Kajar Laboratories / Making Chrono Break!

Hey Guys! I've bee n following Chrono Compendium since I was 10, and now I'm 27. I finally decided to create an account in the forums! I wanted to chat, and get to know other Chrono Lovers, but I also have another objective in mind, which you may want to hear about.

I want to make chrono break.

I'll write my story here so you guys can see why I'm capable of tackling such endeavor. If you're just interested in reading my idea, skip my personal story and jump right to the end of the post.
 
-----MY STORY-----

I was born in Colombia to a middle class family, and I had several problems in school because it was hard for me to find my place there. Everyone had to fit the mold, in Colombia religion is a most in schools, and all of this didn't quite fit with me, so while others were out doing friends and kid's life, I was inside playing videogames. I started playing on the SNES, but oddly enough, I didn't got to know the Chrono series until I had a PSOne, with Chrono Cross, and after with the Chrono Trigger Remaster, and it changed my life. Chrono cross became my favorite game ever, and since it was in english, which was not my mother language, I learned english to be able to enjoy it even more, and I'd set up every month to finish the game once again, just to keep the fond memories in my heart.
The dialogs with NPCs, the tone of the game, the beautiful landscapes, the amount of secrets and characters, it really inspired me. And it actually changed me as a person: I tried to go outside more, see this world with my own eyes, make friends, get to know people.
Once I finished school and went to the university at the age of 15, i didn't had any second thoughts on what I wanted to do: To make a living on making videogames.
But this is not something you can just do in Colombia, in fact, this is kinda only an option in rich countries, so I created this elaborate plan: I figured if I could become a programmer and become skilled enough, I would be able to get out of the country and switch industries to finally become a videogame designer. And that's what I setted myself to do.
It's been 12 years now, but the plan worked: I live now in Canada. I'm a videogame developper working for Beenox, and I have a couple of game jam games under my belt, and I run a small hobby game dev team. After all these years, I think I've finally prepared myself for the next challenge, something that has been on the back of my head for quite some years.

-----CHRONO BREAK-----

So this is the stuff: Chrono Break (or Chrono Brake) was supposed to be the next game of the franchise (this is speculation) since a mark was registered in the Us and Japan, but both of those are long since expired and the project is abandoned. since they expired, this means that anyone can now go ahead and use these names. Which is where us, the Chrono community, come in.
I think we can make the third game we've all been waiting for, we can co-write the story with all the community and lead a game design project, as long as we avoid touching the Square Enix registered trademarks or anything that would be a copyright infringement. That means we can't use names, or direct references in the game to characters, but this doesn't mean we can't  do indirect references, in fact, Chrono Cross did pretty much that almost all of the game with Chrono Trigger.
I'm looking for people with the expertise and will to join the dev team to tackle this project! please do write if you're interested on the topic, and just wanna discuss, or if you want to involve directly and you're a:

- Lawyer Proficient in USA or Japan Laws
- 3D Modeler
- C++ Developer
- Concept Artist
- Writer
- UI Artist
- Game Designer
- Musician

Thanks for your attention guys, keep dreaming!
