Dunno if anyone else here on the forums knew of this game. It is a fan made sequel to the original Chrono Trigger in which development/release was halted due to a cease and desist order served by square-enix. Anyway it was psyched up quite a bit on the internet a few months back only to seemingly never see the light of day. Here is an old excerpt from a news site:
Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes was a fan project modification of the Chrono Trigger ROM begun in late 2004. Development continued thanks to a dedicated group of fans through 2009. By May 2009, the game featured ~35 hours of game play, 10 multiple endings, and 23 chapters, much like the original Chrono Trigger; it was around 98% complete. The plot featured the original cast as they struggled against a new villain risen from the legacy of Zeal.
Fortunately for people like me who really looked forward to playing this... its been leaked
hope i'm not breaking any rules by posting a link if so plz remove:

Personally, I'm not really very familiar with Chrono Trigger. But my uncle is, and he's very excited about this project. Thanks from him.

Is this the one where you start out as Magus in a snowy area? If it is I have played the older release, but could never beat the first boss about ~5 minutes in, even though I tried like a hundred times.

No, The one where you play as Magus is another romhack from the same team I believe (which ties the story's together). I think it was called Chrono Trigger: Prophet's Guile. Crimson Echoes is a continuation of the story from the first game. It has been reported that you should use the most recent version of zsnes or bsnes to play these games.
