It's the official release day for the highly anticipated Halo:Reach video game on the XBox360! A great excuse to build a Halo related fontstruction. This one was inspired by two Halo 3 multi-player game maps featuring Spartan related technology: Citadel and Guardian. The patterned techno-motif textures on the architecture in these maps are impressively adorned everywhere. It's hard not to be inspired. The design just came about after messing around with some shapes yesterday. The alternates in the lowercase are actually the first iteration of the design, updates are in the uppercase.
Dedicated to my son who introduced me to the amazing Halo universe and encourages my love-hate relationship with the XBox360. He kills me. It's what he does.

Digitally hand-scribbled over a hand-drawn typeface. Do not try this with your regular font making software. Blank scribbles on the spacebar.
Lowercase has tighter spacing on characters A, F, L, T, V, W, Y, etc. Terminal zaps on the parentheses. Center-faded scribbles on the brackets. Square-faded scribbles on the braces. This is a clone

Synchronous with thalamic'sFS Twist, but inspired by the earlier works of minimum, like fs Mingle Co and fs Blit Hack.
Interblok Stroke has a centerline gradient glow.
Interblok Cylindrome has a 3D gradient shade to add dimension to it.

The evil older brother of Ferno. Unleashed from his cage where he has been held captive for two years. wait. It says created 10.29.08. It's been about three years. Yep. He's angry about that. Long overdue for a Halloween rampage.
This is a FontStruct 1.0 creation. Original stacks were created with Will's brick stacking glitch before Meek permanently made it an advanced feature. I was going to update it with new curvy bricks, but I'm afraid to touch it. It's wicked sharp.

Inspired by toy race track construction sets. Although this technically qualifies as a stencil, you better have a laser cutter to deal with it.
Zoom in by Shift-clicking the PXL button to view the deets. All lowercase characters, but the caps are actually wider. It looks simple, but there's some advanced things going on to make this work in the 1.5 filter setting.
Special Characters to connect/extend letters:
_ = baseline connector
- = t-bar connector
/ = ascender connector
; = dip right connector
= = middle-e connector
\ = descender connector

So this was made into an actual game. The font was sketched out a while ago, but after the GameComp started, I thought it would adapt well to transforming into one of those infinite jumper games popular on mobile devices. Instead I let it become a right to left scroller with the player jumping through words that actually say something. It's somewhat meta in that the player has to navigate the platform and make sense of the words at the same time. Simple to play. Try not to stumble over your words as you go about your business and time flies by. Just like in real life.
The game is just a proof of concept and not at all near completed. I'll probably just post what I have to show it in motion.

Clone of even more curves.
Thanks to j4s13 and opipik for starting these curve examples. I thought they were really helpful and I've gathered some of my own to add into the mix.
These are approximations of circular shapes in larger grid spaces. None of these would be possible without using the 2x2 filter. The nudge tool has also opened up the possibilities for mixed curved shapes.
Starting from A, the sizes go from 1 grid block up to larger ones. I've also added some incremental circles like 4.5 and 6.5 grid space. Most of these aren't perfect circles, but they're somewhat more accurate than going the faux bezier route. Feel free to improve upon the forms or create the larger sizes that haven't been displayed.
02.24.15 Added 2.5 and 3.5 sized circles
09.28.15 Added 10 variant, 12, 14 sizes
09.30.15 Added 11 sizeThis is a clone of even more curves

Ant-Man!
Still a work in progress, but obviously it has to be released today.
There were lots of failures in attempting this one. This version was the best rendition thus far.
The preview looks best set below 75%.
