Mt. Woe (CTP)

General Information[edit]

Chrono Trigger Prerelease[edit]

Era: 12000 B.C.
Music: Strong Wind

The most obvious difference of note are several very visible tileset glitches. The treasure chests, dirt patches, and rocks at the very bottom of the ledges, are all either in a preliminary state, or are outright corrupt. Design-wise, a somewhat-glitched platform in the upper right corner was removed from final, and the double chain connecting to it was reduced to a single chain, which now connects to the next area. Two treasure chests were removed, and two others were repositioned slightly. More detail, such as extra rocks and flowers, was also added to the final, and the lower right corner of the middle-right platform was extended for some reason. The main area of the mountain is not significantly different in the prototype. More of the same tileset glitches seen previously still exist here, with the treetop graphics also showing the same unfinished state. A small cliff was removed from the middle-right platform, the chain in the bottom-right corner was altered slightly, and the treasure chest near it was moved up a little bit.

Several chains were repositioned in the final, making the area a bit more straightforward, but also allowing for a few side-paths where treasure chests are located. The middle-right platform was moved up a fair distance, and the chain connecting to the summit was shortened considerably as a result. In addition, the lower right platform was altered, probably to remove the illusion of another path in that direction. Finally, most of the treasure chests were either moved or deleted entirely. This screen consisting of two long chains connects the last area of Mt. Woe to its summit. It was removed entirely in the final, and you're taken directly to the summit from the last area instead. The final chain leading to the summit is doubled in width. The summit is also changed; a second platform exists behind the first, containing what looks like some kind of statue or mask for Giga Gaia (which glows). Giga Gaia also seems to erupt with a worm-like torso.
