A winning, small-matrix rendition of this super-elliptical monoline sans. If you’d like, please enjoy a private clone to tour the brand-spankin’ new interiors.
I embraced innovation at the expense of imperfection with faux-curve composite stacks. These custom bricks are used to resolve the most glaring proportion issues besetting version 1 (and 2’s) capitals. I risk intermittent aliasing as well as potential inconsistencies in both curvature and stroke contrast. Yet these composite-stack discontinuities (A,C,D,G,J,O,Q,S,U,V) marry unexpectedly well with the extensively used macaroni bricks and remain themselves smooth up to an impressive 72pt.
Manual kerning leaves a lot of room for improvement. The alternates are included mostly for curiosity’s sake. Another work in progress with samples to follow. Feedback is always very appreciated; thanks in advance for it! :)

Latin block is traced from Linux stock VGA8 font. Designed to fit 8x8 grid including spacing, so most symbols are 7x7 =WARNING= Line spacing is stuck and cannot be edited within FontStruct, you can edit it manually, see http://designwithfontforge.com/en-US/Line_Spacing.html for example.
ChronoType is not the first recreation of the original Chrono Trigger font on the web, but certainly the most accurate and comprehensive you'll find.
The font is based on the complete set of the game's official and fan-translated characters and thus also features the Japanese hiragana and katakana alphabets as well as Cyrillic and Greek letters, countless additional stuff like special characters, unique glyphs, and whatnot.
The base font size and recommended setting for ChronoType is 16pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning and no additional smoothing effects for the ultimate Chrono Trigger experience.
Chrono Trigger on the SNES was developed and published by Square in 1995.
