Cast

References to Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Shorts

  • The castle interior in Hair-Raising Hare is the inspiration for the indoor look and feel of the Evil Scientist's castle.
  • The same pictures on the castle walls in Hair-Raising Hare appear on the walls.
  • The Evil Scientist's castle in Water, Water Every Hare can be found in the game's opening cinematic and is the setting for the first and last chapters of the game.
  • Just like Water, Water Every Hare, the first level has a "MONSTER" door too.
  • The Camelot level is inspired by the cartoon Knighty Knight Bugs.
  • The STOP and GO signs directing traffic in Drip-Along Daffy direct the train traffic in the Wild West level. Also, the environment in that cartoon is also included in the Wild West level. Nasty Canasta, the antagonist of that short, appears as an enemy in several levels.
  • The train similar to the one in Bugs Bunny Rides Again is present in the Wild West level.
  • Sing Song Prison from Big House Bunny provided the idea for Boot Hill Prison.
  • The look and feel of the videogame's Boot Hill Prison takes after the interior appearance of Sing Song Prison.
  • Sam dressed in a prison uniform is the inspiration behind his ancestor in the game.
  • Hare-Way to the Stars is the direct inspiration for the look and feel of the Mars level.
  • The Instant Martians in Hare-way To The Stars replace most robots in The Great Fashion Show.
  • The Mars level of the game lets you race a jet scooter through space just as Bugs does in Hare-way To The Stars.
  • The title of "Bully for Porky" is a reference to the short Bully for Bugs, making a joke to the fact that Evil Porky is riding the bull from that short in the fight.
