References
- The star starfish drawing is modeled after a childish drawing of an asshole, from the 1973 book Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut.
- In the haiku, Do You Believe In Magic? is a song by the Lovin' Spoonful. "Do you believe in magic?" was also a McDonald's slogan in 1993, based on the aforementioned song.
- "Wish upon this star" in the haiku refers to the song When You Wish upon a Star from the 1940 Walt Disney movie Pinocchio.
- In the wax lips message, "smiles vertically with his wax lips" may be a play on "vertical lips", which along with the starfish, can be taken as anatomical references.
- In the Cake-Shaped Arena, where you can face several arena familiars with your own, the Star Starfish is named 'Supanover', which is a reference to the Oasis song Champagne Supernova, in which Noel Gallagher, with his Manchester accent, sings what sounds a lot more like "supanover" than "supernova".
