  • This font was inspired by Johannes Gutenberg’s Black Letter, and the iconic 8 bit font. I wanted to make a font that would be found in an old arcade or some odd Nintendo Gameboy role playing game.

    The challenge of making this font was trying to make it simple like the original 8 bit font but still have it be ornate like the Black Letter. I believe that I met the challenge and I was also able to make a lower case set which adds more readability to the big blocky upper case. While it became more readable it is still more of a display font.

Sorry the examples didn't turn out so well I don't know why they are like this.

Hmm... I think the uppercase H and I look different in the Textur blackletter.

Wow, awesome work Abigail! I can tell you put a lot of work into this!

This looks great, it has very strong blackletter attributes; you managed to give it a more 'airy' feel making it easier to read when one has to read fast or shouldn't be side tracked by highly ornate glyphs (like in a game).

Typical of neo-pixel art creations: divided blocks! (just because we can, now^^)

A beautiful design (with these loose limitations in mind). Cool samples b.t.w.
