Create a Logo

[TurkeyMan]

Needs a logo + branding.
I chose the name 'FeedBack' because it seems applicable in the context of a rock-oriented music game, and also I saw some cool branding opportunities in the 'dB' appearing as the middle 2 letters of the name...

Any artists floating around?

Any symbols or anything you want in the logo? Any font preferences?

Wow. 3 years later! :)

Yeah, I have no strong ideas. I wouldn't want to bias creativity, other than the fact I think the central letters dB are a cute feature; decibel being the measure for volume/loudness ;)
I've used dB as the abbreviation for FeedBack since the start.

An obvious requirement is that modern logo's need to fit nicely into a square app icon for phones/appstores, but also scale to a nice horizontal-spanning fullscreen in-game logo.

And logically, it should be styled such that the look&feel of the default skin/theme can be derived. It's probably more practical to imagine the default skin/theme, and derive the logo from that actually...

I wonder if google images might present some ideas:

Cool, thanks for getting back to me so quickly! i do like the design of the decible meter, so maybe we could work that in?

[TurkeyMan]

Yeah, that's where my mind started, and influenced the name... like, over 10 years ago ;)

[ghost]

Haha, cool, i have to reinstall GIMP, so after that I'll work on this.

[TurkeyMan]

I also love nerdy and in-jokes... like, if there's a meter, it has to 'go to 11', and all that sort of thing :)

[ghost]

with tape over 12, as a reference to the intro screens?

[TurkeyMan]

It's a spinal tap reference ;)

[ghost]

Yeah, the intro cinematic to gh3 has an amp like that, with tape over the 11 saying 12 which is what I was saying. Also, there's an xkcd about it.

[TurkeyMan]

Hah! Man, I can't believe I missed that!

And the intro sequence is here.
