nuh uh

Annalynn (PC/Switch)

• The game's climbing mechanics are borrowed directly from Donkey Kong Jr., with Annalynn climbing faster upwards if she's holding two ropes and slower if she's holding just one, and vice versa for climbing down.
• Annalynn's "Just what I needed!" voice clip when collecting an item references the Super Mario Advance series' use of the line.

Anton series

Antonball / Antonball Classic (PC)

Comparison of Mario's sprite in Alleyway and Anton's sprite in Antonball Classic.

• Anton's design is based on Wario.
• Many of the game's elements are borrowed from Mario Bros., such as floors, Anton's death animation, the game's logo, and many sound effects.
• The voice calling the game's name in the title screen references the Super Mario Advance series' own title screens.
• The "Yeah!" voice clip at the end of the game's victory jingle mimics Mario's voice.
• Anton's sprite is an edit of Mario's sprite from Alleyway.

Punchball Antonball (PC)

• The game is heavily based on Punch Ball Mario Bros.. The player uses a Punch Ball to stun enemies that come out of pipes, and then kicks them to defeat them. When there's only one enemy remaining, it becomes faster.
• The game's level theme (named "Punch Bowl" in Antonball Deluxe) is inspired by the Level 1 theme from the Game Boy Advance version of Mario Bros..

Antonball Deluxe (PC/Switch)

Title screen of Antonball Deluxe, showing Anton (bottom right) and Danton (top right)'s similarity to Wario and Luigi. Also note the logo font's similarity to that of Mario Bros..

Being an enhanced and expanded remake of both Antonball Classic and Punchball Antonball, most references from those games are carried on to Antonball Deluxe.

• The game takes several more cues from Mario Bros., including many references to the Game Boy Advance version specifically:
  • The game's sound design and compressed voice clips heavily resemble Game Boy Advance Mario Bros's own.
  • "Welcome to Antonball", the game's title theme, is a rearrangement of the title theme from Antonball Classic, with an added initial fanfare and new instrumentation referencing the title theme from the Game Boy Advance version of Mario Bros..
  • The game's round start theme, "On with the Show", is an arranged excerpt of "Spring" from Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, much like how Mario Bros.'s own round start theme is an arranged excerpt of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Eine kleine Nachtmusik.
  • The game's borders are stylized to resemble the promotional art of Mario Bros.'s arcade version.
  • Anton's backflip move is similar to the Crouching High Jump, being performed by jumping while crouching, although it does not need to be charged.
  • Boiler Sewers, the game's first level, references Mario Bros.'s sewer setting.
  • Snails behave similarly to Freezies, making the floor slippery and being destroyed with one attack instead of being stunned.
  • Thunder Daves function identically to Fireballs.
  • The "Vs. Antonball" mode features throwable trash cans.

• Besides Mario Bros., Antonball Deluxe also features a few references to the Wario franchise:
  • Anton's design becomes even closer to Wario's. His sprite while clutching resembles Wario's Dash Attack.
  • Anton's laughter is created by consecutively pitching down individual "ha" soundbites, just like Wario's laugh in Wario Land 4.
  • The game's unlockable vinyls reference Wario Land 4's CDs.
  • The Lottery feature references the Capsule Machine from the WarioWare series.
  • Wario and Jimmy T appear as "Special Thanks" in the game's credits.

• Danton's appearance in this game resembles both Luigi and Waluigi.
• Antonball mode's bonus stages featuring various characters' faces resembles Alleyway's bonus stages featuring sprites from Super Mario Bros..
• DLC character "Fixed Gold Evil Baby Paul (Shiny)" references the Mario Kart series' character variants, particularly Baby Mario and Pink Gold Peach.
• "Jam Jungle Jammin'"'s bongo and drum-only intro references "DK Island Swing".
• One of the "Funny" images features the McDonald's Happy Meal Take the Mario Challenge "Mario Throw and Catch" toy, digitally altered to have Anton's beard and color scheme.
• The "Super Gangston!" vinyl's cover references an edit of a specific render of Mario and F.L.U.D.D. from Super Mario Sunshine, heavily compressed and recolored to match Anton's color scheme.

