First of all, if you&#8217;re willing to design something, keep in mind what is your goal. We wanted to design a logo for our game about bumper cars, a fast crash derby placed all over the universe. It should represent a future look, clear contures and smashing colors. So Frece thought about everything, which represents racing and crashing cars and out it together: Chrome (ok, we&#8217;re a bit older and were socialized in the 1990, when chrome was a sign of future (see <a href=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/EZ3DF_0XQAIDBu_?format=jpg&amp;name=medium\">Spongebob Chromepants in the year 3000 episode<\/a>).
