Great Northern Games Discord Logo
Adobe Illustrator
Branding (2024)
Logo and banner I designed in Adobe Illustrator for the Great Northern Games Discord, an online network of 500+ members of the UK game industry.
The brief asked for something fun and easily recognisable. Moreover, the design had to incorporate elements of the GaMaYo and Game Republic logos. After a few drafts playing around with the arrangement of the letters 'GNGD,' I thought of a symbol synonymous with fun - the SNES controller face buttons.
GaMaYo has a three colour logo, using a vibrant red, yellow, and green. The Game Republic logo's primary colour is a cool blue. These were the perfect fit for face buttons on a controller. The connecting bands around the face buttons were also a useful tool for directing the viewer's eye. Without them, you might read 'GNDG!'
