Bought an Enterprise a couple of months ago, and put together this little demo quickly so that it code be shown at Function.
Why Function? Well, the Enterprise, while being a UK computer failed in the rest of Europe, but when the company went bankrupt it seems the remaining stock was shipped of to in Hungary, so compared to most other countries the number of machines there was quite high.
I felt that the audience at Function perhaps had the best chance to actually recognize this odd machine! :)

Hell yeah!

Underrated platform needs more demo's.

Wow cool!! Nice colourful and fluid! :)

Amazing plasmas and twister on a very cool platform! Loved to listen Vixen's tune on the enterprise ;)

Would be a platform insta-thumb, but the demo is easily worth a thumb up even if the enterprise had loads of demos :-)

like it!

Somebody should tell SDW that "I like platform games" does NOT means to get up every day, buy a new obscure platform and make twister, plasmas and scroll work smoothly with a catchy tune ;-)

Platform + nice execution. Bonus for the Vixen tune, loved it back then ;)

Cool demo first thing i seen on this platform, and guessed it was by SDW before seeing it :D

A great demo for an interesting machine.

only 14 prods for Enterprise on pouet! remember this machine very well - a lot of articles in russian magazines was published back in 1988s

Like hell we did! :D How can you forget a machine that had a built-in joystick? :D

Liked the colourful shearing rasterbars.

This was a well-deserved win and looked great on the livestream too :)

Nice effects, even though I have seen similar on the ST/STe before it is good to see them on a relatively unknown platform. The Enterprise system was one of a number that were riding (at least in the UK) on the bandwagon of the Spectrum but due to little or no software support from the big games houses meant that the hardware died a death, commercially at least.

But there again, that just shows the short-termism of most if not all UK companies. Even despite the hardware being better too.

Looking forward to seeing more productions on this and other rarer machines in due course :)

Pretty common effects. Thumb mostly goes for Shadow tackling yet another platform :)

This really shows what the machine is capable of!

I like the FX ! Great platform too ! Thx for this demo !

Tasteful 8 bit delicacy on an obscure platform

Great platform and good demo! Cool

Never heard of this machine before, specs seem nice to work on that machine...i really wonder why only so few demos exist for this then.

Really nice multi-screener once again, shadow...it even has some design-elements and i wonder what we´ll see next from you...i hope you stick a bit to the enterprise, as this is so good already, i wonder what you can get out of it once a bit deeper into it! :)

wth is Enterprise?! Thumb for platform and demo! Music felt misplaced somehow.
rulez added on the 2016-10-25 13:56:02 by Emod Emod
Very nice! it looks like that Enterprise is quite powerful and much more than Amstrad CPC 6128: hey, look at those colors! Yet another Platform by Shadow. Bravo.
rulez added on the 2016-12-05 09:27:25 by Overflow Overflow
It's really a good demo, very CPC-like in its approach. Bravo!
If only real hardware could be cheaper..

Very nice show

Wow, really neat stuff. It has got me wondering about the true demo potential of this obscure machine!

Shadow, as always, delivers good stuff in yet another 8-bit platform.
I wasn't expecting that old (and good) tune from 1988!
Cool stuff. Nice plasma and great graphics.

No idea about the Computer itself yet...gotta have to read some next, i guess!

But the diagonal Bars were super-smooth and a splendid Effect!

Also the Rubber was just georgeous! ;)
