I'm confused:
There's your style. Are you looking for inspiration, or just something to completely emulate?
The Metal Slug series has some excellent backgrounds that may give you inspiration. Unless you're just looking for a style to copy, in which case, good luck doing that with Metal Slug.
Honestly, though, neon light-filled dilapidated futuristic city is a setting that has been used plenty of times. Surely you've seen multiple sources of media that use it? Do you really need to ask us for sources of inspiration?
