Hi, after the page References to other media (https://worms2d.info/References_to_other_media), I thought on making the opposite: "Other media referencing Worms series" page. I think it would be amazing to know which games, TV series, movies, board games, books, etc. make reference to Worms series. This would encourage me and other people to know these media. Also, people that know the other media would feel more interest to the Worms series.
However, this page seems harder to write than the other. I'm trying, but right now I can't recall about any reference from other media to Worms series. Do you guys know any? It would be great if people help to build this page. I'm sure there are many references to Worms series out there.
All I can think of is the web comic VGCats referenced Worms twice:

Don't forget about music, not just my own there's a lot of remixes and stuff out there! :P

Oh yes, now I remember that someone shared an album that used Worms sound effects on it, I think it was RuffledBricks, not sure. Gotta find the discussion on Discord.
Someone once told me that Ready Player One (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready_Player_One_(film)) had some references to Worms, but I didn't watch the movie yet and I didn't read the book, but I bought the book. I tried to find something related to this on the internet, and no clues. So, I gotta read that book or watch the movie to discover. Maybe the person who told me this was wrong.
Edit: I found the post by RuffledBricks: https://discord.com/channels/416225356706480128/541315292115107852/1137076500902969514. It's a Portuguese producer called DJ Fofuxo. Here's a link to 13 tracks by "DJs Di Guetto": https://principediscos.bandcamp.com/album/djs-di-guetto
there are 3 tracks referencing Worms: "Tarracho Do Guetto", "Isto É Kazu Bite", and "Tarracho Exxelentt".
Edit 2: I think probably the reference of Ready Player One is the Holy Hand Grenade that has to do with Monty Python and the Holy Grail and not necessarily Worms.
I found the fighting game that has Boggy B as a character: "MUGEN" seems to be the name.
MUGEN's a fan-game, so that's like finding a Worms-related mod in any other game. I think the article should be limited to more official stuff and it should not include the fan-made stuff.
Also, here's another one:

That is actually awesome! Boggy B kicking ass! 8)
Wormy Justice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=druVoQmNAdg) is a well-known song about the Worms games, or so I hope. ;D I also used a Worms speech effect in a Bloopmongler track called 'LIFE'.

It could be reasonable to say the movie meant it as a reference to games and Monty Python simultaneously. Team Fortress 2 helped take the HHG mainstream as a game weapon, and they were partly referencing Worms, so you could mention that. But apparently the first games to have a holy hand grenade may have been Moraff's Revenge (1988) and Moraff's World (1991).
If anything else Worms-related appears, it flashed by too fast for me to notice.
