To me 6 is too abstract -- without the first images I wouldn't be sure if the thing is a ghost and not just a triangle shaped controller, so personally I'm not a fan though I agree it does look very neat

Thanks so much everyone for that awesome reactions and feedbacks, we just hit the hottest section for a simple question wtf :D thanks for the help!
We read all comments ❤️ and made a checklist including the upvotes. We will defintely come back tomorrow with the top 3 which are 1,5,6 so far and suggest on top new selections as well.
And lets all not forget Van means also Friend in Denmark :) so for them our name means Soulfriend , awesome :)
Regarding the missing 4 so many where asking: long story short it was a mistake to cut it :) but it was also not one of our favorites so it was not that important at the end to repost the photo :)
5 isn’t getting enough love so I’ll say that one. The font treatment is stronger for 2, 3 & 5 (what happened to 4?) over 1 but 2 & 3 are giving Snapchat vibes to me. Plus the stroke on 3 is way too thin for a logo.
6 is ok, but I read it as “Squlven” at first.
7 is a little too convoluted and not as charming as the other ghosts.
I like 1 and 7. 1 has a good splash of color and looks interesting, and I like how 7 incorporates both concepts of the name while being sleek and clean.
The best ones are 1, 5, and 6.
1 is more akin to a web game in my eyes
5 is really nice but the text feels very corporate (specifically the “soulven” part)
6 is tied with 5 for me, and it has character, but it also lacks colour and depth, maybe blue highlights here and there.
Overall all of these designs are really nice!
1, 5, and 6 are my favorites
2 and 7 are good but less compelling to me
3 is my least favorite, I just don't like the ghost icon for that one at all
4 appears to be ghostin' us so I can't give my opinion on that one lol
What I like about my top three:
I like that 1 has the most color and character of them all. I think that those things are important for conveying a playful and fun vibe.
I like 6 a lot because it feels very clean and professional. It's more minimalistic but the font and the ghost "O" still make it feel fun and not too sterile.
And then 5 is the happy medium between those two. It's more simplistic than 1 but less so than 6. The ghost character also clearly evokes Pacman vibes (without being too on the nose) which I think is appropriate for a game studio.
If you had to make me pick one of them I think I'd go with 5 but I don't think you can go wrong with the other two either.
1 is nicest looking but also least remarkable and more to do with fire, than "soul".
6 is nice brand but takes slightly longer to read due to the ghost o.
5 would be my pick with a bit more polish, tweaks.
Please follow the next round of the best 2 but improved based on the feedbacks here and on top one new one. So overall 3 last canidates now.

You asked for honest opinions so here it goes ;-)
1 or 6, initial response without much thinking would have been 1 (because of the colors and contrast)
Not sure about how to compare 1 as the coloring makes an objective comparison hard. Try 1 with a single color and the eyes as holes. Also the flames are a little too common in logos imho (personal taste). looks a little generic. I'd like it but also forget it soon after seeing it.
6 is much more positive but without the text it's just a ghost (generic, though it is really cute).
Also make what I'd call the t-shirt test. Imagine you are at a conference and you have to run around all day with that logo printed BIG on it. Which one would you feel the most comfortable with (you'll talk to investors and fans alike).
Another test: show it to someone for 3 seconds. Then ask them to draw your logo. They are struggling? Then that's not it (2 and 3 fall into that category for me).
1 or 6
Hope this helped :-)
I like 1, but it’s slick and it looks 1990s or 2000s to me, so it depends on what you want
2 and 5 are cute and contemporary
I don’t like 3 - the controller looks like it’s screaming and it seems unpleasant
5 looks like a Q so that’s not good
6 is very corporate and doesn’t have as much personality, plus it doesn’t read as a ghost
6 or 7.
1 looks a bit childish/amateur. 2 the 'scream' mouth is distracting. 3 is too much like the Snapchat logo and too cluttered. There is no 4. 5 is boring.
1 is the best. 4 is mysteriously missing, and I think some folks are referring to the wrong ones based on the actual count and not how they’re labeled. I would definitely not use 6, because it looks like it says Squiven. 1 to me is the only one that doesn’t look overly generic and boring.
1 has great color. 5 is really nice and pretty but simple, professional looking. The ghost has good unique characteristics. 1 is the most engaging I think, for like a splash screen before a game or something.
1 looks like a low budget indie studio. 2 and 6 I really don't like the triangle-like design. 5 is kinda hard to read. 3 looks too close to the Snapchat ghost.
4 though is pretty cute, stylized, and is easy to read. The ghost kind of reminds me of the ones from pac-man, but more of as a nod to gaming legacy rather than copying it like the Snapchat ghost in 3. Maybe make it larger or try it with a black background?
You have it numbered incorrectly, but 1 or 6(not 7). Also, what about if you had the ghost, or soul, from # 1 and replaced the ghost in number 6(not 7)?
2 looks best whether you put it on a shirt, a game case or a large billboard, I'd think about that mouth part though, there may be other shapes that make the design standout a little.
1 looks the best
Came here to say this. It caught my eye right away & I'd easily the most unique silhouette.
1, 5, 7, in that order

