Attachment The safe-houses in the game are churches with neon signs that says "Jesus Saves". Occasionally these signs will flicker, making it read "U Save". You are required to pay $50,000 to save your game here.

One of the churches also has the words "Rev. Elations, Club 13:17" written on top of it. This is a reference to verse 13:17 in the Book of Revelation, the final book of the Bible. This verse in the King Jame's Version reads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

This is an allusion to the number of the beast, 666.

Dragon's Lair
Dragon's Lair (1983)

An animated feature film of Dragon's Lair has been talked about but has never made it off of the drawing board. After the success of the Dragon's Lair video game in the arcades, Don Bluth wanted to make an animated feature based off of the game. The movie was scrapped in 1984.

An animated series of Dragon's Lair was later made, but Don Bluth had no part in making the show other than handing over model sheets of the characters to the people who were developing the show. Changes to the designs were made, and the result of this left Don Bluth later disliking the series.

According to Don Bluth's biography from John Cawley's website, Bluth later developed a story for a Dragon's Lair movie entitled "Dragon's Lair: The Legend". It focused on a teenage Dirk, as well as his origins with Princess Daphne. Dragon's Lair: The Legend followed many different concepts from the game, such as consideration for making Dirk talk, which would later lead to the character being mute due to a spell that was cast upon him.

Don Bluth considered Michael J Fox to voice Dirk for the feature. Don later pitched Dragon's Lair: The Legend to a studio, but they disagreed to go forward with it, thus development for the film was scrapped once again.

In 2013, in an interview with Don Bluth on the 30th anniversary of Dragon's Lair, Don announced that he would consider bringing back the Dragon's Lair movie as a Kickstarter project.

Originally, Kojima was not going to be a part of the creation of the game aside from providing the overall guidelines and concepts for the project. However, he noticed that the team did not understand the story's themes about nuclear deterrence and the cold war (admitting that it was most likely because of generational differences) and stepped in to make sure the game turned out how he envisioned.

One of Eirin Yagokoro's spell cards is called "Curse of the Heavens 'Apollo 13'," and is named after the famed Apollo 13 of NASA's space project, which had a critical malfunction and was sent back to Earth.

In the attack's description on Normal difficulty, it reads "13 is an unlucky number. Only Lunarians know the reason for its failure." It is revealed in later supplementary works that its failure was the result of Lunarian sabotage.

The "these pretzels suck" and Butt Stallion dialogue spoken by Handsome Jack were ad-libbed by voice actor Dameon Clarke. Writer Anthony Burch was upset that these became Handsome Jack's most popular lines as he had no hand in writing them.

"This was an adlib by Dameon Clarke, the voice of Handsome Jack. It's easily Jack's single most popular line, and I didn't frigging write it. I will never forgive Dameon for this."

It didn't meet DIC's expectations, and was subsequently scrapped. It was later released on VHS, but is considered a collectible as it is hard to come by.