ANTONBLAST (PC/Switch)

• The game takes greater inspiration from the Wario Land series than it's predecessor, particularly Wario Land 4 (listed as an inspiration on the official Kickstarter page) and Virtual Boy Wario Land.
  • Game mechanics:
    • Anton's clutch attack from Antonball Deluxe is reworked to function closer to the Dash Attack.
    • Crouching on steep slopes makes Anton roll.
    • The game features several transformations akin to Wario's reactions, triggered by the enviroment.
      • The game's Angel transformation functions similarly to Puffy Wario, while the petrified state resembles Frozen Wario.
    • The game's level structure is taken from Wario Land 4, requiring the player to find a Switch-like detonator and return to the level's entrance within a time limit, while Brulo Blocks (functioning similarly to Kaeru Blocks) appear and disappear to alter the return path.
    • The four card suit detonators take the place of jewel piece chests, the Spirit in each level functions like Keyzer, and the cassette tapes work like CDs.
    • The game's collectible poker chips come in red and blue, with red ones being worth more points, and giant poker chips being even more valuable. This is a similar system to Wario Land 4’s gems and diamonds.
    • Much like Virtual Boy Wario Land, levels are built on two parallel planes that can be traversed utilizing Jump Transporter-like springs.
    • Several levels feature optional rooms with a monochromatic red palette and a unique chiptune track, referencing the Virtual Boy.
  • Enemies and bosses:
    • Pippos are the game's simplest enemy, are unable to deal damage to Anton, and change color from their default yellow to blue when Anton performs the Ground Pound-like "Antomic Blast" near them. If defeated while blue, they yield better score. This behavior is similar to that of Marumen.
    • Ballbusters, returning from the previous games, are reimagined into a second basic enemy with a pointed weapon, much like Pirate Goom, Mask-Guy, Spearhead, Spear-Mask and Pitchfork.
    • Beelzeballs behave identically to Virtual Boy Wario Land’s swinging spike balls.
    • The reaching hands in Pinball Mire resemble Mizu no te and Suna kara te from Wario Land 3.
    • A later, larger variant of Ballbuster holds a large pitchfork in front of it, resembling the giant spear man.
    • Tallbuster is a long-bodied boss that pops out of gaps in the ground to attack, similar to Sand Fish.
    • Satan's first phase resembles the Shake King's pattern. Both bosses charge into the wall and get stuck, leaving their rears vulnerable to attacks.
  • Levels:
    • The moving lava walls in Bomb Candy Mines' escape sequence reference Course No.20 from Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3.
    • One of the variations of Concrete Jungle's themes utilizes the same vocal sample as Crescent Moon Village's theme, both taken from the Spectrasonics Vocal Planet series of sample CDs.
    • Pinball Mire features rooms named "Pinball Zone" and "The Big Board".
    • The first theme for The Mad Mall greatly resembles Pinball Zone's theme.
    • Hell Manor, the game's final level, serves as an equivalent to the Golden Passage, featuring its detonator at the very beginning of the stage.
• The game's earlier demos feature grass that can be pulled to obtain healing beetroots, much like Super Mario Bros. 2's vegetables.
• Barrel Cannon-like cement mixers appear in most levels.
• A piece of graffiti in Slowroast Sewers references Small Mario's sprite in Super Mario Bros., recolored to match Anton's color scheme.
• Totem enemies that behave identically to Screaming Pillars appear in Cinnamon Springs.
• Devilled Gardens features rooms named "Satan's Gusty Gardens" and "Lethal Lava Lagoon".

  • Anton's "So Retro" palette references Mario's sprite in Super Mario Bros.. Annie's version references Luigi's sprite.
  • Anton's "Mom's Dress" palette references Wario's sprite in Wario Land 4. Annie's version references Princess Shokora's artwork palette.
  • Anton's "Country Monkey" palette references Donkey Kong, with its description referencing Donkey Kong 64's "Oh, banana" voice clip. Annie's version's description instead references Funky Kong.
  • Both descriptions for the "Game Ball Light" palette (based on the Game Boy Light) quotes the cutscene before Larry's Chillton Hotel in Hotel Mario.
