Blue Tongue Entertainment

Background
Blue Tongue Entertainment was founded in 1995 in Melbourne, Australia. It was acquired by THQ in 2004 and worked until 2011, when THQ announced their internal restructuring and closed this studio, among others. The company didn't use a logo until 2000.

1st Logo (October 28, 2000-February 22, 2011; April 27, 2017)
Logo: Just the two-color word "tongue" in Arial. There are custom variants for each game.

Variants:
 * Barnyard: Otis performs tricks on a bicycle, then crashes onto the logo standing in the grass. Then he gets hit by the bicycle and passes out cold.
 * Starship Troopers: The logo appears in mid-air while an alien insect flies and lands on it, then gets off.
 * Jurassic Park: There is a moving dinosaur eye among the grass. Then we change focus to the leaf with carved logo.
 * De Blob and De Blob 2 (PS3 and X360 version): We see an inky cleaning the logo, surrounded by ladders, a water can and other instruments. Then Blob jumps around and smashes everything to the large spot covering the first part of the logo.
 * Other games seem to use the still logo.
 * There is also a normal variant with the logo shining.
 * The pre-production trailer for De Blob has the normal variant zooming out and vibrating.

FX/SFX: Depends on the variant. None for the still version.

Music/Sounds: Depends on the variant. The normal variant has a loud whoosh.

Availability: Seen on the games listed above and others, including The Polar Express, Nicktoons Unite and De Blob.

Editor's Note: Fans of De Blob and the Nicktoons games will recognize this logo.

2nd Logo (October 20, 2009; February 22, 2011)
Logo: The logo fades in, showing a -tongued lizard next to the name written in the same font as the 1st logo, but in and dark blue. The logo slowly zooms out.

Variant: On the Nintendo DS port of De Blob 2, the name is arranged like in the 1st logo on a black background.

FX/SFX: The zoom-out.

Music/Sounds: A whoosh on fading in.

Availability: Uncommon. It was used on the Wii version of Marvel Super Hero Squad and the Wii and NDS versions of De Blob 2.

Editor's Note: None.
