Chrono Crisis is a new story in the Chrono series being done with RPGMaker.

Five years have passed since Crono and the others defeated Lavos and erased him from existence and the year is now 1005 A.D. Crono and Nadia, now married, have a son, Rowan.Since the King is ruling the kingdom, they continue to live in Crono's house,(which is bigger)where they spend their days in happiness, often visiting the castle, to visit "Grandpa Guardia", as Rowan calls him. Lucca has been running an orphanage ever since she found a baby, Kid, in the Guardia Forest. She continues to invent things in her spare time (with the help of her cousin Luccia from Porre.) In 610 A.D. (you'll understand why it's 10 years rather than 5 in the game) Glenn, (still in his frog form) is now the honorable knight captain, and trains the eager young Tata the ways of the knight in his spare time.

Ayla and Kino, also now married, are forced to make a pact with their long hated enemies, the Reptites, because of the cold harsh enviroment they're forced to live in. They now live deep in caves hoping to survive another year as it only gets colder and colder. Not only that, Ayla has been extremely sick as of late. In the new future, Robo and Atropos work under Mother Brain in Geno Dome and help her make sure that the world stays safe, but lately a new threat that call themselves "Techno Mages " have begun to wreak havoc in search of a mysterious artifact. Magus still searches for Schala, unfortunately to no avail. But, he's determined to find her and believes that she's trapped somewhere in an unknown time.

Crono, Nadia, and Lucca discover that people and places in time have been erased after exploring the mystery behind Sandorino's, (the town in the Middle Ages), disappearance. Now, after the town of Chorus starts to vanish they must travel in time to stop the destruction of their world before they too are erased.

Chrono MUCK

Welcome travelers, You've found yourself on the shores of Guardia Kingdom 1004 AD. Based upon the worlds of Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross by Square-Enix, this site was created to introduce newcomers to our rendition of such a well known story. What we present to you is a MUCK (a form of online text only RPG) set 4 years after the events of Chrono Trigger.

It's a world where Crono is king, where Magus was seemingly defeated at the hands of "Frog" and where a rebellion on the shores of Medina threatens to over throw the Kingdom of Guardia halfway accross the globe on the continent of Zenan.

To join us you need only to apply for a character and log on using a MU* client such as Telnet, SimpleMU or Pueblo. The game is free and constantly evolving. Gameplay is very simple and easy to learn, and our wiz staff is always ready to help a newcomer out should they have any questions.

With that said, we hope you join us...

...for the black wind howls...

Chrono Trigger: Day of Thantos

Chrono Trigger: Day of Thantos is an effort to create a Chrono game in 3D that takes place between Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.

Throughout the ages, great warriors touched by destiny have journeyed across space, time and dimension to save the earth, all life, and even time itself. As one danger was replaced by another, new heroes came forth to meet the challenge. But there is an untold story in the Chrono saga. The heroes who had crossed time to defeat Lavos and save the future still had a part to play. In the tumultuous time between two dynasties, an ancient foe reached from beyond oblivion to enact is final vengeance, and a new, yet familiar enemy arose. From the hands of the daughter of magic, captive in a prison of shadow, destruction was sown anew. Faced with the ruination of the peace which they had created, the time travelers were thrust into the heat of battle once again. The flames of valor which had ended the tyranny of Lavos were rekindled once more, because not only the fate of the earth was at stake, but all existence. These were the events of Chrono Trigger 2: Day of Thantos.

Chrono Trigger Movie Soundtrack Remix Project

http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=45588

Mission Statement

The mission of this project is to fully orchestrate the incredible music of Chrono Trigger, in order to create a soundtrack befitting the Chrono Trigger movie, as scripted by this project's leader and originator. In doing so, we hope to achieve a level of professionalism and cohesiveness unwitnessed in recent Chrono Trigger projects, and create a product that is both wholly enjoyable and entirely encompassing of its textual foundation. Our mission is, in its purest form, to create a lasting and self-sustaining soundtrack that will be listened to for many years to come, and considered a cornerstone of the Chrono Trigger universe. To do this, we rely upon the most talented remixers in the world, those of the OCReMix forums, whose combined works have reached many thousands upon thousands of ears, and whose combined skills will ensure a compilation of songs worthy of any movie, fan-based or otherwise. This is our mission.

