Gameplay Video; See CT2 in action!
I'd like to see a game that is like Chrono Trigger but takes it up a notch. I understand this is early stage video, and just the first boss, but if you just transfer the original game into 2k3 it's not going to be that great(story aside).
In CT you fight that boss and only have 1 skill, well in your game just make up new skills(like buffs) to make it more exciting. Give the player more than what they had at that point in the original. Low numbers, few skills, no combo system on top of the bad DBS will make for a boring game. I like the original CT but the first hour or so is boring as hell.
That's just my point of view. I don't want to play something that is exactly like CT with a different story.
*This post is about the game, not the video. I'm not coming to this conclusion based on just the video, btw. The video shows a good foundation for a CT-like battle system.
CT only had the combo system going for it, without that the game would have been pretty boring and no different from other strong attack spamming combat systems. Since that's not possible in 2k3 it's already not going to be like the original.

Isn't this Chrono Trigger 2
Why does it not have Chrono Trigger combat

The fact that it has so much vulgar language turns me off instantly. Full of bugs and bad dialogue, over 90 hours to beat? are you out of your fucking mind?!...yeah, this review needed to be written. To tell the truth! Good job.
The number of downloads on this game seems kind of fishy too....it's only been up for like 6 months.
*edit: it's not even the download size. I mean, people viewing the gamepage can only go by what information is given. The screenshots don't show anything impressive, most look on par with the hundreds of other mediocre games that have less than 100 downloads, and that space screen is downright awful. Maybe it doesn't look as bad in motion, I don't know, but it's definitely a bad choice of screen shot. So there is only the description. It's very well writen and reeks of bs. It doesn't really go into detail on what is in the game, but has these sentences that make it seem like whatever is in there is fucking awesome. It has poor english which should clue you into what to expect in game. It's actually quite funny that it appears like the biggest draw to the game is the expected play time xD People even state that the only reason they are interested in the game is that it claims to take over 90 hours. This review also makes it very clear why it takes over 90 hours. The developer seems more competent than the average Joe Dickweed, this game supposedly has all kinds of edits to the DBS. It seems to be riddled with bugs though, probably because of those edits. Compare it to the other hugely popular games on the site. Some of which have been up for several times longer and have close to the same if not less downloads. It just doesn't add up. It doesn't help that the download counter is ridiculously easy to fool, you don't even have to download. As long as the download button is clicked, you can hit cancel and you got a download counted. This just seems like one of those greasy used car dealers who can make a lemon seem like gold. If these were legitimate downloads, then good for you. I'm not trying to undermine your "success". I'm just very skeptical and sad to see a game like this get more publicity than games that deserve it more. To think that 4000+ people spent over 100 hours on this game breaks my heart.

Sometimes when I have image problems I'll open the problem file, highlight what I want, and copy. Then I take a file that is known to work and paste it in, save as new file, and use that.
*it could cause color/palette issues but it might be easier to fix that then to fart around with the original file

Guess what, Tardis? I'm back.

Scattering objects like that is better than empty space in maps, but it would look even better if there were clumps of objects and some group formations. It looks incredibly cluttered and there is no sense of direction. If I was walking through a forest that looked like that all the way through, I wouldn't be able to tell if I already walked by a certain part.

Is the INN just one building? The way each roof appears to be separate it kinda looks like 4 houses bunched together. The biggest program is the difference of roof tiles in the middle part and the sides. The wall pieces that touch the ground have a lining of brown bricks along the bottom then the part at the top(which I assume is the second floor) also uses the same tiles so it gives the appearance that it's touching the ground and makes it look like a second small house behind the INN.
I can kind of see what you were going for, but it just doesn't work.

Is that the normal color of the boss or is it "flashing"? That looks kinda bad, its the mix of purpleish with blue-greenish
