    Ok well I have just begun learning Unity recently and am now pretty sure this is what I want to do for a career so I will be registering a company soon to lay the foundations of my studio.

    So far I have come up with 2 concepts for the name:



    Which?

    Definitely Bearfruit Studios. Good luck with registering your company. Go for something with as limited liability as possible.

    I like the name Bearfruit and its logo, but why is the 'f' not capitalised?

    Then the BFS would stand out without the apostrophe.
    Are you doing the studio with your bf? It would be appropriate then


    Ps, I vote for bearfruit, tho the name is a pun it also makes me think of those novelty souvenir chocolate drops you get named after animal droppings

    Bearfruit. Its cute, adorable and memorable. I had to scroll back up to the top of the screen a few times to remember the name on the other logo.

    Of course, a lot depends on the nature of games your studio intends to produce. The logo and name are a key part of your brand. They should match with the type and tone of game you are making. Bearfruit looks like it makes cute casual games. Agape looks like it makes dating sims and match making software (maybe? its hard to tell).

    Of course, if you combine the name bearfruit with the art work of the second logo you would be making a completely different kind of game.

    Bearfruit studios is a lot stronger Agape game, the logo is a bit generic and a love heart might not attract many male gamers? (just my two cents)

    It depends on who you are targeting really, its not a matter of opinion it should be more science based.

    Is that set in stone? I wasn't planning on making "casual games" although I may make a couple after my main game is done which is going to be a Naval Combat MMO.

    It's not set in stone, it's just the impression people will get when they first see it.

    Not at all. Most people won't pay any attention to your company name and logo, unless your game is really good. Your company name and logo will then be associated with your game.
