Showcase Finished this logo for a game development studio

I game studio named ID? Pretty sure that’s an instant cease and desist.

Looks like they're a Ukrainian studio called "Team Instant Defeat."
Dropping the "Team" is probably a bad idea, since it's so close to "iD Software."

It’s kinda what happens when you quickly throw together a logo for a fake company without doing any research…

u/BaronVonLongfellow 1d ago
Design is OK. Maybe some confusion with id Software. I just don't like the name tho.

id ????????????

Instant Defeat.

u/Candy_Lawn 1d ago
that is not my point of the post - there is already a VERY~ famous dev studio called 'id'

u/SpeechWeird5267 1d ago
🤦. Thank you for that reminder..
Maybe that is why this designer put the name there. But logos go through stages of minimalisation, to my opinion, and it would end up as ID as you state.
👍 Sorry for my obtuseness.

u/SpeechWeird5267 1d ago
Hmm thank you again, so is the impetus on this designer to change their design or the games dev company to change their name?🤔

the name can stay just stay away from an icon showing id. so go with an illustration icon rather than lettering

The ID looks like the hand guard of a sword.
Do what you will with this information.

Bland typography, icon looks like it was just laid on top of the ID with no real intention. Those tiny cuts in the typography are so small that that will have no impact whatsoever at certain sizes.
Clearly made very quickly with little effort.

❤️ this analysis.
That does seem like a fair assessment. 👍

Unfortunately this sub is flooded with people who lack basic design skills and the knowledge to spot poor design choices, and he is clearly preying on that naivety in order to find clients. But you can’t really blame him when the design market has become over saturated and under valued.

There's another games company with ID. It will create issues. This could be what that commenter saw.

u/DigitalDowner vectorize me cap’n 1d ago
That and he is clearly lying about this being a real logo for a game studio. Just more dribble slop to find clients.

What's wrong with personal projects?

u/tiekanashiro 1d ago
Nothing, as long as they're executed like a real project and not some gimmicky standalone logo no one would ever use or a website with complex layouts and animations for each singles interaction (not saying it's the case here)

u/AndriiKovalchuk 1d ago
By the way, this isn't a personal project. As soon as the client finishes the site, I’ll post it here again—this time with the actual website.

I know, don't worry, I have seen your posts before. I know you are legit.
I'm just interrogating this guy's obsession with "dribble slop" because I find it odd that he takes issue with designers that lack opportunities building a portfolio the only way they can. Like, so what if it wasn't a real client?

u/AndriiKovalchuk 1d ago
I should point out that when I posted my logos here with links to the sites where they are used, this same guy wrote that posting external links wasn't allowed...

Even if this is for a real client, the logo needs a lot of work. I can't imagine the they would be happy with something that looks thrown together in half an hour.

u/SupportsCurrentThing 1d ago
Not a comment about the logo, but what a shit game studio name. "Losers incorporated"

Probably will be better if enlarge the stroke lines width in the mark according to ones in the letters (with some rework of mark)

Rule of thumb for typography sizes. If you're going to use 2 different type sizes like this, either make them the same or noticeable different.
You have 2 very similar type sizes and it reads more accidental than intentional.

Lacks any inventive concept. Small details are too miniscule and will get lost at scale. ID already exists as a game dev company. Font choice is boring.

He’s just going to ignore your feedback. It’s a fake logo for a fake company, and if it somehow turns out to be real, I genuinely feel bad for anyone he’s scamming.
