Visuals: On a white background, the text "Google Play" in gray and in a modified version of the Product Sans font fades in at the bottom of the screen. A green triangle fades in at the center of the screen as it slightly zooms towards us, as a mint gaming controller pops in at the left of the triangle. Four dots resembling buttons pop up at the right of the controller. before the logo shrinks as a green streak fades in below and rotating to indicate that the program is loading.
Variant: An early variant exists where the controller is positioned differently in the triangle, and is more green. The controller is more detailed, and its buttons are white, and also contains a D-pad at the left of it. The logo and the Google Play wordmark are already present, as the controller pops out of the triangle for a while before the streak fades in below.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: None.
Availability: Seen when you open the Google Play Games app on a tablet or a phone. However, this seems to only happen when the app is first opened after your device has started up.
