Yasunori Mitsuda
"Chrono Trigger" writer Masato Kato both directed and wrote the main scenario. Due to his attitude at the time, the plot and tone were considerably darker than "Chrono Trigger", though the additional scenarists wrote alternate scenarios with comedic tones. The music was scored by Yasunori Mitsuda, who had worked on "Chrono Trigger". Production was completed in three months, and Kato was left unsatisfied with its quality.
