- It uses the 'Staatliches' font to good effect
- This logo template allows you to use a tagline for your logo
For example, we changed this logo to different a purple background, and this is how it looks.
Or, you could even use a gradient background if you're a fan of gradients like us. We tried out a bluish gradient and we liked what we have. It retains the central colors in the middle of the logo while allowing the background to shine through.
Game logo template #2
The next template in our collection is a favorite amongst our users. :)
- It has a red gradient to it, which is ideal for its theme (devilish)
- The devil makes it appear quite sinister, although it is far from it
- Its tail gives it an artistic touch
- It allows you to have your short name displayed on it
We changed it to a yellowish theme without disturbing the devil in the foreground, and we were not disappointed with our choice. A yellow background makes the devil more friendly :)
