List of References (potential spoilers?)
DIR By: Kim Tyranto
Date: January 31, 2015, 5:19 am
---------------------------------------------------------
A list of references will be handy, since there'll probably be
lots of them in the future. :o
References listed will be from the released versions, and not
the future versions.
---------------------------------------------------------
UNIVERSAL:
- None so far?
---------------------------------------------------------
VARIOUS AREAS:
- The maps in the Maps folder are a reference to some
Castlevania games, though apparently also Metroid games
- The Warp Doors are references to Aria of Sorrow and the
Nintendo DS Castlevania games
- Gardevoir reference the Pokémon franchise
- The Yumemi Hoshino outfit references the Planetarian: The
Reverie of a Little Planet visual novel
- The Kalifa outfit references the One Piece franchise
- Yes Town references Pokémon RSEORAS
- Some enemies reference Ikachan - while most of these enemies
are in the Reservoir area, however, some of them are outside of
that area (such as at Tower D)
- There are various references to the Cave Story Tribute Site
Forums, including some memes (like "______ STORY")
---------------------------------------------------------
ENTRANCE:
- The intro references Castlevania (Simon's Quest?) and One
Piece
- Eron Araia Armweak references Fullmetal Alchemist as well as
Metal Gear
- The save rooms reference some of the Castlevania games
- Hiranya (purplish-haired girl at entrance) references Grandia
2; her quote is obviously different. The quote from Grandia 2
referenced is:
--- Quote from: Ryudo ---
> Does not Ryudo tire of this? Does he not want to put his fist
through this book? May his suffering end quickly.
--- End Quote ---
- The computer has various references to the Cave Story Tribute
Site forums, as well as to Mega Man.
- The Mimiga, Chie, says "Hello, my friend. Stay a while and
listen." This references Diablo, I think. And obviously Cave
Story. And also Pokémon.
- The girl who tells you about the Castle Treasury references an
amazing Beta Tester who misnamed the characters. (I asked him if
it is okay for those misnamings to be used for an NPC.)
- Arnold (the guy who owns the computer) references Terraria:
--- Quote from: Clothier ---
> My master cannot be summoned under the light of day.
--- End Quote ---
Though, it makes little difference whether the Newerthian clock
is on "day" or "night".
- The girl who talks about the World of Tears (Dianke)
references Obscuro Lumen Venenum Aeris, which got canned. The
Glorphians also reference Dragon Riders.
- The witch who talks about Flame Source Casters, and her sister
who speaks in emoticon, both reference Shane's canceled Vion
Ierra mod.
- The robot pirate references Portal (I think), where he says
the cake is not a lie. And asks if the LS DataScape is a lie.
- Xyz is a reference to the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise (in name only -
its name is pronounced "ik-seez" but that's about it; lampshaded
in the Servant Quarters area)
- That girl who cannot leave the "house" references one of
Randolf/Wayne's posts when he encountered a major bug in a
previous version - you couldn't leave that house at all, if you
entered. This has since been fixed with version 1b's release.
---------------------------------------------------------
LABORATORY:
- The roach in the save room before Sycor references Symphony of
the Night (the "what is a man?" quote)
---------------------------------------------------------
RESERVOIR:
- None that I can recall.
---------------------------------------------------------
TOWER:
- Tower D references La-Mulana
---------------------------------------------------------
SERVANT QUARTERS:
- Grialdyn references Riviera: The Promised Land with his quote
"Burn in emerald flames" (in Riviera, Ledah says "Burn in
crimson flames" IIRC)
- Shinica references Castlevania by mentioning Vampire Killer,
as well as Konami in general by mentioning the Konami Code (from
Gradius or Parodius, not sure)
- The scene with Alexis attacking Shinica references
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
- The "it hurts" in Valkyrie's scene as well as the "father why"
in Grialdyn's scene references the Chzo Mythos series; Grialdyn
also references the original Cave Story with some of its
defeated quotes
- The bookshelves reference the following:
[li]The Ginny Anderson books reference the Harry Potter
franchise:
[li]Ginny Anderson and the Half-Blood Moon
- Ginny Anderson and the Four Philosophers reference La-Mulana
as well (the Four Philosophers)
- Ginny Anderson and the Final Clorensians
- Ginny Anderson and the Strawberry Crisis references Touhou as
well (a song from the Touhou games is called "Strawberry
Crisis!!")
- Ginny Anderson and the Grim Sleeper
- Ginny Anderson and the Dullahan Bikers
- Ginny Anderson and the Garter Ninja Maid might also reference
Touhou (uncertain at this point)
- Ginny Anderson and the Little Princess of the Lunar Realm
- Ginny Anderson and the Battle Cat Army
- Ginny Anderson and the End of Existence
[/li]
- Emily X. Odia (writer of The Artifacts of Xenobia the Fallen)
references the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise ("Exodia")
- B'yal Glowblade (writer of The Lace Glove) references the
Monsuno series (there is a character named Beyal and a Monsuno
named Glowblade)
- The Eastern Judgement in the Sixtieth Year: Fate of Sixty
Years book references the Touhou games; it's also lampshaded
[/li]
- The Master references the Cave Story Tribute Site forums with
his "subfolders" speech, and also references Portal with his
mentioning of a deadly neurotoxin
- The statues that reference Cave Story
- Aodhán's statue references Wipeout (2008 series with obstacle
courses, hosted by John Henson and John Anderson IIRC)
---------------------------------------------------------
TOP FLOOR:
- None yet.
---------------------------------------------------------
THE ZONE AREAS:
- The Sea Zone references one of TED's mods (I think it was
unreleased?) which had the Sea Zone as a copy of the Sand Zone
from vanilla CS.
- Cheriza's quotes reference Grandia 2 as well:
--- Quote from: Melfice ---
> Long have I waited for this day… […] For my REBIRTH…
--- End Quote ---
Though, my memory might be mistaken. She also references Cave
Story:
--- Quote from: Ballos ---
> Now… kill me! Or I-- shall kill YOU!
--- End Quote ---
- Cheriza eating a fruit that allowed her to shapechange into a
sasquatch is a reference to One Piece, which has Zoan-type Devil
Fruits that grant similar abilities. Such as a Devil Fruit that
lets the eater turn into an ox, or a giraffe.
- The Realm of Crystal, Wyvern Riders and "nega-cyan gal" all
reference Dragon Riders.
---------------------------------------------------------
NOT REFERENCES:
- The Crescent Moon is not a reference to RWBY which has a
Crescent Rose.
---------------------------------------------------------
If I've missed any, please notify me in this thread :)
TO DO:
4 January 2016: continue from Tower TP

