Logo: The logo changes every game, but it always involves the two head creatures of the logo:

Psychonauts: Yellow clouds are seen against a red and yellow striped background. Something drops down. A closeup reveals that it is the creature, resembling two conjoined yellow babies in an old timey swimsuit. We cut down where in a border "DOUBLE FINE" is in a banner. The creature falls into place.
Epic Saga: Extreme Fighter: The last bit of the previous logo (the conjoined baby falling into place) is rendered in 8-bit.
My Game About Me: Olympic Challenge: The conjoined baby falling down is rendered in a plain graphic novel style like the game itself. The baby snorts.
Tasha's Game: The logo is in an even more cartoony pastel style, and appears without the baby. It appears with a pop.
Host Master and the Conquest of Humor: The finished logo is in a 16-bit pixelated style and dissolves.
Brutal Legend: The logo from before is still, but it is on a red circle on a black background and both heads are wearing bandanas, rocker wigs and Eddie Rigs' clothes with the game's logo on the shirt.
Costume Quest: The baby is in a forest at night holding trick-or-treat pumpkins, the left head is wearing a witch's hat and skeleton costume and the right head is dressed as Frankenstein's monster. Also, the border is orange and black.
Stacking: The background is a fancy wallpaper encased in a filmstrip. The left head has a monocle and the right has a hat.
Broken Age: On a painted version of the last background, with a mountain added, the creature rises up wearing aviator clothing. The banner rises up soon after.

FX/SFX: Depends on the variant. Usually 2D animation.

Music/Sounds:

Psychonauts: A whimsical tune that calms down when they land.
Epic Saga: Extreme Fighter: An 8-bit falling and crash noise.
My Game About Me: Olympic Challenge: A cartoon fall and boing sound, one wink from the baby and the snort.
Tasha's Game: The pop and the baby wailing.
Brutal Legend: One of the games characters screaming "DOUBLE FINE!" (which changes every time the game is booted up)
Broken Age: An ice-cream truck like tune ending with trumpets.
Other games: None.

Availability: Seen on all of their games, as well as the Costume Quest series on Amazon Prime.

Editor's Note: None.
