awesome piece of work!
 |
Lovin' this. Some great solutions, well executed with high usability. 10/10
 |
Magnificent - as an entry to the comp and as a maze font in it's own right.
|
Wow, thanks, guys! I'm lost for words... ;)
 |
This is a LUPO of inlinecomp. :-)
I will try to make a 3D sample for this.
 |
It's a-MAZE-ing. ;) 11/10 + fav
 |
this is very cool
 |
Very good font. 10/10 +fav :)
|
@platypus11, Upixel, Joefred24: Thank you very much for your kind comments! :-)
@architaraz: Thanks, but I don't think this could measure up to lupo. :-) I can't wait to see your sample!
 |
Great and fantastic work! (the labyrinths are one of my faves). But some glyphs appears hard to be connect with the next one (btw: the F, P, T, Y, f, r...), you would try something about these, IMHO.
|
Thanks, elmoyenique! I've added some alternates for those letters.
 |
This is so awesome.
I think you could do an overlay, fs lost (and found) version with a line going through the way path in and out of a letter, or fill the path that leads out.
Or something.
|
Thank you so much, thalamic. I am definitely going to make that.
|
|
 |
the last sample iis very cool
 |
you really "found" something here. amazing and awesome. good luck.
|
Thank you very much, guys! Your comments are much appreciated. :)

 |
A-maze-ing.
|
Thank! You! Meek!
 |
This one is more like to play than reading! Great criativity
 |
This font is so cool!!
There are a few symbols that create dead ends, though, like the exclamation mark.
 |
Awesome work you are crazy :P
|
Thanks, Noronha, 12Me21, and savvatore699, as well as to everyone who has downloaded and faved my work!
@12Me21: I'll fix those symbols right away! :-)
 |
HOW DO YOU GET IT ON YOU COMPUTER MY DOWNLOAD DOSENT WANT TO WORK
 |
DOES IT NOT THAT'S VERY INTERESTING I'M SURE WE ALL WANT TO HELP WITH YOUR CRAP COMPUTER PROBLEMS
 |
@cohnisgone: Be nice :)
@crosek6: On most systems you should be able to open the .ttf-file and click the "install font" button. If not, you will have to manually put it into your system's "fonts" folder. in windows it's usually C:\Windows\Fonts
Or you could have just googled it...
|
@CMunk: Yes sorry I was a bit of a d*ck there; I just get a little annoyed when people type in all caps and got more than a little annoyed this time
 |
OMG, this is too amazing to believe.
It's already not a font, it's an art!
|
@cohnisgone: That's exactly how I am. Yesterday, some of my classmates kept annoying me by using Comic Sans in our presentation, double spaces, repeating exclamation marks... They just can't realize that most typographers (even if they're young, like me) really hate that.
|
@minidonut: lol - don't forget that even Comic Sans was once hailed as an exciting new design
 |
As well as Arial and Times New Roman...
 |
@minidonut: I feel bad for you :(
My science teacher always uses Comic Sans in her presentations. AAAAAARGH, IT MAKES MY EYES BUUUUURN!!!!!!!
 |
could i use your font for comercial uses in an app and you will earn a profit of an money made?
|
@cablecomputer: I don't think Arial was ever an exciting new design, considering that more than half of it is no different from the 50-year ubiquitous Helvetica.
|
@cohnisgone ( I can never spell your name right)
Why was Arial even made anyway? It's kinda pointless...
|
@winty5: So that Microsoft wouldn't have to pay Helvetica's license fee. And Bill Gates calls himself a philanthropist.
 |
@Cohnisgone - How do you think he saved/earned all of that money he can now give away?... ;^)
|
No one can beat "The Great Helvetica" lol.
(And you should continue this discussion on the forum, not here.)
|
Oh, the terrible ways people misuse typography... ;-)
@jc70262: Thanks a bunch! :)
@MD_: I've sent you a private message concerning your request.

