- "He who hesitates is lost!"
- ―Bass, Mega Man 7
Bass, known as Forte in Japan, is a Robot Master created by Dr. Wily to imitate Mega Man's design, along with Treble, an imitation of Rush's design. He was created based on a research conducted on Mega Man with the intention of surpassing his power sometime during or before the events of Mega Man 6, and made his debut in Mega Man 7. Bass is the prominent anti-hero of the classic Mega Man series, and his goal is to become the most powerful robot in existence. Although Bass and Mega Man are rivals, at times they team up to take down mutual enemies of the two. Despite being created by Dr. Wily, Bass frequently rebels against his creator, usually for his own purposes.
In the original Make a Good Mega Man Level, Bass appears as an NPC in Dr. Light's Lab after collecting 16 Energy Elements; Make a Good Mega Man Level Remastered also adds him as a purchasable costume. He reappears in Make a Good Mega Man Level 2 as an NPC in the main hub, and is one of the few costumes that can be bought from the start. He appears once again in Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero, this time as an NPC in Dr. Wily's Secret Bunker, and as usual he voices his frustrations with Wily's plans.
Bass Mode
Bass is a playable character in both Make a Good Mega Man Level 2 and Make a Good Mega Man Level Remastered through the "Bass Mode" cheat. When active, Bass will replace Mega Man and function identically to his Mega Man 10 appearance. His Bass Buster can be rapid-fired in seven directions, but unlike Mega Man he cannot use Charge Shots, run while firing, or shoot through walls. Additionally, his slide is replaced with a dash that gives Bass extra momentum if he jumps forwards after using it. Unlike Mega Man & Bass, however, Bass cannot double jump.
When the Bass Mode cheat is active, the Costume Shop is closed, preventing Bass from changing costumes.
