'''Studiopolis''' is chock-full of Sonic and Sega references. First of all, there is a reference to a ''[[Streets of Rage]]'' first level prop ,the '''Pine Pot''', changed to the '''Pink Bot''' in ''[[Sonic Mania|Mania]]''. There is also a subtle reference to ''[[sega:Daytona USA|Daytona USA]]'' in the form of a van with the '''Hornet''' race-car logo on it. There are odd lamps in '''Studiopolis Zone''' that are in fact a reference to scrapped UFO's that were supposed to be in the original [[Marble Zone]] which were reimplemented in the debug mode of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2013 game)|2013 remake]] of ''[[Sonic 1]]''. The infamous letterings "Cope" and "CPU" appear once again as graffiti on train cars, which is obviously a reference to the same letterings in [[Spring Yard Zone]]. There is also a billboard stating "Club Spin: AGES", in where Club Spin is a reference to ''[[sega:Club Sega|Club Sega]]'' and AGES is SEGA backwards. In the level there is an obsticalized version of the ''[[SegaSonic Popcorn Shop]]''. There is also a [[sega:Game Gear|Game Gear]] logo on a monitor that Sonic jumps out of. Coincidentally, '''Studiopolis''' is a reference to the name to the recording studio of ''[[Sonic Boom]]''.
