People go tribal for the weirdest shit, I can't even imagine doing anything like that.

My favorite game is Chrono Trigger, if anyone decides to take the art style and game mechanics (and expand on them) from it to make a new game you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna play that shit, and will probably love it.

As a fan of Sega's Jet Set Radio, we got Bomb Rush Cyberfunk by an indie which is so much of a clone that it's considered an unofficial sequel, and we all love it.

Nice to see someone else who's favourite game is Chrono Trigger!

Ever play Sea of Stars?

Yep but imo it failed at improving/matching the original in one important aspect: the number of skills per character. A lot of the time it feels like you are missing the tools you need to 'solve' a turn. I got to the part where I got a boat and kind drifted off since, been meaning to come back tho.

Yes it seems that sometimes you can't stop an enemy attack. I wonder if that's by design.

The game certainly isn't as good as Chrono Trigger, but I'm enjoying it as a nice tribute.