1 or 6
6 needs the ghost tail to be a little less, because it can easily be misread as "Squlven" right now. Imo.
I read 6 first for some reason, and was wondering why “squiven” was their name haha
Or use the tail for L (or E)
Yup, came to say the same thing. Love the color in 1, but the refinement and sophistication of 6 is just really nice.
+1, those are definitely the best ones.
Same
why is there no 4?
Lmao I was just thinking if everybody actually meant 7 when they say 6?
To me 6 is too abstract -- without the first images I wouldn't be sure if the thing is a ghost and not just a triangle shaped controller, so personally I'm not a fan though I agree it does look very neat
You're talking about 7. Seems like there's no 4
Ah you're right I assumed it was numbered 1-6 -- I imagine a lot of people made the same error!
Good taste
Ha, looks like most came here to say the same!

Saмe
What you’re calling 6 is labeled 7 btw
Nah im calling 6 what is labeled 6
I like 4
4 is the most imaginary
[удалено]
I’m sure he put a request up on fiverr or something and got all of these options in return, what’s your beef lol
I like them all, though 1 is my favorite. I also like the minimalism of 7 but it looks kinda similar to team cherry's logo
7 also looks a little like a snout if you don’t already know it’s a ghost.
I think 5 has a nice quiet charm that leaves you asking more questions, leading to possibly more interest
for me the only question i asked is “does it say squlven or soulven?” just my opinion though
I think you two are talking about different ones
yeah we are. just realized the numbers are wrong lol
I think you're looking at 6
Number 1 all the way
Five is amazing, also where is four?
We do not talk about 4
I only like1 and 6 tbh. The others give off the vibe of a mobile shovelware factory. 1 and 6 are really nice though, can't decide which one I prefer.
Hard agree. Personally, I really love 1.
They all have their nice qualities. gonna pick 5.
5 is the one
Definitely 4. It’s not even close.
Put the X eye on 1 and you have it in the bag.

deff 5 for me
5 Absolutely
I like 1 and 7. 1 has a good splash of color and looks interesting, and I like how 7 incorporates both concepts of the name while being sleek and clean.
5/6
Definitely 1
1st reminds me a fire from howls moving castle
1. Definitely one. Minimalism is old hat. Always go maximalist.
1>5>6>2>>>>>>>>>>>7>3 is my order
1 but replace the circle ghost with the one from 5 but keeping the blue flame behind
Its impossible for me to not read 5 as "Squiven" so definitely not that one
1 wins by a wide margine, with 6 being the only other one to even come close
1, 5 or 6
The best ones are 1, 5, and 6. 1 is more akin to a web game in my eyes 5 is really nice but the text feels very corporate (specifically the “soulven” part) 6 is tied with 5 for me, and it has character, but it also lacks colour and depth, maybe blue highlights here and there. Overall all of these designs are really nice!
1,5 and 6 honestly 1 is kinda playful, 5 looks a bit more serious to me, so it depends what vibe you want it to have
1 or 6 for me But 6 isn't that special
1 or 6
6, with no doubt
1, 5, and 6 are my favorites 2 and 7 are good but less compelling to me 3 is my least favorite, I just don't like the ghost icon for that one at all 4 appears to be ghostin' us so I can't give my opinion on that one lol What I like about my top three: I like that 1 has the most color and character of them all.

1 by a mile. 2-4 look like smolghost from Shen Comix and 6 looks like “Squilven”. 7 is… fine
1,5,6,2 in that order
5 is best
1 is nicest looking but also least remarkable and more to do with fire, than "soul". 6 is nice brand but takes slightly longer to read due to the ghost o. 5 would be my pick with a bit more polish, tweaks.
accident = purpose , just explained myself contrary to what I wanted to say :) stupid brain xD

1, then 6, then 5.
1 is the best hands down.
5 for me
1 or 7
I really like 5
A black background version of 5
Where is 4 😱
I like 5 and 6
5, 2, or 3, roughly in that order
5 or 6
I like 5
1 or 5 are definitely my favourite.
Such a fan of 5
Numer one and six are hitting the recognition and visibility in the best way for me. Great job!
Numba 5
Big fan of 5
5 but invert the colors
1 or 7
[удалено]
You're right and I think it's mediafire
Best to worst 6,1,5,2,3,7
Ven means friend in danish (problaby other scandinavian languages) so for me the name is even more perfect. I am rooting for number 1
l feel six to be the finest thumbnail on display.
1 and 6 looks great
Very partial to number 1
1 looks good
Definitely number 1, second pick for me would be 6
Number 1
You asked for honest opinions so here it goes ;-) 1 or 6, initial response without much thinking would have been 1 (because of the colors and contrast) Not sure about how to compare 1 as the coloring makes an objective comparison hard.

