Invercargill Game Developers

It was a great meet up on Thursday for this new club. I'm looking forward to talks about business and legal stuff but also the potential for a game-jam next year. I joined a bunch of groups about games on fb which might be good to show my stuff on to get some feedback sometime.

Last night I started working on a potential logo for the group and here's my process:

I was inspired by the knew Invercargill logo and the 'd pad' on a game controller
The colour scheme was difficult, I tried to take the colours from the big poster in town but they were quite bright and clashy for my liking.
 I was tempted by the blue and then went through different types of text:



I mocked up some stuff the logo could go on. I guess it's merch but not really. The font I went with is called Kickflip and I thought the grey and dark blue was the best colour scheme.


I've put it into Illustrator and perfected the shapes and circles and text:


colour version


black and white version


Transparent version
