Background

Source is a 3D game engine developed by Valve as the successor to their original GoldSrc engine, introduced in June 2004. Source does not have a concise version numbering scheme; instead, it is designed in constant incremental updates. It is named after Half-Life: Source, the first game by the corporation to utilize the engine.

(2004-)

Logo: After the Valve logo, we see the words "powered by" on top of "source" in white, with an orange symbol resembling a part of the Half-Life logo surrounding the "e" and copyright notice below.

Variants:

  • On console versions of Half-Life 2, the logo does not have a copyright notice.
  • Starting with Half-Life 2: Episode One, a "2" is placed inside the symbol to represent the utilization of Source 2.

FX/SFX: None.
