Double Helix Games

Background

Double Helix Games was a development studio located in Irvine, California. It was established on October 9, 2007 when Foundation 9 Entertainment announced they would merge The Collective and Shiny Entertainment into a new outfit. The company received its name selected from a pool of submissions from the team members on March 27, 2008. In 2014, the company was purchased by Amazon.com, and it was absorbed into Amazon Game Studios.

On Silent Hill: Homecoming, the byline "A Foundation 9 Entertainment Studio" appears under the logo.

2nd Logo (2011-2014)

Logo: We see a batch of shining silver blocks flying to the screen and rotating in action to form the new DNA structure logo: two quarter-circles of the spiral connected with their lines. The name "DOUBLE HELIX" zooms under the DNA, and "GAMES" fades in the second line. The cloudy background then clears to black.

Variants:

On Green Lantern, the logo is tinted green and just zooms in.
On Battleship, the logo is metallic.
