Logo Design Brief
We're looking for a new logo for the MonoGame open source game development framework (http://www.monogame.net/). MonoGame is written in the C# language and runs on over 10 platforms including PlayStation4. Our focus is with mainly indie game developers and small independent game studios. MonoGame was developed by 100s of volunteers over the last 5 years.
Our current ideas/inspiration/concept for the new logo:
- The definition of Mono being "one, alone, single".
- MonoGame is one framework for creating powerful cross-platform games.
- MonoGame is the one tool an indie game developer needs.
- MonoGame lets you use one code base to target many different platforms.
- MonoGame is community driven and maintained.
Our requirements for the logo:
- We want a completely new design not based on our current logo.
- Looking for a symbolic/iconic logo style that is simple and highly distinctive.
- Should be easily recognizable among other game and software logos.
- Avoid easily dated game and technology shapes like joysticks, gamepads, tablets, laptops, etc.
- No mascots or characters.
- The logo shape should work stand alone without text for application icons and thumbnails.
- Works in full color, two color, and monochrome.
- We would like to experiment with alternate capitalization for the MonoGame name.
- The MonoGame text should work below or to the right of the logo shape.
