Since Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't have any simple shapes or icons in its logo or graphics, I used my Observer icon (#5443) and recolored it to Cyberpunk colors.

What about mirroring the symbol horizontally or removing the "biological" eye to set this apart from the observer icon a bit more? Does this make any sense?

BlueManCZ commented 1 year ago

I don't know, mirroring the symbol doesn't feel right, because you look at it the same way you read the text. From left to right - human face -> robotic face - humans becoming machines, the cyberpunk concept (Observer is a cyberpunk game as well). And removing the biological eye also feels and looks wrong. It's very important for the balance of the whole icon.

Moving the cyborg eye to the centre more akin to the screenshot would be quite the hassle I take it?

BlueManCZ commented 1 year ago

Not sure if it would be recognizable anymore - that it is actually a human being. It's probably not worth the time. I wouldn't worry about the similarity with the Observer icon. It's a game with a current daily peak of 10 players.