Marks: 1000000000000000000/10

Write, print it and have maked a maze.
 |
Can you fix the F and f please? they don't connect to anything. :(
 |
Hey, if you can do Russian Cyrillic, maybe you can do the Greek alphabet, Hiragana and Katakana, too.
|
@LDEJRuff: Kana maze, sound cool! However I thinks there are 2 problems.
1. Hiragana strokes are smooth and full of curves, maybe it is not suitable to design to maze.
2. FontStruct does not supports Unicode, so the author must map each kana to ANSI chars. I think the mapping rule is already exist since I've use some Japanese kana font which is mapped to ANSI chars.
 |
@JC
2. FS does support Unicode. Turn Expert Mode on, then look and you'll see unicode letter set or something similar.
 |
@jc: it could work. I've seen plenty of anime/manga designs that are incredible and entirely angular, and which, to me look better than the standard characters.
|
PS: All of my fonts utilize Unicode.
|
Thanks, everyone! :)
@Jonathan224: I've fixed F and f for you. When I redo this font with OpenType, I'll include an automatic alternate.
@jc70262: I can do Greek's simple shapes, but I don't know how well I can make the more complex Hiragana and Katakana. Maybe I'll give it a try... :-)
 |
It seems that the Ж (Cyrillic zhe) is one pixel shorter than the rest of the capital letters.
|
Thanks for the tip, Umbreon. That's actually just a preview glitch. I updated it four months ago with the rest of the font. I even tried deleting it from the font, and the old version was still showing up. The downloaded version is fine. :-)
|
Is it possible to make diacritics accessible too, just like you did with cyrillic Й, й?
|
"When I redo this font with OpenType, I'll include an automatic alternate."...
Great news :) Will you abandon bezier curves too?
|
That's the plan. :) I've created a few glyphs already. It looks better without all the miniature angles inside the curves.
I've also changed the diacritics for you. Some of them seem a bit awkward, so I'll try to fix them soon.
 |
Hello, this is a superb font, nice work! I love how the letters relate to each other! But it lacks a ligature which is important for my language is French, it is the "œ" Otherwise it's perfect. :)
 |
AMOR A PRIMERA VISTA con esta fuente!!
|
@jayneraxion: Muchas gracias!
@30100flo: Thanks! I've added in the œ at your request. :)
|
Hi again, I had an idea for FS LOST is to materialize the "space" with a horizontal and straight path, like the picture (I did it with Paint). ;)
|
And thank you for adding the œ :D
 |
Great font! dIt deserved the inlinecomp award! Congrats
As the rest of the users, I only miss one quite important character to complete my language's (Spanish) character set.
Guess which one
 |
A-MAZE-ING! Not original, but it IS so! You've poured time, thought and serious effort into this work! My hat is off to you!
|
I meant that the A-MAZE-ING COMMENT I made is not original, NOT the typeface concept. This typeface is DEFINITELY original! Sorry for any confusion.
|
People worldwide are really flexing their creative muscles with Fontstruct! I'm stunned by some of the typefaces that are made with this wonderful tool!
|
@30100flo: You're very welcome! :) You now can get a blank path with _ or ~.
@1saac: Thanks for your compliments! I've added in Ñ and ñ for you and your Spanish-speaking compañeros.
@Constructype: Thanks for the not-so-original comments! ;) Fontstruct is definitely a great typeface-building tool, for anyone from beginner to professional!
|
@eth Thank you compañero :D

Awww, the pic didn't work
 |
AWESOME DUDE!!
 |
Я - начинающий. Как создать шрифт с латинскими и кириллическими символами одновременно?
I am beginner. How to create a font with Latin and Cyrillic characters at once?
 |
@HLEBNY: It's easy. In Fontstructor select the menu at the bottom left corner > then select Cyrillic. Good luck.
 |
Please add Polish letters, because I'm from Poland, and it's VERY important for me (Polish letters: ż,ó,ł,ć,ę,ś,ą,ź,ń). Thank you ;)
P.S. I added example below :)
|
@ArrowUP: Done! I'm not sure I'm happy with the current version of the acutes, but it matches the ones I already had (on Á, É, Í, etc.). Your first suggestion for ć looks nice; I may use that instead.
