Background
Game developer and publisher created by Trevor Chan in 1993.

1st Logo (1995)
Logo: We see "ENLIGHT SOFTWARE" made fully from blue grid lines. Each letter has a small node. There is a byline just below the middle part, reading "Enlightening Entertainment".

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on Capitalism.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (1996)
Logo: A new design is seen. It shows the rhombic yellow platform with two connected blue letters Brush Script MT (set in the Brush Script font) hanging over it (rotated 45 degrees). The name ENLIGHT SOFTWARE appears below. There is a yellow box even below, reading "ENLIGHTENING ENTERTAINMENT", the same byline from the first logo. The website appears below.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Was seen on Capitalism Plus, which is long out of print.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (1997-2003)
Logo: A bright blue flash occurs and silver connected ES letters zoom in rotating. The yellow platform is created for them in another splash, and the letters are placed over, becoming blue. The name "ENLIGHT SOFTWARE" is created by letters sliding from right side, and shines.

Variants:


 * Early version of this logo was still. It was accompanied with yellow "CREATED BY" above and website below.
 * In Fryhtan Wars, the logo missed the yellow bylines and the splash.

FX/SFX: Logo animation, including the flashes and moving figures.

Music/Sounds: Sound of swirling and electronic pings

Availability: Seen on Hotel Giant and Capitalism II. Early version appeared on Seven Kingdoms and its addon Ancient Adversaries. Short logo appeared on Seven Kingdoms II: Fryhtan Wars.

Editor's Note: None.

4th Logo (2003)
Logo: We start with the view on a cybernetic city in twilight, crossed with skyscrapers and trains. Then we move high and see the pattern of buildings from above. They form "ENLIGHT". Then everything fades out, leaving only gray word made from towers and several moving vehicles around. Then it becomes blue.

FX/SFX: The moving patterns and vehicles, the panning.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on X2: The Threat.

Editor's Note: None.

5th Logo (2003-)
Logo: We move between the silver curve tubes lying on the same-colored surface. These tubes appear to be connected ES letters, and we move out to see the usual logo, only in silver. Then the name is wiped and emits light, and the logo regains its colors.

FX/SFX: Animation of the logo.

Variant: A very different still logo was used on the demo version of Scrapland. It was made of neon tubes attached to the wall with game symbols.

Music/Sounds: A hollow sound representing the movement between tubes.

Availability: Seen on Scrapland, Warlords Battlecry III and other games.

Editor's Note: None.
