4 downloads4%20downloads462 glyphs62%20glyphs62This is a utility font that I'm making to facilitate legible button inputs for various games.
I got the idea when I was looking at a moves list for a fighting game.
To make a button, type a capital letter, then a lowercase letter.
The number keys make arrows (for now), so if you type "236FP", you successfully illustrate the basic "projectile" command of many fighting games.
I'm thinking of remapping the arrows somewhere, but for my current needs, the numbers are just fine.
I later will want to have numbers and blank halves so I can illustrate button inputs for other systems, like Wii and PS* (eg: "Button 1" and "R2").
You can even make TG16 buttons right now, (eg: "II", "IV", "VI"),
but I'll need to add more characters for the rest (blank half for "I" and "V", and a "III" button).

Hope you guys get a kick out of this, and sorry to anyone who's already had this idea.

This is the result.
Possibly still in need of extra work.
Was considering turning each character into composites, thus making the palette composed of the font itself, but that seemed a little pointless since it would still look the same in the end.Inspired%20by%20%22Micro%22%2C%20created%20by%20Syniphas%2C%20which%20is%20mostly%20composed%20of%20characters%20measuring%201x2%20tiles%20%28using%20composites%29%2C%20I%20decided%20to%20go%20for%202x2%20tiles%20%28no%20composites%29.%0D%0AThis%20is%20the%20result.%0D%0APossibly%20still%20in%20need%20of%20extra%20work.%0D%0AWas%20considering%20turning%20each%20character%20into%20composites%2C%20thus%20making%20the%20palette%20composed%20of%20the%20font%20itself%2C%20but%20that%20seemed%20a%20little%20pointless%20since%20it%20would%20still%20look%20the%20same%20in%20the%20end.

4 downloads4%20downloads4113 glyphs113%20glyphs113"Graphs and Grids" is designed for practical use, and thus has a few odds and ends.

1. CAPS are VERTICAL, and LOWERCASE is HORIZONTAL.
2. Numbers are HORIZONTAL, but pressing SHIFT turns them VERTICAL.
3. Because of rule 2, certain characters have been moved to ALT-CODES.
ALT + 91x (where "x" is a number 0-9) will produce that number VERTICALLY.
ALT + 42x (where "x" is a number 0-9) will produce the symbol above that number (on your keyboard) VERTICALLY.
4. To write vertically, simply enter a letter and press ENTER to go down.
5. This is a work-in-progress, and any Comments and Criticism (C&C) are welcome.

Everything is complete for HORIZONTAL,  and everything is done for VERTICAL except the symbols/punctuation that surround the ENTER key.
I'll figure a way to do those later.%22Graphs%20and%20Grids%22%20is%20designed%20for%20practical%20use%2C%20and%20thus%20has%20a%20few%20odds%20and%20ends.%0D%0A%0D%0A1.%20CAPS%20are%20VERTICAL%2C%20and%20LOWERCASE%20is%20HORIZONTAL.%0D%0A2.%20Numbers%20are%20HORIZONTAL%2C%20but%20pressing%20SHIFT%20turns%20them%20VERTICAL.%0D%0A3.%20Because%20of%20rule%202%2C%20certain%20characters%20have%20been%20moved%20to%20ALT-CODES.%0D%0AALT%20%2B%2091x%20%28where%20%22x%22%20is%20a%20number%200-9%29%20will%20produce%20that%20number%20VERTICALLY.%0D%0AALT%20%2B%2042x%20%28where%20%22x%22%20is%20a%20number%200-9%29%20will%20produce%20the%20symbol%20above%20that%20number%20%28on%20your%20keyboard%29%20VERTICALLY.%0D%0A4.%20To%20write%20vertically%2C%20simply%20enter%20a%20letter%20and%20press%20ENTER%20to%20go%20down.%0D%0A5.%20This%20is%20a%20work-in-progress%2C%20and%20any%20Comments%20and%20Criticism%20%28C%26C%29%20are%20welcome.%0D%0A%0D%0AEverything%20is%20complete%20for%20HORIZONTAL%2C%20%20and%20everything%20is%20done%20for%20VERTICAL%20except%20the%20symbols%2Fpunctuation%20that%20surround%20the%20ENTER%20key.%0D%0AI%27ll%20figure%20a%20way%20to%20do%20those%20later.

8 downloads8%20downloads838 glyphs38%20glyphs38A favorite of 1 userA%20favorite%20of%201%20user1A font created to (poorly) emulate the font used on various aspects of the original Nintendo Entertainment System, such as the controller buttons.

I'm not sure how I feel about some of the letters (I, J, K, M, P, W, and Z) and the number 1.

I only used the lettering on the controller as reference, and haven't yet looked at the console itself, but I'm sure it uses the same lettering for "POWER" and "RESET", as well as other things perhaps (hopefully "NINTENDO ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM").

Lettering that looks different in this font than that on the NES console will be fixed once I can be bothered to look at one.
