The Rolling Drill is a gimmick in Mega Man 5, found in Napalm Man's stage. It is a large machine with several sharp spikes at the front.

Rolling Drills were first made available in the devkit for the original Make a Good Mega Man Level contest, where they appeared in the entries Chroma Key and Maze of Death, as well as the Final Stage.

Rolling Drills returned in Make a Good Mega Man Level 2, where they appeared in the entry Guts Man's Asteroid, as well as the Tier X stage Null and Void and the Pit of Pits sub-levels "Ground Eater" and "You know the Drill." Null and Void also includes a unique downward-facing variant.

Behavior

Rolling Drills will simply move straight forward. While contact with the sides is lethal, Mega Man can stand on the top.

Starting in MaGMML2, Rolling Drills can destroy terrain and enemies in front of them. Null and Void's downwards-facing Rolling Drill does not destroy terrain, but it does destroy enemies.
