Love the interpolation of that little dot. It's great what a crucial difference such an idea makes.

yeah i really liked that idea as well. i just reedited the typeface a little. now there's a little space between the dots like it was originally supposed to be.

I like it a lot: simple concept, original and beautiful letterforms, smart visual corrections that skip the trap of a boring antialiasing effect.

It would be nice to see it fully developed with UC and numerals.

This font looks very similar to Chuck Chillout by Pizzadude:

Nice. Its interesting to see the commonality of our typographic inspirations. I've also built the entire lowercase after viewing a DVD of the Ali G show and witnessing Sacha Baron Cohen's comedic genius. I couldn't find the source either, but it looks like jimhv got it right.

Playful. There seems to be more space between letters in your samples.
