The Rocket is a gimmick in Make a Good Mega Man Level 2, found in Launch Man & Shuttle Man, and the Tier X stages Deep Thoughts and Wily Fortress VR. It is a long rocket that either flies into the air from pits, or falls to the ground after being launched.

Behavior

Rockets appear from pits at regular intervals, flying up into the air and off the top of the screen. If Mega Man touches a Rocket, he will receive damage and may possibly fall into the pit from which it appeared. Nothing can destroy a Rocket, with all projectiles being reflected; even the Rush Jet if it touches it.

Wily Fortress VR adds a modified version of the Rocket; one that falls from the air directly above Mega Man and explodes upon hitting solid terrain. This explosion is capable of damaging Mega Man if he runs into it. In the background, this type of Rocket can be seen flying into the air from the background, telegraphing when it will fall down on the foreground. Like the original Rocket, this type is completely indestructible.
