Orion Interactive

Background
Orion Interactive was a short-lived video game division of Orion Pictures, founded and ran by Jed Weintrob. The company produced only two games before being folded into MGM Interactive.

(October 18, 1996-September 12, 1997)
8Icms0dDvJQ Nickname: "Enhanced Starry Sky"

Logo: Same as the 2nd Orion Home Video logo (Orion Pictures combo version), only "INTERACTIVE" replaces "HOME VIDEO". The logo is played backwards from the point where "ORION" disappeared in the top star of the constellation to the point where "ORION" was formed.

Variant: On Sonic's Schoolhouse, the word "INTERACTIVE" is in its silver-gradient color. It's also shortened, and played forwards.

FX/SFX: Same as the 2nd Orion Home Video logo.

Music/Sounds:
 * On Sonic's Schoolhouse, the opening theme of the video game is played.
 * On Blue Heat: The Case of the Cover Girl Murders, is a shortened variant of the theme from the 2nd Orion Home Video logo (Orion Pictures combo version).

Availability: Rare. It was only seen on Sonic's Schoolhouse and Blue Heat: The Case of the Cover Girl Murders, both for PC.

Editor's Note: If you watch closely, you can see that "INTERACTIVE" is on a black rectangle, covering up "HOME VIDEO", which cheapens an otherwise respectable version of a beloved logo.
