Thanks for the submissions everyone, here are a couple of things to consider:
Our company is unique, we are a red crow in a sky full of black crows. Different from the pack. Industry leaders. Showing multiple crows is going to be an important part of this logo.
We need to make sure we're focusing on a "mobile games" feel (avoid controllers). This includes fun, play and entertainment - it can be asymmetrical, have crazy character designs or be a graphic only. Keep kid-like wonder in mind and focus on simplicity. Handwritten fonts are great, just keep it clear. Not realistic, not hard edge - feeling more social and friendly.
Don't feel as though red and black are your only color options, please explore. Or try variations of different values of red in a single image. Note that the winning design will look good in black and white and in color.
Silhouette is important, this should read at a glance. Be bold! Feel free to contain in a shape (square or circle) or maybe try an approach with some perspective (cube). It certainly doesn't require black outlines, or outlines at all as long as the shape is defined.
Negative space is cool, but don't create a design that is entirely based on the background being a certain color. This will most commonly appear on white, unless you add a container into your logo. Don't hesitate to use environment props to help with balance; try a post or wire, maybe a speech bubble or some wind lines.
