Recreation of the pixel font from Yumekobo/SNK's "Blazing Star" (1998) on the NEO-GEO.
The game is a sequel to "Pulstar" (1995), and iterates over that game's font, with a few notable changes and deviations.
Note the special paw character, which is mapped to "paw prints" (U+1F43E).

This is a clone of JoJo's Bizarre AdventureMy attempt at a recreation of one of the fonts used in FNaF World, Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator and Ultimate Custom Night. I was tired of not being able to find the font myself so I decided to make it myself.
Recreation of one of the large pixel fonts from Capcom's "Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter" (1997).
This font is used (in both a monospaced and proportional variant) throughout the game for character names, in-fight messages, and the high score screen. The same font was also reused in "Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes" (1998).
Note that this is a simplified recreation: the original tiles from the game use a few more shades of the darkest orange colour for a more subtle gradient. However, this recreation groups these together to stick to an 8 colour palette.

This font doesn't actually have an 8 or 9, so I made custom ones.

Recreation of one of the tall pixel fonts from Capcom's "Marvel Super Heroes" (1995).
This version is the variant used in the game (for instance, for the post-fight quotes).
This version is the variant used in the game (for instance, for the post-fight quotes). The main differences from the unused tall font are in the lowercase characters (which are, subjectively, quite awkward now), some of the punctuation marks, and the addition of a handful of extra characters.

Recreation of the large pixel font from Capcom's "Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors" (aka "Vampire: The Night Warriors", 1994).
The same font was reused in the sequel "Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge" (aka "Vampire Hunter: Darkstalker's Revenge", 1995), where it was only used for the post-fight taunt scenes.
The font includes an almost complete set of accented characters.
A quirk of this font is that it's monospaced, despite some characters (like the lowercase "m") being wider than the nominal letter width - which leads to a slightly joined-up look for certain words.
