Adventures in logo design

We already had a lot of cool animations (e.g.: loading)

So I played with this...


I converted it to standard square form...


In addition to the black hole, I also played with the sun...


At this point I was satisfied! So I asked for feedback from a design expert... She also liked the first version called "eclipse" (black hole + sun) the best!! Only the font is too thin...

... which is a problem because there's no thicker font from Dune Rise...

But I figured with a trick i could make it thicker! I added contour to it... Ladies and gentlemen, low and behold our logo:


In the eclipse version:

  • the sun is blurred in the background
  • our font is bolded
  • and layered so that the “sun can shine on it”

the end?

And now the same thing in 128KB

Yuck...


And in 64x64

Shit...

The lesson: the logo should be simpler...

ROUND 2

What if it were as simple as a circle?

What if it were big?

This is too simple...

But then God smiled upon me and sent me a sign

Back to work...

Started off with a rounded compass icon


Get the basics right


Work on the angles


Give it filling


Until it's finally right


This is it...


Some artwork

THE END?
