Bounce Man Stage, also written as Bounce Man's Stage, known as Rubber Man Stage (ラバーマンステージ) in Japan, is the stage from Bounce Man in Mega Man 11, which is set on the Boing-Boing Park (ポインポインパーク Poin Poin Pāku), a theme park that Bounce Man changed into his personal playground after being modified by Dr. Wily. It was designed as an indoor theme park, with its mascot being Frog Balloon, which serves as a mid-boss.
Description[]
The stage has several bouncy balls that push Mega Man to the opposite direction when touched, the distance increasing if the jump button is held, being needed to reach some areas and proceed. When touched from the sides, they bounce Mega Man in a diagonal angle, going down normally and up with the jump button held.
Mega Man starts in the bottom of a vertical area. To get to the top, he must climb up and fall from a great height onto a trampoline. The distance of his fall determines how high the trampoline will bounce him, needing to be high enough to reach the ladder on the top. Afterwards, Mega Man will enter an area where the high jump from bouncy balls must be used to proceed, and an area with a block with a hand balloon attached on the top. Shooting the hand will deflate it, moving it under the block, and a countdown will appear on the block. When complete, the hand will be restored to its previous position, and if Mega Man is on the block, it will push Mega Man (blue hands pushing to the left and red hands to the right), being needed to reach the ladder on the other side of a platform that a standard jump cannot reach. Following this is a room surrounded by bouncy balls, and areas where both the balls and hands need to be used. Afterwards, Mega Man has his first encounter with the mid-boss, Frog Balloon.
After defeating the mid-boss, Mega Man will enter an area with pits and Tosanaizer Vs, which require careful navigation. After continuing through more hazards in the area and defeating Frog Balloon again, Mega Man will pass by two large and dark areas that combine some elements from previous areas, including two trampolines, being the final challenge before Bounce Man's lair, a room with toy blocks.
