    Greetings Sentinels,It’s been a while since we last checked in. We know many of you have been waiting to hear more about Chrono Odyssey, and we’ve been following the discussions, questions and feedback you’ve shared along the way. We truly appreciate everyone who has continued to follow and support the game. Development is ongoing in a number of areas from new content to improvements to the overall game experience. Today, we’d like to share a brief update on one area in particular: PC optimization. Optimization UpdatePerformance and stability were among the most common concerns raised during the Closed Beta Test, particularly around frame drops and crashes. We also saw cases where the game struggled to run smoothly even on higher-end PCs. Ensuring stable performance on a wide range of PC hardware remains a key priority for the development team. Alongside our internal optimization efforts, we’ve partnered with Quasar Zone, an IT and hardware media community, to evaluate the game across a broader range of systems. Quasar Zone has extensive experience benchmarking and analyzing PC performance for a number of globally recognized games. As part of this collaboration, we're testing Chrono Odyssey on various hardware configurations to identify potential performance bottlenecks and other issues that could impact the gameplay experience. Our testing covers frame rate stability, rendering performance, and other factors that can affect how the game runs on different PC specifications. Beyond PC optimization, work is also underway on character movement and animations, input…

    Greetings SentinelsIn Developer's Note #5, we would like to focus on the Matrix System, which plays a vital role in combat and class progression, alongside several other development updates. Beyond refining hitbox detection and the tactile feedback of combat, we have focused on addressing class imbalances and combat redundancy. By introducing the Matrix System, we aim to deliver deeper mechanical complexity and a more dynamic gameplay experience. (The following details are currently under development and are subject to change)The Matrix SystemThe Matrix System is a node-based progression system that moves away from linear paths, allowing characters to be tailored to specific combat styles. This system is designed to maintain the unique identity of each class and weapon while offering a more specialized combat experience. Even within the same weapon, combat styles are further diversified based on the stats allocated through the Matrix, acquired passive skills, and the attributes of equipped gear. Within the Matrix, players can direct their progression to suit their specific needs. Meeting specialization requirements unlocks unique skills and stats that refine each combat style. As choices influence casting speeds, effects, and combat rhythm, even the same skill can feel distinct, enabling players to experiment and master their own personalized meta. Since primary skills and combat patterns change depending on the progression path, the variety in character specialization and combat utility will be significantly expanded. We look forward to sharing more specific details about…

    Greetings Sentinels,As a follow up on the last Developer’s Notes #3, this fourth installment focuses on specific improvements to combat. The updates we are sharing today represent our path forward in light of diverse player feedback, as well as deep internal deliberation within the development team. We hope this note conveys our commitment to refining the combat experience. Beyond the highlights listed below, various other improvements are being implemented across the entire combat system on both macro and micro levels.(The following details are currently under development and are subject to change)Developer's Notes #41.

Controls and ResponsivenessFeedback from the first Closed Beta Test indicated that character reactions (including movement, jumping, and combat) felt sluggish relative to player key inputs. We have implemented the following changes to provide a more fluid and intuitive experience. Camera Direction and MovementPreviously, movement and skill usage were tied to camera direction. This often required excessive input to change attack directions or dodge effectively, particularly on controllers. To reduce fatigue and heighten the sense of action, we have decoupled movement from the camera. Now, players can move in any direction regardless of camera…
