I thought I might get one or two people saying they liked the old version fo the logo better, but this is rediculous! :-)
The blurry background had to go, it looked unprofessional for a logo. I want to be able to put this on a business card.
I agree that it seems like there's a hole there now, but that hole can be filled. On a business card, one could put contact information there. (I'll have to play with the locations of stuff to make it work at that aspect ratio of course.)
And I didn't plan it this way, but I'm thinking that what I could do to fill that gap, and to give a reason for the splash screen being up on the screen, would be to make this the loading screen for my games. So I would put the word "Loading..." down in the lower right corner, and a red progress bar beneath it, and that would fill in the gap there.
That would look pretty good, would get people to look at the logo instead of being annoyed at having to skip past it, and would save the time and bother of having to make unique loading graphics for every game.
As for cutting the rocket into the R, I don't want to do that because it would make the text harder to read, and I want the text to be able to stand alone as a logo without the graphic, if need be. Besides, I think it looks nice as it is.