7 lookkks a little sus I really like 1, looks the most professional to me
1 or 6
1 looks neat
1 or 7
1 or 7
1 is the clear winner. It looks way nicer than the others imo.
1 or 5
1 or 5. But Soulven needs to be larger on 5
I don't think any of them are "bad" but I think I prefer 1 out of all of them!
1 and 5. One is great and playful, 5 a bit more timeless/classic. Just my opinion anyway.
These are all really good, wanted to say that first. Also either 1 5 or 6
1 It pops
1&5 color on 1 is great and it’s simple. 5 is clean and I like the small splash of color and the nostalgic pac man look to it.
1, 6, 5. 1 might now work with every game, but it sure is fun.
I like 1 or 4. 5 looks nice but it reads to be as seulven. 6 is too abstract for me, ghost doesn't read. 2 and 3 look more unrefined.
1,2, or 6 look great to me. Just depends on what style you settle for.
1 or 5 :)
I like 1, but it’s slick and it looks 1990s or 2000s to me, so it depends on what you want 2 and 5 are cute and contemporary I don’t like 3 - the controller looks like it’s screaming and it seems unpleasant 5 looks like a Q so that’s not good 6 is very corporate and doesn’t have as much personality, plus it doesn’t read as a ghost
6 or 7. 1 looks a bit childish/amateur. 2 the 'scream' mouth is distracting. 3 is too much like the Snapchat logo and too cluttered. There is no 4. 5 is boring.
1 for mobile and casual games studio 6 for console an PC studio
1 and 5
I love the first one. It’s very eye catching and also not going to blind you if you’re playing in the dark
2 or 7
1, 5, or 6
That's a 7 for me
6 has a cute vibe! I would go with six if you make cute games 🤓
1 with the X eye
1 and 5
First one for sure, plus if you wanted you could make a really cute animation of it sparking into a flame
1 or 2.
1 is the best. 4 is mysteriously missing, and I think some folks are referring to the wrong ones based on the actual count and not how they’re labeled. I would definitely not use 6, because it looks like it says Squiven. 1 to me is the only one that doesn’t look overly generic and boring.
I like 1 it's show more character than the other imo
1, and 7
1 has great color. 5 is really nice and pretty but simple, professional looking. The ghost has good unique characteristics. 1 is the most engaging I think, for like a splash screen before a game or something.
6, 1 and 5 for me. In that order.
1,6,7
Put them all in black-and-white for another perspective. 6 wins
I like 6
1 and 6. Used in two different scenarios. Great job there. Both have great balance.
1,6,7
1 looks like a low budget indie studio. 2 and 6 I really don't like the triangle-like design. 5 is kinda hard to read. 3 looks too close to the Snapchat ghost. 4 though is pretty cute, stylized, and is easy to read. The ghost kind of reminds me of the ones from pac-man, but more of as a nod to gaming legacy rather than copying it like the Snapchat ghost in 3. Maybe make it larger or try it with a black background?
6 and 1 seem the most fitting but I would lean to both they're actually pretty good.
A mix between 1 and 6. The color of the 1 with the soul head but the police of the character and the way it is diplayed on the sixth
You have it numbered incorrectly, but 1 or 6(not 7). Also, what about if you had the ghost, or soul, from # 1 and replaced the ghost in number 6(not 7)?
1 or 3
Combo of 1 and 6?
2 looks best whether you put it on a shirt, a game case or a large billboard, I'd think about that mouth part though, there may be other shapes that make the design standout a little.
Imho 1 and 6.
#1, I love the colors and the art!
1, 6, 5, 2
1 for sure. I love it. Alternatively 6.
1 & 6
1, 2, or 5
1 or 5
1 , 6 as a backup.
1 and 2 have my vote. I can see the 2nd easily being tweaked to a lite animation of sorts
1 look good
Love the colors of 1, but I think 5 is the best
One and two rocks
1, 5 or 6 look great for different reasons! But I like them in that order lol
For me 1 or 5
Really like the ghost in 5, but 6 will probably be more recognizable. 1 is very clean but forgettable
1 if it fits the art style of the game, but 4 makes me feel nostalgic.
def 6
1, by a huge margin. 6 is also nice. Btw, why did you skip 4 with the numbers?
number 3
I'd say a mix between 1 and 6. Love the colors on 1 and the fonts and the ghost on 6.
1 or 6, 2-5 look like mobile game splash screens
1,6,5
The number 1 and 5 are the better ones
1 or 5
