Vocaloid illustrator, Nozomi Ousaka, is designing the characters for Chronos Materia–Ousaka has also worked on Nichijo, K-ON!, and Chrome Shelled Regios. These characters’ names are Iris, Primula, Thyme, and Shion. An interesting fact is that all the character’s names are based on plants.
Also, Chronos Materia’s main theme and mechanics are based on the concept of time. The game has a system where you can change fate to break an eternal cycle. Which of course makes it easy to come back to earlier parts of the game and do better at those parts.
In Japan, Chronos Materia will be launching September 26th for 6,090 yen. I am looking forward to this PS Vita exclusive.
