@Chujin: This Hiragana/Katakana set is pretty impressive. Kanji support would require a gargantuan effort. Do you reckon the current dimensions would provide enough space/resolution for Kanji? Great work 10/10
Your font name [決鐘セロバ] does include Kanji glyphs. Why don't you say: Final Bell Ceroba? I did some research on Undertale Yellow. It's a fascinating game world with all the complexity you can imagine. Which route did you take? The Pacifist?
@Frodo7: Thanks for the feedback! This is my first time ever trying out Hiragana/Katakana glyphs (I don't speak Japanese either) in a font so glad to see it's not completely readable
I'm currently attempting basic Kanji characters but I doubt I'll have the willpower to finish the entire thing; as for the resolution I've already encountered issues with that but I'm taking inspiration from fonts like JF Dot MPlus-12 for navigating around those issues (though for some characters so far like 亂 it's impossible lol)
“決鐘セロバ” is the official Japanese transcription of the full name of the namesake character, Ceroba Ketsukane. I would've just had セロバ but FontStruct forces me to have at least four characters in a font name… so I made up for it by including (barely legible) 決 and 鐘 glyphs. Though it does make it look like it would support a full Kanji set which it doesn't, so I may change the name eventually
As for Undertale Yellow, I've done the Pacifist and Genocide routes, and yeah it's a pretty cool game I'd say (if my many other fonts for characters of the game haven't been an indicator)
Speaking of character requirements in font names, I tested this with non-BMP characters ("𐑚𐑦𐑜"), and no new font was created if there was less than four characters (my test string had three), so it appears to be counting on the basis of Unicode codepoints.
