This is an false pixel font in 3d with a right lateral light. This is the first thing come to my mind when thinking of retro gaming. took me more time than I expect, so I only push one font for the Gamecomp.

Blackletter with a fat inline. A mix of traditional blackletter glyph, exploration and grid compromise. _________________________________ I'll complete the missing numbers and hopefully all diacritics. This is a clone

Very rough Script. Vertical design with 45degres connection. Each individual glyph are unsightly but combine in words it has its charm. -- Use Uppercase for the first letter of each word -- All lowercase are connected.

a 2x2 brick size font.///////////////// I had fun playing around with this font, espacialy small details which are hardly noticeable: diatrics, odd lenght angles, compromise the design itself of a glyph with kerning and aspect ration with the rest of the alphabet. well fell free to spot me anything non-harmonized. ////////////////////////////////////// 2x2 brick size VS 67.5° angles... I create bricks which can overlape the regular one on half of it... so it offer the possibilities to make odd size angle glyphs like v y, etc. Dont' know if somebody else did it before there is so many fonts now in FS, so it's hard top follow everything.This is a clone

I love pixel font. I try to be in the middle, a pixel font who look like a vector one, but I kept the roughtness and imperfection of pixel. =================================== I start with letter lbd...I wanted a chop top or oblique on the stem I also put big diatrics to give some "Antler" to the font. =================================== I still have to balance some glyph...I have a hard time with the w. All crits are welcome

Playing around with the new bricks. Came out from the idea of having an inverse video font. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The roundness of the new bricks are cool to explore. More glyph to come. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Some glyphs are weaker: 1 I T of course suggestions and crits are welcome... Enjoy!

I wanted it readable without the white stripes witch permit me to add smoothness inside the glyph ================================== I did'nt went trought all FS searching if an another font like this one already exist, I think no. If you find one, tell me. =========================================== I still have to play with diatrics, not quite happy yet. Voilà! as always be welcome with constructive crits. I've to do something with the 3, my brain is dead for now ============================================ Congrats to pauldhunt witch made a great job with Structurosa. Before creating this font I especially did'nt want to look at his fonts for not interfered with the concept I had in my head. One exception,the x witch I had no good idea so I took it from him. Merci Paul.

AKROY is a tiny readable font from a 2x2 grid. First of all I try as possible to use no Stack and Composite but at a certain point I had to take advantage of FS2.0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The influence is comming from a mix of genre of a same period 1920~1930: European and russian posters, Art Deco fonts mouvement. I imerge myslef by passing in review over an hundred of posters and close everything to modestly create this font. ~~ UPPERCASE: use Diagonals ARSVXYZ LOWERCASE: Mostly Square everywhere ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ here it'is not for promoting a site but use as a reference of those masters typographers and graphic designers of the 20's and 30's. ~~ http://www.internationalposter.com/search-results.aspx?defaultview=browse&title=Art+Deco&style=Art+Deco&page=1

I'm a big fan of big fat font. This is a modest essay. I try to find a way for skinnier glyph like T or Y to does'nt look to thin compare to rest of font. Unhappy with the G,H,7 crit and suggestion are welcome Was'nt sure as well if I should do a monocase font, I tend to prefer when "Space" is not to large.

a V1.0 fontstruct - Minimalist 4 patterns font. I create this font with my head rotated. It's a classic clean font. It's fun to play with size for different screen result, always readable, very small readable in pale grey, mid size get a cool fuzzy , big size clean and clear. We can also overlay text to create shade and overlaping effect.
