Thoughts On Game Icon?

Throughout my games history i have had many logos representing the season my game is in, but what the community thinks is what i am asking for today. Criticism is appreciated.

Current Logo
Meeskop's%20Neighborhood%20Summer%20Logo

Other Logos From The Past

Meeskop%20neigh%20spring
Winter

This One Is Fall
Meeskop%20Neighborhood%20Fall

Hmm…the text at the top is what concerns me.

  • The green text seems to be too close to the top edge.
  • The “Summer” text could be arranged to not overlap the green text.
  • What software was used for the creation of the logo? The text itself seems to be of low resolution.

Otherwise, the rest of the image seems very good.

i used

for the logo

its basically a good free photo editor i can make some really cool things with this

Thanks for your feedback! :smiley:

Looks quite unprofessional especially that free model car. You should try using a less contrasting colour scheme and a different font. Also try using different positioning for the text.

The P is covered by the S btw

The image overall is a nice concept, however it looks very discomforting because of the bad mix of colours. If you are trying to show that it is summer, the jeep shouldn’t be blue. Summer is all about the warm colours (white, red, orange, yellow etc.) but the colours should be vibrant and have a glow to them.

The jeep is too big which makes the text placement very limited, make the jeep smaller or remove the text if the image itself can give the message “its summer”. If your game is about a Neighbourhood, try emphasising someone at the beach or having a picnic.

Try to make your icon as simple as possible, it seems that what your icon is trying to be is a game decal rather than an icon.

Edit:

You’d want to use something like Paint.net instead of an online editor. Paint.net has the tools capable of making very nice icons and it’s a free software.

The Jeep is the main thing or symbol of my game.

Yeah but you should try to use a custom jeep if you want more players. Maybe try editing the design of the headlights?

If people see a huge free model in your game icon I doubt they will have a food first impression.

Analysis


MY EYES!
The sun rays appears to bug me when it comes to the text. You should probably move the text layer over the rays, or else I can’t read them for less than 5 seconds.

FMs are fine, as long the developer is improving themselves over time.

Summary & Suggestion
The icon is at least better than your previous ones.

Additional details could be something that represents summer around the foreground?

so far im in the process of redesigning everything in my game, so im trying to get as much criticism and ideas for my builds as i can. im revamping my game as part of my 1000 visits update.

Some suggestions:


  • The two differing fonts is very unappealing to me and I think the fonts should be very similiar or the same.

  • The green text colour is a little bit unclear especially with some of the sun .

  • Maybe blur the background Image more and make it focus on the car. Another Idea to go with this is instead of the car, it could be a object associated with that season with a blurred background. For eg. If it was summer you could have an ice-cream and an exclusive summer only ice-cream store in the game just for that season.

  • I don’t like the smashed glass effect in the old images. I think you shouldn’t use that effect.

  • Try seeing what it looks like with the text on the bottom.


Hope a few of these helped,Good luck.:slightly_smiling_face:

The text and font aren’t amazing, change them, make them more eye popping, do some nice designs.

Pixlr is pretty bad when you compare it with paintdotnet. Pixlr’s main purpose is not for creating icon but instead of editing photo. The text “Summer” looks like unaligned (for me) by the way.
