"Blizzard Man's weakness was changed to Tengu Blade because I thought the fight was more fun that way."

―TRICKSTERhat/zEn, providing a response as to why Blizzard Man's weakness was changed in Air Labs.

TRICKSTERhat (formerly known as "Zen/zEn/magicalZen", "IrrelevantMage", "Kirby with Ice Cream", and many other aliases) is a sprite artist, game developer, and user on the Sprites INC forums. She has been slightly involved in the Mega Man fandom since 2018, with the cancelled fangame Mega Man (Not So) Endless as an example.

TRICKSTERhat (under the "zEn" alias) made the 78th place level Air Labs for Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level as well as the 103rd place level The King's Lair for Make a Good Mega Man Level 3.

Outside of her contributions to the MaGMML series, she has worked as a video editor, as well as creating the game jam title Overheat, her only published game so far.

Trivia

• TRICKSTERhat has several unfinished entries for other MaGMML titles, including unfinished levels for Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero, the upcoming MaGMML3's Neo Pit of Pits, as well as Judge application level for MaGMML3. However, only images of the Episode Zero level exist.
• TRICKSTERhat went through several characters to portray herself, such as Riolu, Black Mage, Tengu Man, MagicMan.EXE, a Kirby with ice cream, an edited Mega Man Infamous Intent sprite, which has since been repurposed into Zen, her former sona and OC, and hat-bot, her current sona.
• When representing herself, she often uses the same hat, to the point that it is theorized she may be a hat with robot arms. (This is a joke. Talking hats with robot arms don't exist... unfortunately.)
