    I'm glad you never found out what was potentially stalking you. Definitely made the right choice to leave asap with branches breaking nearby. I wouldn't want to encounter a bear out in the wild, especially at night after some drinks, even if I would be armed.

    Love the story behind the Saturn version. This game is straight up my alley. Can't believe I've never heard of it.

    Lovely video about Enemy Zero! Thanks for covering it! Surprised you didn't get into the story about how Kenji Eno forced the composer to write for him lol

    Kenji Eno was definitely a colorful character. He even made a game for blind people!
    I remember many years ago hearing about enemy zero from one of my classmates I thought it was an interesting concept to have invisible enemies.
    The game does give you a tutorial in beginning on how the mechanics work but they give you visible spheres to practice and then make them invisible. I think Kenji Eno may have gotten idea from “Alien” movies where they had that Motion detector thing to see how close Xenomorphs were. It is a great game I may give it another go … but I’ll roll my eyes at the ending.

    A good concept to have elements where there are no weapons, more akin to real life.

      Yes you are 100% underpowered and at risk and it’s an effective suspense builder

    Remember, you have to stare your enemy in the eyes and never look away. Just like taking care of a baby!
    Ah, the script for this game is really something. As it is for most of Kenji Eno's games.

    Let me tell you my story of this game ... I have a story of PDS also
    So, I wasn't able to get this game when it came out. FFWD to 2016 ... I found it at a thrift store, it had just came in hadn't even been checked in and processed. I grabbed it from the counter and the lady said, we have to check it first you can't buy it yet. I said, "Ok ... But you don't have to open the game." It was a sealed brand new copy. Then she says, "we have to open it and make sure the contents are all in tact." ... Like if she knew what the contents are haha
    It's ok I didn't care ... I got me this game complete in box brand-new for 10 bucks ... Like a year later I bought all 4 discs on eBay for 50 bucks I think. They are loose and I am looking for the box and manual.
    Thank for this video my friend!

    Enemy Zero is one of those games I have yet to sit down and play despite being keenly interested in it. This and D2 are both on my bucket list to play, although I don't really feel that same urge towards D1 for some reason.
    Anyway, in regsrds to some Saturn games I'd like to see you test on the channel, those would be Deep Fear (I can't remember if you've tested this again recently or not.), the U.S. prototype to he specific... and Resident Evil. I'm quite curious to see how compatible these two are on the most current version of the core, because if they're one-to-one on MiSTer when compared to original hardware then I think I'll replay them both again just to see if I can detect any differences from when I first completed them on the core.
