10 Secret Video Game Endings For Doing The Impossible

10. Developer Ending - Chrono Trigger

Chrono Trigger is a classic JRPG about a group of unlikely heroes traveling through time to stop an alien parasite called Lavos from sucking the world dry.

Fighting Lavos early on without the skills and knowledge you acquire during your time-travel adventures is meant to be an impossible challenge that leads to a bad ending where the giant larva destroys the world.

However, as years of speedruns and exploits have proven, this impossible fight is actually winnable, even without relying on New Game Plus features.

If you manage to bend the rules of the game a little and bring down Lavos in the intro, you get to see a secret developer ending, where in-game depictions of the actual creators of Chrono Trigger invite you to their studio and congratulate you on achieving the impossible.

The ending is a huge interactive experience that's unlike any other ending in the game. It's also filled with tons of gags and inside jokes that make beating impossible odds completely worth it.

It's nice to see developers be good sports about people messing with their game for a change.
