This is adapted from Enduro Racer specifically, as opposed to Fantasy Zone, Space Harrier or so on - the only difference is some specialty glyphs like the 'Km/h'.A%20Recreation%20of%20the%20font%20used%20by%20Sega%27s%20System-16%20Arcade%20Hardware.%0D%0A%0D%0AThis%20is%20adapted%20from%20Enduro%20Racer%20specifically%2C%20as%20opposed%20to%20Fantasy%20Zone%2C%20Space%20Harrier%20or%20so%20on%20-%20the%20only%20difference%20is%20some%20specialty%20glyphs%20like%20the%20%27Km%2Fh%27.

The outcome of my first Graphic Design project at the University of the West of England. This typeface is based on the designated theme of 'Evil'. As the project developed I began to move away from the rather stereotypical 'dark' imagery commonly associated with evil and approached the topic in a different, light-hearted manner. This led me onto the theme of villainy in popular culture, from film to video games. The classic ghosts of the arcade game Pac-Man are designed with such consideration - they are required to communicate both character and threat to the player, whilst still falling within the limitations of the 1980s hardware. As a result, these creatures personify the concept of 'evil stripped down to its essential forms.'UPDATE%3A%20I%20have%20altered%20the%20letters%20%27U%27%2C%20%27H%27%20and%20%27X%27%20in%20order%20to%20increase%20legibility.%20-%2014%2F11%2F11%0D%0A%0D%0AThe%20outcome%20of%20my%20first%20Graphic%20Design%20project%20at%20the%20University%20of%20the%20West%20of%20England.%20This%20typeface%20is%20based%20on%20the%20designated%20theme%20of%20%27Evil%27.%20As%20the%20project%20developed%20I%20began%20to%20move%20away%20from%20the%20rather%20stereotypical%20%27dark%27%20imagery%20commonly%20associated%20with%20evil%20and%20approached%20the%20topic%20in%20a%20different%2C%20light-hearted%20manner.%20This%20led%20me%20onto%20the%20theme%20of%20villainy%20in%20popular%20culture%2C%20from%20film%20to%20video%20games.%20The%20classic%20ghosts%20of%20the%20arcade%20game%20Pac-Man%20are%20designed%20with%20such%20consideration%20-%20they%20are%20required%20to%20communicate%20both%20character%20and%20threat%20to%20the%20player%2C%20whilst%20still%20falling%20within%20the%20limitations%20of%20the%201980s%20hardware.%20As%20a%20result%2C%20these%20creatures%20personify%20the%20concept%20of%20%27evil%20stripped%20down%20to%20its%20essential%20forms.%27

A little Jobs/Wozniak drama from the development story of the game Breakout:

"Breakout, a discrete logic (non-microprocessor) game, was conceptualized by Nolan Bushnell and Steve Bristow, after the latter had "rejoined" Atari after the merge of Atari subsidiary Kee Games.

"Al Alcorn was assigned as the project manager, and began development with Cyan Engineering in 1975. The same year, Alcorn assigned Steve Jobs to design a prototype. Jobs was offered USD$750, with an extra $100 each time a chip was eliminated from the prospected design. Jobs promised to complete a prototype within four days. Jobs noticed his friend Steve Wozniak—employee of Hewlett-Packard—was capable of producing designs with a small number of chips, and invited him to work on the hardware design with the prospect of splitting the $750 wage.

"The original deadline was met after Wozniak didn't sleep for four days straight. In the end 50 chips were removed from Jobs' original design. This equated to a $5000 USD bonus, which Jobs kept secret from Wozniak, instead only paying him $375."
