or fight Joe Man R, with the boss gate leading to the latter having a Yashichi in front of it. If Joe Man R is defeated, a hole is blown in the right wall of his room as well, leading to a reward of two E-Tanks, a massive screw, and another gate that leads to a room with the final Noble Nickel, and a giant mural of [[I Feel It]]. The teleporter in the room housing the screw and E-Tanks takes Mega Man back to the room with the Energy Element.

{{JudgeComment2
|pyro = This is really bizarre. The level is well-designed, it has a proper difficulty curve, it introduces its elements properly, it's professional, it feels like Mega Man....but it's just so BORING. The level is just so...dull and bland. All enemies in the level are variations of Mets, Sniper Joes, and Shield Attackers. Nothing else. The three most generic enemies you could possibly pick. There's mines, I guess, but those have been done before (see MMU), and there's time bombs, but those have been in like every fangame ever. There are a few clever setups - I like the bajillion time bomb + 2 copter met rooms - but the rest of the level is just an extremely basic difficulty curve. There's really nothing interesting. Oh, you have to do a really annoying jump between two time bombs under spikes to get a Noble Nickel. But that's about it. The boss is pretty dull, too, it's just...the attacks of the level's enemies, except in a boss. The bonus boss is even dumber because it's basically the original boss except with three health bars and like one new attack that isn't hard to dodge. It doesn't help that the bonus boss hits like a truck and will kill you quickly if you mess up at all. Like...the level feels like, it was churned out of a factory or something. It's really dull and bland and doesn't have any charm or anything really creative going for it, but there IS proper design. It feels like it was made by a machine.

|jupi = This level felt like something straight out of Mega Man 10, with awesome graphics. The miniboss is a fun kill room full of the different types of Sniper Joes. However, there are some unfair enemy placements, mostly with the Shield Attackers. There are a few right after screen transitions that are very hard to avoid (spikes/low ceiling above you so you can't jump over, pit in front of you so you can't slide under, coming towards you so you can't kill them without Flash Stopper) unless you know they're there beforehand.
Joe Man himself was an alright battle, but his attacks do a LOT of damage. Joe Man R was just Joe Man with multiple health bars and a few more attacks, which was disappointing. I would have liked to see a boss with Sniper Joe's forms (mech, copter etc.)

|enjl = Honestly what keeps me from really liking this level is the fact it's not designed around being beatable with Slash Claw only. That would've been such a cool detail, come on! In all fairness, though, this level does a pretty good job at following the formula it's designed by. It properly introduces all of its assets in a safe manner and ramps up its difficulty until you get to the boss, and even beyond that. My one problem is... the boss is a good analogy for the level. The first encounter being the first half, and the 2nd being the 2nd half: It's the same thing, but with an element or two extra and a much higher risk of failure. I really liked the first half of this level, but after that I got slightly bored, as the mines didn't add much to the level's structure and the upwards climb was the part that stood out most about the second half, though I wasn't a big fan of that part. The level ended up feeling repetitive, felt like areas I've already been through, and the same applies for the boss rematch. The Nickel locations in this level are pretty silly. There are some hazards in the stage that I feel were placed unfairly, and most of them (not all of them) are within Nickel nooks. The fourth Nickel in particular contains a spike jump that is very easy to fail, and due to how the level places its checkpoints it takes quite a while to get back to it. Overall I wish the level added another element in its second half, preferrably one that's not scattered across the floor in abundance near the end.

|garirry = I think this is one of the few levels that legitimately frustrated me. It's filled with Sniper Joes and other shielded enemies that require extreme patience and timing in order to defeat without taking damage. Often, you can't do it so you end up with all your health lost after a short while. It doesn't help that there is a lack of checkpoints here. I guess using the Slash Claw helps, but most enemies will attack you from far away. What bothers me the most is how insanely difficult the extra boss is; he's practically unbeatable if you don't use E-Tanks. This really could have been a good level. But the awful level design ruins it.

|gafunnote = I don't know. The amount of times you die to practically unavoidable enemies and how often you have to pause and wait for the enemy to lower its shield ruins it. Extra boss is piss-poor.
|gacreativitynote = I guess it's pretty interesting still. But it's nothing too special either. Nothing to say here tbh.
|gaaestheticsnote = Graphics and music are very good.
|gafunctionnote = Works just fine.
|ace = You started well. Nice tileset, if a little generic, the few new custom assets are good, if generic, decent selection of gimmicks, even if they are also a little generic, and pleasant enough music.... which is also pretty generic now that I think about it. Overall, solid, pretty well built stage, if not the most memorable thing in the world. It dragged a little, and I rather hated the miniboss for how redundant it was, but still...
Some of the rooms were great, your use of Count Platforms combined with Flying Mets was pretty clever, and you usually placed Reflection Blocks in really good locations.
We had what was a great cap to your stage - your Robot Master - aside from what is possibly a hitbox that is too large, his attacks had conveyance throughout the stage, his pattern was fair, good variety to the fight, and overall he was enough of a challenge to be fun.
Your 4th Noble Nickel was probably a bit too hard for its own good, the count bombs needed to be about 16 pixels lower than they are currently, honestly.
All this sounds positive so far, right? Just a few nitpicks and the like. Where'd you drop the ball then? Taking everything into account.. that would be your SECOND Robot Master.

Oh. Oh dear. Erm, you kind of went overboard, this thing left a rather bitter taste in my mouth. 3 health bars? On a boss that is almost completely invincible about 75% of the time? Ok, that alone, is stupid. But it's a three phase boss fight, so ok, maybe three health bars are fine, provided each phase is different enough. Surely the fact that you can't hit it most of the time is taken into account. But no. Your first phase is, literally, a COPY of the first Robot Master..... just why. Why are you making us redo the exact thing we did just 10 seconds ago? The later forms have attacks where, he's just completely invincible for eons, and the only really good way to beat him before the heat death of the universe is to use the weakness. This just kills it. Everything here is bumped up into frustration levels and hits areas of tedium that I did not know was possible for a Mega Man boss whose name doesn't end in the word ""Devil"".
Also, you probably should've put a sign after that boss, because I was left scratching my head for which direction I should head in for that Nickel, because I feared I'd lose my progress by choosing wrong. (If you as a player is reading this review before beating this stage, go right, not up.)
