The current plot is as follows: In the year 20XX, the world comes under attack by Dr. Wily's latest Robot Masters, but he claims that they [[Not Me This Time|went out of his control]]. Upon hearing his plight, Dr. Light accepts his assistance. Both scientists discover that an unknown force is controlling them. However, Mega Man suddenly gets attacked by a mysterious robot, which kidnaps Dr. Wily afterwards. As such, Mega Man sets out to stop the Robot Masters' rampage, [[Save the Villain|rescue Dr. Wily]] and take on the enigmatic robot responsible for these misdeeds.
Line 16:
* [[Bonus Boss]]: Yoku Man, technically speaking.
* [[Breather Level]]: Much debate has gone about this, but according to at least 1 forum post and the mock-up video of Tank Man's stage, his level may be the EASIEST to get through.
* [[The Brute]]: Tank Man, hands down.
* [[The Cameo]]: Hammer Man's use as a miniboss in the latest works, [[What Could Have Been|originally intended to be an actual Robot Master]] but was reworked into a [[Mini Boss]].
* [[Deflector Shields]]: Nail Shield seems to do this.
* [[Everything's Better with Rainbows]]: Rainbow Man's Rainbow Beam and shiny color-trippy level.
Line 30 ⟶ 32:
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Yo-yo Man's razor tipped yo-yos.
* [[Master of Illusion]]: Yoku Man and all the Yoku Blocks of doom.
* [[Nostalgia Level]]: Averted since the first beta screenshots came out but an earlier design of a mocked up level for Jet Man looked remarkably similar to Guts Man's level waaaaay back in the very first [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]] game.
* [[No OSHA Compliance]]: Nail Man's level fits this trope so well, being a half-finished sky-scraper and all.
* [[Nostalgia Level]]: Averted since the first beta screenshots came out but an earlier design of a mocked up level for Jet Man looked remarkably similar to Guts Man's level waaaaay back in the very first [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]] game.
* [[The Not-Secret]]: Played straight and averted. While no attempts are made whatsoever to hide Yoku Man's status as a secret character, all the important plot details have been kept confidential (well, except one, if anyone relies on the trope below).
* [[Off-Model]]: While the project's official artwork is otherwise fine, the way that the characters' fingers are drawn looks a bit...odd.
* [[One of the Boys]]: Comet Woman.
* [[Real Time Weapon Change]]: By using some controller commands, according to the forum, you can switch weapons on the fly.
* [[Scenery Porn]]: While much of the stages are still under construction, it can't be denied that Jet Man and Comet Woman's stages are definitely this. Then, there's the [http://megaphilx.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2rz4wd city shown] in the revamped intro sequence...
* [[Schedule Slip]]: The game was nearly set to be released on March 2009, but that didn't happen when real-life preoccupations occured for its staff members. Even after some engine changes, the development cycle still continues (although it might end soon, according to the Facebook updates). To put it in perspective, the project started back in '''2008'''.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Most of the game, but a few more specific ones include Yoku Man's dislike of Rush (most gamers would use Rush or Jet 2 to get past yoku-blocks) and a weird reversed one was Capcom USA [[Fee Fi Faux Pas|using Comet Woman's background on the official ''Mega Man 10'' website]].
* [[Smurfette Principle]]: Played straight with Comet Woman.
Line 44 ⟶ 46:
* [[Storming the Castle]]: Once all the Robot Masters are defeated, Mega Man does this to Wily's castle (which ''already'' came under attack in this case, ironically enough).
* [[Super Speed]]: Comet Woman & Jet Man both have this ability.
* [[The Brute]]: Tank Man, hands down.
* [[The Cameo]]: Hammer Man's use as a miniboss in the latest works, [[What Could Have Been|originally intended to be an actual Robot Master]] but was reworked into a [[Mini Boss]].
* [[The Not-Secret]]: Played straight and averted. While no attempts are made whatsoever to hide Yoku Man's status as a secret character, all the important plot details have been kept confidential (well, except one, if anyone relies on the trope below).
* [[Trailers Always Spoil]]: Possibly the case, as the official cover art strongly implies that {{spoiler|[[The Rival|Bass]]}} is behind the hijacking of Dr. Wily, [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us|his castle]] and his robots.
* [[Wackyland]]: Yoku Man's level with the Yoku Blocks and Spikes of Doom could count, but so does Yo-Yo Man's level proposal.
* [[Weather Control Machine|Weather Manipulator]]: Rainbow Man works in a weather control station, crates rain clouds with thunder bolts, and can vanish into fog.
* [[What Could Have Been]]:
** Yoku Man and Hammer Man were originally going to be part of the main Robot Master line-up, until Comet Woman's introduction.
** The game [[It Seemed Like a Good Idea At the Time|was going to be known as]] ''Mega Man 10'', until the official one came out. As a result, the staff hastily tried to come up with a different title to prevent confusion and legality issues.