Chrono Trigger Novel Project

Chrono Trigger Novel Project Mission Statement By Wayne Kramer, 10/17/04 Project Information: http://www.chronotrigger.info

The Chrono Trigger Novel Project exists as an effort to create, publicize, and publish a Chrono Trigger novel as an additional form of media that can be enjoyed by current fans of the hit RPG and the non-gaming community alike. The novel itself reflects the entire story from the game, plus countless additions to supply bonus material for existing fans, fill in story gaps, and add to the overall effect of the story in novel form.

The creation of the novel itself is not to be handled by a solo entity, namely myself. Rather, I have provided many avenues for fans to speak up and let their ideas and concerns for the novel be heard and considered. To make the content of the novel as thorough and accurate as possible, an Editorial Team has been formed consisting of a group of carefully selected individuals to assist in editorial efforts. This team is a part of a project Committee, which serves to provide input, support, and execution to the operations within the project. All of this is reflective of my belief that the story of Chrono Trigger is not my own, but that of every fan who has enjoyed the characters, events, and depth it presents.

In light of successful publication, it is my hope that, as the founder and novelist of this project, the Chrono Trigger novel would add a new, entertaining, and enjoyable story in the vast collection of fantasy literature. Through this novel, RPG fans would be treated to the ability to experience the story that they once played their way through in a fresh and in-depth narrative that can effectively supplement the gaming experience. It is my belief that this novel would be a large success if allowed to enter the mainstream, paving the way for other novels like it and a plethora of other possibilities, serving as an asset to the beneficiaries, the gaming community, the reading community, and the entertainment industry.

Chrono Trigger Remake Project

CTRP.png

http://www.chrono-trigger.com

The Chrono Trigger Remake Project is a total conversion for Unreal Tournament 2004 based on the Square-Enix game, Chrono Trigger. We are working to achieve a fun remake true to the original game with a few cool revamped things (such as mini-games, side quests, new events, and a co-op mode). The Chrono Trigger Remake Project team intends to build up their experience with this task of remaking the original CT, while having fun recreating their favourite scenes, characters, and locations from the original game. This project is a just a tribute, and should be conisdered equal to any fanart or fanfiction already existent over the internet. In the future the Project might move to the next Unreal engine in order to have the best engine there is. If our experience lets us, we might even try to build an engine ourselves or use the Unreal Engine 2 Runtime and thus allow people who don't have Unreal Tournament 2004 to play this awesome game.

The Project's main objective is to totally recreate the feeling of the original game, in a way the old fans may remember how it was played the original deal back in 1995 while the new players enjoy the game with reworked graphics. That way it will be possible to select if the player wants to play the original work (in 3D of course) or the new mode with the added exras (mini-games, side quests and events). If time and our skills permit, a multiplayer mode will be added, where players can battle each other or play through the game with a companion. This Project isn't easy and shouldn't be taken lightly; we're serious, even if it takes 5 years or more to finish this project, we will work slowly, but we won't disregard our quality standards -- we will release soomething worthy of the Chrono Trigger name. The Project is a fan made tribute and doesn't intend to harm in any way the awesome Square Enix Chrono franchise; that way, you will be able to obtain the game free when it's released. If by any means we don't achieve our game quality standards, we won't release the game. Chrono Trigger is a masterpiece in its original format, and should not be disrespected in any way.

Any CT fan who thinks that might have somthing to contribute to the project can try to get in contact with us. Remember, we're always looking for help.

Requirements:

Any applicant should at least post/email etc. examples of his work, the CTR Project team will consider them and get in contact with the applicant. If any answer doesn't come up in the next days the applicant shouldn't worry; it's normal in these kind of fan projects that the team takes time to get all the teammates opinions. Remember, we have lives too. Every new applicant should agree to the NDA.

Currently needed most: Texturers, Character Modelers, Character Animators, Unreal Script Coders. Please apply here.
