Nothing special, it's just I realized that I submitted only two fonts. A third entry, where I flipped arcs of lowercase letter "o" and took it from there. The result is an alien futuristic font that some generations might use in the future. Erutuf is Future backwards.
This font was inspired by the Japanese post-apocalyptic cyberpunk animation, Akira (1988). The convoluted story is set in a dystopian future, in a large megacity: Neo-Tokyo.
Unfortunately, I could not finish the Katakana characters, but the Latin alphabet was designed to reflect the style of the Japanese letters.
Remember that time in the future now where we would blame immigrants for taking our jobs, and nobody talked about how robots can now execute many repetitive industrial manufacturing tasks, do gymnastics, disarm bombs, while working 24/7 without breaks, health insurance or labor unions, and how cars/drones could drive themselves with artificial intelligence that improves daily? That was the good ol' day. Now robots can perform surgical procedures. That video of a robot carefully removing the skin off of a grape was awesome. 4 out of 5 medical robots prefer the G1 Prone font for their personal visual linguistic representation due to its surgical precision and linear execution. The future of TeleRobotic medicine, or any laborious human endeavor, will be in the hands of our cold, unfeeling robot overlords. =)
This is a cloneWhat would futuristic type design be without ridiculously wide letters?
Also looks great at narrower widths down to 50%.

I'm sure it's true for everyone who designs fonts, there were lots of artistic decisions made in the creation process. Some letters went through a lot of iterations to arrive at their current state. Almost the entire uppercase were designed one way, scrapped and then redesigned this way.
The future is screen. Super high-resolution screen. Resolution so high that it is indistinguishible from printed text. 4K screens are available on mobile devices now. The future is resolution independent then.
Remember that time in the future, when there was a deadly global virus, then they tried to force everyone to take a mandatory untested vaccine, along with an implanted GPS chip that is cryptocurrency controlled and could track you worldwide, along with embedding additional restritions on civil liberties and personal freedom? Oh wait, thats now. Silly humans.
Future technology, like nanoimplants, will be magically rendered invisible with the use of nanotechnology utilizing atomic sized processors enabled through ferro electrics in conjunction with nanowires and carbon nanotubes operating from a ternary extradimensional mathematical framework. Or something like that.
Ironically, this font works best in macro sizes, not micro or nano.
This is a cloneRemember that time in the future, when those mean, hyper-aggressive, sarcastic aliens tried to take over the planet? Those guys were jerks. But I did like the font that they used to communicate with us measly humans. Alternate extraterrestrial realities are the future.
This is a cloneA FutureComp entry. Emphasis on the balance between future/past with a theme of: "There is no future without a past". Counter-clockwise (inner arrow) direction is for the past while the clockwise (outside arrow) direction is for the future.
ultra grooves. these letters connect to each-other. you can use the '-' to connect letters from the top, and '_' to connect letters from the bottom. not all letters will connect, so try experimenting with the upper/lower cases to see which alts will connect to each other. i did my best to come up with as many combinations as possible, but if i missed any that you think could work, please let me know.

this font was created for the logo of my discord server, "DOLPHIN." it was actually my first fontstruction, but has undergone some revisions and is now being released publically. it is heavily inspired by the font "FUTU" by emil bertell.
My first serious attempt at a font. Please leave comments and constructive criticism. My vision for this font is to be somewhat hard-to-read, futuristic, abstract, and modern.
====[ EDUCATIVE INTRO ]====
At a time when making books was a very time-consuming and labor-intensive process, an increasingly literate 12th-century Europe required more and more books. To keep up with the increasing demand for the spread of literature was a ongoing struggle. Writing materials such as inks, dyes and parchment were very expensive. And it wasn't until the 15th century, when parchment was largely replaced by paper, along with the arrival of the printing press, for it to gradually became cheaper, faster and less labor-intensive.
So it made perfect sense to find other ways to help with this process.
Simplifying a script and cutting back on the decorative calligraphy was the most effective way of doing this.
This led to the development of simplified variations to pre-existing bookhand scripts. One of such forms is littera textualis, categorizing within the Textualis/Textura or simply Gothic bookhand scripts group.
Littera textualis is the simplest and least calligraphic form of textualis. It was developed with just two main goals in mind, to save time and costs. The simplified letterforms could be written much quicker than the more calligraphic and luxurious variations. It offered a more cost effective and faster version to the script. It was often used for less important literary works and academic papers.
It functioned as the standard bookhand script in the Netherlands during the 14th & 15th centuries.
====[ ABOUT THIS FONT ]====
TEXTUALIS BATAVICUM - A calligraphic inspired Blackletter/Gothic bookhand script. Essentially a Textualis/Textura inspired work.
The design mainly follows the concept for a traditional form of littera textualis bookhand script as was described in the intro written above.
It remains a work in progress and I will add update info for this font in the comment section bellow.
Some character still need slight adjustments, but so far I am very pleased with the result. As you can probably notice, the uppercase characters have slight more weight than the lowercase has.
More characters follow soon.
I hope y'all like it
