Spot the Reference


#60

Thank you for repeating what others before you have already said. I already said Belladonna is a poisonous plant, but its not an exact reference to the real life flower. First of all, the real life Deadly Nightshade flowers don’t looke anything like Belladonna. Secondly, only Belladonna’s berry projectiles reference the plant.

Also, please, put more effort into your ‘evidence’ next time beyond ‘From myths or whatever’ That just shows you don’t really care, and doesn’t actually serve anything to back up your claims.


#61

I concede this, I realized your point makes a lot more sense


#62

Sorry, can’t use ctrl+f on a phone to see if anyone has said it before. And I honestly don’t really want succubus in my search history… lol

When Commander Calbrik says “Fine, I’ll do it myself…” it is a reference to the same line Thanos says at the end credits of Avengers: Age of Ultron.
image The Alien Mini Satellite’s sprites are a reference to TIE Fighters in Star Wars.

The infographic/poster of the RIFTS Infestation season has a tentacle Oryx which likely references the fictional entity Cthulhu.

The Cool Shrine that appears during April Fools uses the iconic Deal With It meme’s sunglasses.

The ground in the Cultist Hideout reference the religious association of the pentagram. This could also extend to the event god Pentaract’s pentagram.

Balaam in the Cultist Hideout is a reference to a figure in the bible of the same name.

image Royal Champion Samurai’s description references the act of Seppuku in which one chooses to die at their own hands (by ritual suicide) in order to retain honour.

image Baywatch Samurai’s name references the show Baywatch, and so too does the description reference the first line, “Some people stand in the darkness”, in the show’s theme song “I’ll be ready” by Sunblock.

image Tatooed Yakuza Samurai’s name references the Yakuza crime syndicates of Japan.

image Chonmage Samurai’s sprite and name references the show Samurai Jack, as the protagonist wields a magic katana (-mage) and was sent into the future (Chron-).

image Demon Girl Samurai’s sprite and description references Nezuko from the manga Demon Slayer.

It’s actually intended as a reference to Uncharted 3, but the phrase has been used elsewhere too.


#66

These 5 skins are based on characters from the Charles Dickens story, A Christmas Carol , Their designs seem to be based specifically on the 2009 animated film adaptation.

Close! Their designs (and descriptions) were based on The Muppet Christmas Carol, though I didn’t design Scrooge so I can’t speak for him.

Deadpool is green?!!!


#69

Think Queen of Hearts is the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland.


#70

Yeah I really should have deployed Private Browsing :male_detective: before trying to work out if Soubrette Trickster from @Dappertron that I indirectly looted was based on some specific media example, or if it was more simply a generic/trope character.

inb4 I begin to get targeted ads selling me kinky maid outfits. :rofl:


#71

@Skyslurp says “Ooh, kinky.”


#72

Ah yes, the Sienar Fleet Systems’ TIE/LN Star Fighter. A commodity that was the most plentiful thing in the galaxy after hydrogen and stupidity


#73

all those pet skins and you didn’t mention the best reference of all smh


#74

No, but it’s super clear. Even if it wasn’t inspired by Deadpool, there are a ton of similarities, from the eyes to the belt to the sword.


#75

:flushed:


#76

I expected a ping…

…after all, at times…
then again romance is fake


#77

But Skyslup has the hots for Nevov, so…


#78

New patch notes!
I’ll claim my own skin references before anybody else does.

Water Battlemaiden: Katara from Avatar the Last Airbender (it’s also my scrapped version of a skin for TWO art contests)
Samurai Quack: Two references: The name is a reference to “Samurai Jack”, and the description is a huge reference to “The Duck Song”
