The period from the 1990s to the early 2000s is considered by many gamers (including myself) to be the golden age of JRPGs. During this era, many iconic titles like Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI, Super Mario RPG, Illusion of Gaia, Breath of Fire, EarthBound, The Legend of Dragoon, Grandia, and the recently remade Live a Live made their debut. These games, alongside hundreds of others, would amaze young gamers the world over with their timeless stories, magical worlds, memorable characters, and addictive gameplay.
As the years went by, many of those youngsters would grow up to become indie game developers, creating their own JRPGs inspired by the classics, which had left a lasting impression on them. These indie titles include the likes of Undertale, Chained Echoes, LISA: The Painful, CrossCode, Star Renegades, and today’s topic – Sea of Stars.