I thought Xyz wasn't an actual Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal reference. I
guess you're a Konami fan in general. Which brings up a question
will we have a MGS reference. Just asking.

I'm a fan of Castlevania and Yu-Gi-Oh! though I've also played
Knightmare II: The Maze of Galious and Lost in Blue before.
However, aside from those games, I might reference other Konami
games. :)

Going by some of the screenshots, there are several references
to Ikachan (like those crabs).

Yes, but not in versions 0, 1 or 2.
When version 3 is officially released (and not in a beta
release), the references list will be updated.
Micren and the squid and crabs reference Ikachan, yes.
Tower D references La-Mulana.

Exodoa?! Seriously how we didn't noticed that. Jees I wasn't
playing Yu-Gi-Oh! for a long time. ;D.
PS: Anybody of you using Duel Network? :D

Nope. For unknown reasons I'm unable to access it, although
there is only one person I would like to challenge to a duel -
Shane.
Which, unfortunately, won't ever happen, since he himself is
aware that just about all of his cards are fake, and he's rather
angry at the stores in his hometown. (I don't know if there are
exceptions, though.)
If I remember correctly what he mentioned somewhere:
He has at least eight unused Obelisk the Tormentors, for
instance. He also has various "The Winged Dragon of Ra" and
"Slifer the Sky Dragon" cards.
He also has two of the sacred beast cards from GX (the blue one
and the yellow one).
He also has only Fusion and Ritual Monsters, yet he can only use
two of his Ritual Monsters, and three of his Fusion Monsters
(they don't require Polymerization, and Shane doesn't have it).
Of course, I don't trust my own memory with this; I'm gonna try
and find where he mentioned it.
---------------------------------------------------------
With that aside:
The first post has once again been updated with some references
I forgot (including Eron Armweak and the intro).
I still feel like I'm missing something major with the Reservoir
area, though... :o

Well about the cards I needed 10 years to find Polymerization In
my country. Also there were 6 versions of Exodia: Circle Exodia;
Star Exodia; Full Circle Exodia; Full Star Exodia; Black Exodia
and Sand Exodia. All fake. Only way to get originals was to
travel to other countries. :D
