Logos[]

1st logo (1996)[]

We see a gray 3D letter "V", which is common for words "VICARIOUS" and "VISIONS", which are situated to the right (in two lines). The red light spot is seen behind. Above the logo, there is the letter "a", and below its the word "production" in white.

2nd logo (1997)[]

The golden rectangle with 3D outlines contains the letter "V" sign from previous logo, with words "VICARIOUS" above, and "VISIONS INC." below it.

3rd logo (1999)[]

There is a double "V" with upper solid triangle (with a sky picture) folded into white "V". Below, there are the words "vicarious" in fat font and "VISIONS INC." under it.

4th logo (2000-2001)[]

A red "V" letter flies into its place, the blue arcs around it fade in. Then the text, "VICARIOUS VISIONS" is drawing by light streak below (from left to right), and the "V" becomes 3D.

  • On Terminus, the logo is white on a gradient blue background.
  • For the Game Boy console, the logo is still.

5th logo (2001-2011)[]

The letter "V" with arc is similar to the previous logo, it is all red and the words are right to the picture . "inc." is in small font, moved a bit up.

6th logo (2007-2010)[]

We see a rockstar inside a tattoo shop. He sports a red headband, an earring, spiked bracelets, and a heart tattoo on his left shoulder as well as an infinity tattoo on his left pectoral. He's sitting on a chair, and is getting a tattoo made on his back. He has three contacts with the machine, and the pain keeps getting increasingly excruciating, making the rockstar suffer more and show disturbing views (culminating with a view of the man screaming bloody murder in extreme agony as his skin turns pale green, his headband, lips and eyelids turn purple, his tongue becomes snake-like and flaps around, his eyes turn red and bounce in and out from the sockets like bouncy balls, his ears become pointed and his hair flies everywhere). Then we see the tattoo artist wiping off the finished tattoo on the rockstar's back, which features rock imagery including a fire-breathing demon with two guitars on the bottom, black smoke around the flames and a hellish landscape behind it, a hand flashing the "Devil's Horns" sign above the demon's head while surrounded in grayish clouds and a trail of hardened magma, a vine with thorns, the word "Cliché" and a spider-web tattooed on his left arm, and finally a stylized demon skull, another heart pierced by an arrow, some flames and a snake tattooed on his right arm. In the middle of the back tattoo is the Vicarious Visions logo, without the "inc." text. The tattoo artist later adds on the "inc." text, causing the rockstar to scream in pain.

7th logo (2012-2016)[]

We see a scrawny knight with a big nose, a blonde mustache and holding a mace standing on a cliff outside a sinister-looking castle. An off-screen woman screams, causing the knight to put his hand to his ear. He then turns around, jumps off the cliff and enters the castle, where he finds the source of the scream: a red-headed princess in a green dress and a matching pointy hat hanging from a rope above a cauldron, guarded by a large cyclops-like monster holding a dagger and wearing skull-shaped shoulder pads. The knight jumps on the monster's head, knocking him out cold, and rescues the princess from the rope. The Vicarious Visions logo in white with a red outline and a slightly different font, lowers down to the screen by four ropes.

8th logo (2017)[]

The current Vicarious Visions logo is seen against a machinery background. Dr. Neo Cortex, continuing his narration over the logos, says "Developed by Vicarious Visions!". The dial on the background "turns on" and the logo glows as machine starting up noises are heard. We zoom back to reveal the logo has been on something resembling a giant metallic wood chipper attached to a conveyor belt. In the background are some boxes which resemble the ones in the original Crash Bandicoot PS1 games. Crash Bandicoot as he looked in the PS1 games pops up and waves to us. Neo Cortex continues "It's Crash Bandicoot!". PS1 Crash approaches the machine with an armful of Wumpa fruits also in PS1, but trips over a box and throws them in the machine along with a few falling boxes. The objects come out looking like they do in N. Sane proper. PS1 Crash notices this, dives into the machine, and comes out on the belt in a posing pose looking like how he does in N Sane proper. He gives a click-click sign to the audience and ultimately rolls off the belt. After getting up he spin-attacks off, revealing the title screen.

9th logo (2020-2021)[]

In a grimy skate park, we quickly slide from the left to see a skateboard with the Vicarious Visions logo from the last logo, with "VICARIOUS" and "VISIONS" in a blue graffiti-like font forming a ring around the V's. On the right side of the board, we can see an orange illustration of a trash can, and on the left, we can see an illustration of an orange domestic cat vomiting. After a few seconds, we slide away from the board and fade out.
