Screen Wrapping Items and Enemies

Technically not unique to Rush, this is most often experienced while riding Rush Jet or using Rush Coil.

When Mega Man goes off the top of the screen, his Y-coordinate "wraps". This makes it possible to grab items low on the screen while jumping off the top of the screen.

The easiest place to see this is in Doc Needle over the chasm. Position Mega Man on the Rush Jet over one of the large drops at the bottom of the screen, and full jump. Mega Man will collect the bottom of the screen drop.

This has a few effects.

• Collecting drops is usually considered a slow down, so space your jumps appropriately to avoid them.
  • You may want to collect something on purpose, like the E-Tank in the water in Gemini Man's stage using Rush Coil off the top of the screen.
• You can also collide with enemies near the bottom of the screen! Usually parashus and Dragon Flies in Doc Needle.
• You can manipulate the dragon fly enemies in Doc Needle to fly to the bottom of the screen if they track Mega Man's vertical position while you are off the top of the screen.
