Hey everyone,

Thank you all again so much for continuing to support the Steam version of CHRONO TRIGGER. Today we’ve released the fourth patch, and here is a list of all the updates:

• Changes to the menu UI
  
  1. We’ve changed the user interface (operation method and screen layout) of the following screens to make it more comfortable to play with controller or keyboard.
     
  2. Menu screen
     
  3. Title screen (including title menu)
     
  4. You can select interface either "gamepad/keyboard" or "touch panel/mouse" from "settings" in the menu.
     
  5. Title screen is the same regardless of your settings.
     
  6. The UI updates that we first outlined in patch #2 are now complete as of this patch. However, we will continue to keep adjusting the UI where necessary.
• Other adjustments and revisions
  
  1. In the settings menu, "Movement" has been removed, based on UI changes.
     
  2. Small bugs are fixed

The ability to rebind buttons for controllers, keyboard and mouse has unfortunately been delayed and will instead be added in patch #5, which is due to be released in late July.

As there are a number of mini games in CHRONO TRIGGER that require player input based on the names of controller buttons, we need to take some time to adjust the game rules and key binding feature to work with all of these. We apologise for any inconvenience caused, but please keep an eye out for the next update.

Thanks again from everyone on the CHRONO TRIGGER team for all of your support.

Hi everyone,
First of all we’d like to share with you what this patch will adjust in CHRONO TRIGGER on Steam:

• Character sprites and background graphics adjusted to be more in-line with the original style of CHRONO TRIGGER. This can be selected from the menu as “Original” graphics, and is the new default selection.
  
• The font has been updated to give the game a more classic look.
  
• Text which did not match the game experience on PC has been revised, and a large number of other text issues have been corrected.
  
• Fixed the way the word “TRIGGER” is displayed as it floats in on the title screen.
  
• Adjusted the order of the demo video and animated opening sequence from the title screen to be more in-line with previous versions of the game.
  
• The background gradient of each text window has been adjusted to make it darker towards the bottom.

Here are some sample screenshots to give you an idea of how the game will look after you’ve installed the patch and selected the relevant options.

Secondly, we’re working on adjusting the UI in CHRONO TRIGGER on Steam and are aiming to introduce these changes in future updates. Here are some of the changes which will be introduced in future patches.

• The UI will be adjusted to optimize PC play (using either a controller or keyboard)
  
• An option will be added to select between a UI optimised for controller/keyboard and one optimised for mouse/tablets.

We’re working as quickly as we can as many of the features you’ve been requesting to CHRONO TRIGGER on Steam and we will post another update here as soon as possible.

Thanks again from everyone on the CHRONO TRIGGER team for all of your support.
