Logo design proposal

[teneresa]

Dear Sirs,
hi, my name is Valeria. I'm a graphic designer and I'd like to collaborate on your open source project and propose free logo design for your game Children of Solarus. If it's something you're interested in, please, let me know!
Best,
Valeria

Hi, I already made a logo and its pixel-art counterpart:

• https://github.com/solarus-games/children-of-solarus/blob/dev/art_src/logo/ChildrenOfSolarus-logo-highres.png

• https://github.com/solarus-games/children-of-solarus/blob/dev/art_src/title/sprites/title_logo.png

You can find sources for the logo in this repository, if you want to improve it.

You can still propose another logo.

Hi, yes, I would love to improve the logo you have! Will you use it on the website only or somewhere else?
Best,
Valeria

Cool, your contributions are welcome !
In the project's repository, you can find an EPS file the logo (vectorized) and a PSD file for its pixel-art version.

Chatting about the project is done here: https://gitter.im/solarus-games/children-of-solarus

Github issues are more adapted to bugfixes and stuff like that. Come on our Gitter channel. @Diarandor will be glad to have one more person to help on the project.

[teneresa]

Thanks for the invitation! I will join the chat shortly.

It seems that without your github email I can't add you directly to the channel of Children of Solarus. Or maybe you need a gitter account.

Dear sirs,
As per our conversation on your Gitter channel, I've prepared some new versions of your logo.
Please, have a look!
As it was agreed with Olivier, I used his main concept. I think that it's really nice!
I made a symbol which you can use in the future as an icon or in some other way. And the font I used for the logo has the license that allows its commercial use.
All the versions are 100% vector.

Your comments are very welcome! :)

omg. I'm not a person with any decision-making power on this project, but I think this is absolutely fantastic!

The b/w version and no. 2 are my favorites.

[oclero]

The second one is just great ! Perfect for a Nintendo-like ARPG game !

[teneresa]

Thanks for your kind words! If you accept it, I'll prepare all the required files for the 2nd variation and create a pull-request.

[teneresa]

Here is a pixel version of the 2nd variation. Please let me know which formats of the files do you need?

[oclero]

Nice ! Could you limit the number of colors (posterize, correcting a bit by hand, or other technique), to get a true old-school feeling ?

[teneresa]

Hi Olivier, here is a new version of pixel logo with two color options.
