Visual style is amazing, great soundtrack, and the gameplay and pacing is upgraded from the original release.

With a variety of user generated content, GWYF provides hours of replayablity made even better by the online multiplayer.

I purchased this game with high expectations and quickly grew more and more disappointed with the game. Living up to the expectations of Chrono Trigger is a tall order. It is clear to see that aspects of the game do indeed pay homage to Chrono Trigger in the form of the Active Time Battle system and thematic elements in the game of the main characters, but it all falls short.
From the start I had experienced technical issues with using an Xbox One controller. The buttons A, B, X, and Y, did not respond past the initial key mapping configuration. I had to fall back on keyboard controls which is not ideal for the game.
I did initially enjoy the piano OST, but after an hour in, I grew tired of the same tunes and fanfares (maestosos) playing on what seemed like a very short loop.
I would have like to see more variety then the tundra/snow motif. The battle system is kind of like Chrono Trigger, if not slower and less varied. There is the ATB bar that dictates the pace of the battle and the player has the ability to learn and build combos with other party members. To me it felt unfulfilling and lacking depth.
In the end, this game makes we want to replay Chrono Trigger more than anything else.

If you are a fan of the original Audiosurf, I highly recommend Audiosurf 2. The improved visuals are great and the Steam Workshop really adds to the game. I enjoy chilling out and playing my favorite music when I just want to relax.
