Hello! A logo is needed for an upcoming visual novel game.
Theme: war, consciousness, philosophy, humanity, cyberpunk.
Tone: melancholic, mysterious, emotionally heavy, philosophical.
The logo should:
- evoke intrigue
- convey a sense of broken reality/system
- look like a serious narrative project (expansion of the game world is planned in the future)
And work on:
- Steam capsule
- covers
- trailers
- social media
Visual style:
- minimalism + stylishness
- “brokenness” / glitch effects
- slight asymmetry
- sense of system / technology / code
- a bit of “grime” (grain, noise, wear)
- visual accents
Colors:
- black and white
Several variants with color inversion for different backgrounds will need to be created.
Important notes:
- NOT pure sci-fi
- NOT clichéd sci-fi fonts
- NOT standard futuristic font
- NOT too clean / “corporate” look
- NOT bright colors
- NOT overloaded with details
Preferred:
- custom typography
- or strong font modification
Game references:
- Nier: Automata (Main)
- Nier: Replicant
- Nier: Reincarnation
- Signalis
- Soma
- Drakengard 3
- Death Stranding
Must provide:
- SVG (vector)
- PNG (transparent background)
- versions for light and dark backgrounds
After selecting a candidate, if necessary additional materials will be provided:
- character concepts
- UI style
- visual game guidelines
The finished work must be unique and handcrafted.
The use of generative AI as the basis for the logo is not allowed.
The use of AI is only permitted as an auxiliary tool at the idea or reference stage.
P.S.
This is not just a logo, but a part of the game's atmosphere.
It should evoke a feeling that a deep story lies behind it.
For our team, the creative approach and interest are very important. So if you have your own vision that enhances the concept - we are open to it.
When responding, please briefly describe your idea/approach to the logo for this project.
