Neon Blood is full of references and winks to games, movies and books that have marked us and that we admire, that is why today we have prepared this devlog explaining a few of these references in Neon Blood ✨🧵👇

One game that has served us as a reference has been ANNO Mutationem that's why we wanted to add a couple of winks of his universe in Neon Blood, here you can see Ayane looking for Ann Flores through the streets of Blind City, but what are they doing here? 🤔

And speaking of references, here you have the main character from REPLACED as we can't wait for the game to be released we decided to kidnap R.E.A.C.H. and bring him to Dust County 🔥

One of the references that people have found most in Neon Blood is to our favorite rocker Johnny Silverhand, Cyberpunk 2077 is the big reason that made us start creating Neon Blood when we finished our studies in 2020 🤘🎸

We could not miss John Cooper, the protagonist of Let Bions by bygones and we are sure he would have a good evening with Axel McCoin having a drink at The Rogue 🕵️👀

We had to add the two protagonists of Studio Koba´s great games, the trichroma resonates loudly in the streets of Viridis 🤖㊥

You can also find Jack in the desert of Dust County, we believe she got lost on his way to the Neo-Barcelona of Altered Alma ⚔️🌆

We also have a tribute to what we suffered playing Eden Genesis 👟🌃

The Penitent is also in Neon Blood, and we had to add a tribute to one of the best Spanish games in history ⛪️⚔️

The best mullet of video games is also represented in the Blind CIty market, it is rare to see him so calm...🔫🔥

Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow (I think you're in the wrong sewer) 🐈🤖

Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow (A samurai cat, who needs more) 🐈🎌

Our great friends from Path Games are on vacation in Blind City, maybe they are looking for ideas for their new game Dark Mass 👻👀

The creators of the tremendous OST of Neon Blood are also present, it seems that they are late for their last concert 🎶🐈‍⬛

Our publishers with Neon Blood who gave us the possibility to release our first game and fulfill our dream, if you look well in the arcade you will find their logos 👀💛💙

These are just some of the references that you can find in Neon Blood, there are still many more that you will have to discover by yourselves...👀
