How to Set up Game Key Art and Logos for Success
summary
Recommends building a very large, layered PSD as the source master (save lighter PSD cutdown versions), use Adobe Photoshop smart objects to avoid quality loss, and extend backgrounds with elements drawn in full so crops don’t leave holes. Export common cutdowns (16:9, 3:4, 1:1) as PNG/JPEG and keep PSDs. For logos, use 8K PSDs for 3D looks or AI vectors and include a one‑color vector plus horizontal/vertical variants. Follow platform templates and safe zones for Steam capsules.
