Without further ado

I present to you the name of the game: Smokehounds. It took me a long time coming up with a unique name that was fitting for the concept and feel that I'm going for. It's also very hard to try and not come up with just an uninspired cheesy title. It had to be something fresh and new but still touching on the game's theme and atmosphere. I believe this title does a good job of that. Next to conveying a feeling, the title also had to have a meaning. In this case the title itself has no definition, but the two words that it consists of do exist. This is where in my opinion the title succeeds because those two words give a hint of the game's atmosphere. Hopefully giving the sense of a smokey, film noir, detective feeling.

After the title I immediately began creating the logo of my game (as you've probably already seen, is in the header of my blog). I went for a text-logo instead of something symbolic. Experimenting with different font styles, I tried once again to convey a feeling. The big long letters of the title give it a somewhat futuristic (but not too much) feel and the subtitle written in calligraphy style gives it that old detective feel. Because the game takes place in Hong Kong, I thought it'd be fitting to also add Chinese characters (which stand for the words smoke and dogs). The background with the clouds, city lights, flying cars and searchlights is something extra to show that the story is taking place in a great big futuristic city. This imagery however is not part of the logo. Lastly I'd like to finish this update with a description of the game's story: 

The story begins with detective Oscar E. Doyle accepting a mysterious job from a woman. He wouldn't normally do cases this shadowy but as it seems, his old partner Melvin Acosta is caught up in this mess and could be in trouble. They stopped talking to each other a long time ago but still he goes ahead and takes the case. The generous reward also doesn't hurt. So the investigation starts and detective Doyle sets out to different parts of New Victoria City looking to solve the case and find his old friend. He quickly discovers that things aren't as they were told they'd be. The investigation takes him to unknown, dangerous places where he discovers plans he couldn't dare dream of.  -Detective Doyle is about to get the case of a lifetime in.. Smokehounds.
