Cenega Publishing

Background

Cenega Publishing was founded in April 2002 by Cenega N.V. as a distribution brand for the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland. The company was acquired by 1C Company in May 2005 and renamed "1C Publishing Europe" in 2007.

1st Logo (2002-2003)

Logo: We see a starfield with a rotating spiral galaxy. Several light sparkles fly from the galaxy in turn and blast below to create six letters, reading "CENEGA". Then, a rolling S-shaped figure appears from the center and takes its place, clearing the galaxy away.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Ethereal sounds, bumping of the sparkles and a bitcrushed rumble. Sound designed by Johan von Red from Redmer Werkstatt.

Availability: Seen on Another War, The Watchmaker and other games published in Europe.

2nd Logo (2003-2007)

Logo: We start on a starfield and begin to move into the light-flooded center of a spiral galaxy. Some asteroids fly past us, and then the light fades to show a different space environment with a giant green planet to the right and the S-shaped galactic logo already in place, with the name below. Then the name changes to the slogan "Where Worlds Collide".

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A whoosh-driven soundtrack with a double echoed announcer.

Availability: Seen on Shade: Wrath of Angels, Bloodline and other games.
