La-Mulana 2

Reference

Most of the shopkeepers in this game are references to characters from other games, often obscure or Japanese-only releases.

• Enimul is the protagonist of Animal Land Satsujin Jiken.
• Kero is a combination of the lead character from Kero Blaster and Gillian Seed from Snatcher.
• Megarock is quite obviously Mega Man/Rockman, specifically the infamous design used on the cover of the original Mega Man.
• Hiro Roderick is Roderick Hero, the protagonist of H.E.R.O on the 2600.

Hydlit is visually based on Saitama from One Punch Man, while his name is similar to the early adventure RPG Hydlide. * Bargain Duck appears to be Scrooge McDuck, redesigned in a more realistic manner. * The unnamed owner of the Porque Item Shop is the "unnamed female" combined with the pig Butako, both from in Shalom: Knightmare III, . * Ash Geen is the title character of MSX release Ashguine II. * Sykick is a notable character (who takes up a goodly portion of the screen at all times) from Cosmic War: Psychic Soldier. * Venum is Venom, the primary antagonist in Nemesis 2 and Nemesis 3. * Shuhoka is the ship's doctor in JESUS: Kyoufu no Biomonster. * Peibalusa is a reference to Pay-Valusa from Tritorn on the MSX. * Fairylan is based on a fairy from Hydlide III, which was set in Fairyland. (It may also refer to Fairyland Saga.) * Haja was an unnamed shopkeeper in Miracle Warriors: Seal of the Dark Lord (known as Haja no Fūin in Japan); he only appears in the MSX version. * Mino the Bomb-Guy is a selectable character in Last Armageddon on the PC Engine and MSX. * Aytum is a shopkeeper in the MSX version of Xanadu (not to be confused with Faxanadu). * Korobock borrows his design from a character in Hokkaidō Rensa Satsujin: Okhotsk ni Kiyu. * Pym is Pim, the first shopkeeper in Ys 1: Ancient Ys Vanished on the MSX. * The Porque shopkeeper is a sort of a double-reference: in the game, the pig Botuko rides about on the lead character's shoulders and provides advice.
