To ensure a square font, any accented glyphs from Mandrill (my monospaced, lanky, much-of-unicode font) that went above a capital A's peak were cut, but many lower-case accented glyphs stayed in.  Since this is meant for a text-heavy game genre where legibility at small size is important, all of Latin Extended Additional was cut -- it was just too hard to read at small sizes, and I doubt it would be very useful in a roguelike or similar text-based game that needs square glyphs.  This looks pretty good with anti-aliasing, but the preview may be funny because it uses the old 2x2 filter as well as the new horizontal stretch filter.  It's called Zodiac Square because of the 12x12 pixels, 12 signs of the Zodiac.With%2012x12%20pixels%20at%20size%206%2F8%20font%2C%20the%20new%20brick%20filter%20options%20are%20on%20display%20in%20Zodiac%20Square.%20%20To%20ensure%20a%20square%20font%2C%20any%20accented%20glyphs%20from%20Mandrill%20%28my%20monospaced%2C%20lanky%2C%20much-of-unicode%20font%29%20that%20went%20above%20a%20capital%20A%27s%20peak%20were%20cut%2C%20but%20many%20lower-case%20accented%20glyphs%20stayed%20in.%20%20Since%20this%20is%20meant%20for%20a%20text-heavy%20game%20genre%20where%20legibility%20at%20small%20size%20is%20important%2C%20all%20of%20Latin%20Extended%20Additional%20was%20cut%20--%20it%20was%20just%20too%20hard%20to%20read%20at%20small%20sizes%2C%20and%20I%20doubt%20it%20would%20be%20very%20useful%20in%20a%20roguelike%20or%20similar%20text-based%20game%20that%20needs%20square%20glyphs.%20%20This%20looks%20pretty%20good%20with%20anti-aliasing%2C%20but%20the%20preview%20may%20be%20funny%20because%20it%20uses%20the%20old%202x2%20filter%20as%20well%20as%20the%20new%20horizontal%20stretch%20filter.%20%20It%27s%20called%20Zodiac%20Square%20because%20of%20the%2012x12%20pixels%2C%2012%20signs%20of%20the%20Zodiac.

You know, the one that was left when a certain gratuitously-violent time-themed action TV show was canceled.  This font fills not only your heart, but also several blocks of Extended Latin, for writing out the languages that aren't American.  Need to correctly write the name of the Polish official who is doing dirty deeds in your fan fiction, and the long name of the Icelandic villain he's collaborating with? Has the hero fled from captivity and wound up in Vietnam, and you need to write authentic Vietnamese?  Are you making a text-based game that needs square characters and don't care if they look silly?  The International Phonetic Alphabet block is not supported, but you don't need International anything. America.
