BORN FROM INFORMATION FILES
containing release notes from
cracked games comes the somewhat
infamous NFO art.
See artscene.textfiles.com/asciiart/NFOS/
Here's a little two character
version of a logo:
░░▄▄██▀▀▀▀██▓▄▄▄██▀▀▀▀██▓▄

██▓▓ ██▓▓ ██▓▓ ██▓▓
▀▀▀▀▀▀██▓▓ ▀▀▀▀▀▀██▓▓
Typically, it's a one-color logo
drawn with extended ASCII block
characters █ ▄ ▀ and shading ▓ ▒
░.
Sometimes it's inverted - the
whole document filled with █'s
and then the graphics removed as
white space in the document.

from the 16colo.rs archives.

One of the most iconic NFOs designed, the Fairlight logo by JED,
even made it onto t-shirts ...
