Chrono Cross meets Bravely Default in this re-imagination of Final Fantasy 5 with additional jobs and mechanics.
The main ideas were to make the battles more dynamic and give each character more, well, character. As a result of that every character has now access to an individualized job list of 21 out of total 31 jobs (freelancer is NOT available) while each job level now has a permanent impact on a character’s stats. For example klutz Bartz can not be a chemist and Lenna hasn’t it in her to go Berserker.
More dynamic battles are achieved via !Brave, !Def and field elements. Move a future turn to now with !Brave or take two turns at a later point with !Def while modifying the field elements to your liking with each skill or ability used. Changed field elements affect damage, healing and status effect chance.
Cute as Shell is a spin off of the Cute Kaizo series, only designed around shells and still be intended for beginners. The goal was to create an environment in which someone could comfortably introduce themselves to handling the kind of tricks and movements found in harder shell hacks.
