Games Chrono Trigger Main article: Chrono TriggerĬhrono Trigger is a console role-playing game which was released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System on Main Japan and on Augin North America. In terms of storyline, Chrono Cross was described by director and scenario writer Masato Kato as 'not a Chrono Trigger 2', but 'a result of a pulled trigger', 'another Chrono'. The gameplay focuses on the theme of parallel worlds rather than time travel, although the latter is still deeply involved in the game's plot. In terms of basic system and gameplay, producer Hiromichi Tanaka made it clear that the new installment was not a sequel to Chrono Trigger rather, the game designers' approach was to make the 'gameplay evolve with the hardware', creating a completely new game while restructuring the former style so as to maximize the performance of the console. Although the 'Dream Team' members did not participate in Chrono Cross, the game was developed mostly by the same staff as the first installment. In 1999, a continuation of Chrono Trigger, titled Chrono Cross, was announced. Since the platform of the game was not mainstream, the connections were however left blurred on purpose and were not advertised on the game's release. Nevertheless, by the end of the development, Masato Kato had connected the game's plot and characters to Chrono Trigger, turning it into a side story. Initially, the game was intended to be a short, original text-based adventure developed in three months with almost no planning. In 1996, Masato Kato and several other members of the Chrono Trigger staff worked on a minor project for the SNES Satellaview extension, titled Radical Dreamers: Nusumenai Hōseki. The outline was then finalized by story planner and script writer Masato Kato.
