{{quote|Astral enemy projection. Enemy silhouettes seep through and periodically drop out.|Note in Astro Wall's code|[[Megamix Engine]]}}
The '''Astro Wall''' is a gimmick from ''[[Mega Man & Bass]]'', found in Astro Man's stage. It is a wall-mounted scrolling projection system that can create enemies from the silhouettes that decorate it.

Astro Walls were first made available with the [[Megamix Engine]], and subsequently the devkits for ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level 3]]'' and ''[[Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level]]''.

==Behavior==
When placed in a section, an Astro Wall will appear spanning the length of it. Silhouettes of enemies appear on the wall, and at regular intervals, one such silhouette will be transformed into a physical version of the enemy it represents, appearing from the wall with a ripple effect. As such, it is capable of surprise attacks.

Astro Walls have numerous creation code variables:
* entityXSpeed - The horizontal speed of the silhouettes on an Astro Wall.
* entityYspeed - The vertical speed of the silhouettes on an Astro Wall.
* dropInterval - The length of the interval between enemy drops.
* spawnDensity - The number of silhouttes per block.
* spawnList - The list of enemies to spawn. By default, an Astro Wall can spawn [[Metall]]s, [[Mechakkero]]s, [[Yambow]]s, and [[Furaibon]], but by adding "spawnList[#] = (enemy)" in creation code, any entity can be spawned.
* rippleAnimationInterval - The number of frames between each frame of a spawning enemy's ripple animation.
* rippleAnimationSprite - The sprite used for the ripple effect created when an enemy spawns.

If multiple Astro Walls exist in a section, only one Astro Wall object's creation code variables will be recognised.

 * As of the current Megamix Engine build, Astro Walls are prone to causing immense slowdown when placed directly next to the left of a screen transition/border object.
