Background

Anaconda was the adventure game division of dtp Entertainment AG, launched in 2005. In 2008, Anaconda was shut down and merged into dtp.

Logo (January 27, 2006-2008)

Visuals: On a black background, a white silhouette of a snake slithers along from bottom to top of the screen, just as five large white bands draw on-screen with a fish-eye lens effect applied. As soon as the shorter fifth band is drawn, the bands zoom out and rotate about to reveal that they were actually five capsule-shaped lines forming a abstract snake coiled on itself, while it glows a blue color. Stopping in the center, it loses its glow and moves to the left while heavily getting distorted by a ripple effect, and "ANACONDA" sliding out with said effect. They both stop rippling for a few seconds, before rippling again and disappearing in a blue flash of light.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A dramatic synth entry with hiss-like sounds.

Availability: Appears on Overclocked and Undercover. It's more common on German releases, such as Runaway 2 (including the demo version).

-'''Logo:''' On a black background, a white snake passes over. Then, 5 stripes cover the screen vertically. Then, it turns horizontal as it zooms out, and the picture ripples. "ANACONDA" slides in from the right next to the stripes, resembling snake rings. The logo then flashes and blurs out.
