Happy Halloween! Content update jumpscare!
After replaying the entire series in the Legacy Collection, we relived things we loved, and things we didn’t: like getting Zenny from S-ranks. In Chrono X, we made S-ranks consistently drop BattleChips. I’m glad this was well-received from the latest release, since we wanted to make a tougher game with good reward incentives.
But this proposes a slight issue: how do you acquire money if you’re doing really, really well? In the games, you got money on S-ranks sometimes to help you buy chips and such. There’s a few solutions I’m sure you could brainstorm to solve this, so here’s one we’re going with: Star Rank!
If you go the extra mile with a Counter, you have a shot of acquiring currency…or even a second BattleChip! Double up and double down on your capabilities and you’ll find great success. While S-ranks aren’t required, it’s still an extra shot of sugar in the form of money or even more power. Now…throw in a Battle Green Mystery Data and you’ll get a third drop.
I told Max to give me something new that’s both future content, a revision of the old, and something I’ll personally get a lot of fun with. That might be next. We’re making lots of progress on sprites, and that’s music to my ears.
As always, thank you for your interest. Thank you for your love. And thank you for your support.
