Background: A game developer based in the north west of England, Bizarre Creations was founded in 1988 by Martyn Chudley as Raising Hell Software. Developing titles initially for the 8-bit and 16-bit computer market, including The Killing Game Show for the Amiga, Atari ST and Sega Megadrive as Fatal Rewind, the company's first PlayStation title was Formula 1.

1st Logo
(1996-2002)


Nickname: "The Flying Jack-O-Lantern"

Logo: We see a Jack-O-Lantern with brown boots with bat-like wings flying on the purple planet with the green "Bizarre" text with a yellow outline in a strange font with spikes on left and right sides with "Creations" in a strange font with dots on the left and right.

Variants:

• On the USA version of Formula 1, The planet has red eyes which can be also be seen on Rodney Matthew's website. It's on the background of the opening movie.
• On Formula 1 Championship Edition AKA Formula 1 97 in the UK, the logo appears zooming back on the opening movie background. Plus, the word "Production" appears spaced below the logo.
• On Fur Fighters and Fur Fighters Viggo's Revenge, the background is white with shadow behind the logo.
• On Metropolis Street Racer and Project Gotham Racing, the words, "A Bizarre Creations Game" is under the logo.

FX/SFX: None. Depending on a game.

Music/Sounds: Silent or the opening theme of the game.

Availability: First seen on Formula 1 for PSX. Also appears on other Bizarre games through the era.

Scare Factor: None, unless if you're scared of Jack-O-Lanterns.

2nd Logo
(2002-2003)

Nickname: "CGI Flying Jack-O-Lantern", "The Tilting Text"

Logo: On the purple starfield background, we see the CGI pink planet with the "Bizarre Creations" text in their same respective fonts from the 1st logo. Then the flying Jack-O-Lantern appears from the right, flapping his wings, then flies to the left, and flaps his wings faster then steps on the "Bizarre" text then it tilts causing the Jack-O-Lantern to be wobbly for a second. Then he stands still and looks at the "Bizarre" text and scratches his head. Then he looks at us and forgets about it. Then he jumps off the "Bizarre" text while it tilts again while he swoops down. A few seconds later, he swoops through the screen transitioning to a black screen.

Variants:

• On Project Gotham Racing 2, the background is black. Plus, the 3rd logo (see below) appears at the end when he swoops through.
• On the GBA version of Treasure Planet there is a still version of the logo where it shows the Jack-O-Lantern forgetting about the text.

FX/SFX: The Jack-O-Lantern flying, the text tilting, the scratching of his head.

Music/Sounds: No music, but a very low wind sound with flapping and tilting sounds.

Availability: Appears on Treasure Planet for PS2. The black background variant appears on Project Gotham Racing 2 for Xbox. The still variant appears on Treasure Planet for GBA.

Scare Factor: Minimal to low, unless if you're scared of Jack-O-Lanterns. A transition from the logo to the next logo on PGR2 can catch you off guard.
