Experimental mosaic... or maybe a new mineral species?
This one started as a doodle. I began placing circles to see what kinds of complex shapes I could make, and this was the result.
It achieves a new visual effect at almost every size up to the original. Also try slowly moving the zoom slider for some interesting animations!

This font is now nearly 1MB in size! I guess it has to do with the intrinsic complexity of circles.
An attempt to make low-resolution, circled letters without the use of filters. Reminds me of branding irons or stencils. The name is based on a friend's joke about lost marbles. :^)

TIP: This one looks best at smaller sizes (24pt or less) and with antialiasing/ClearType turned on!
WORK IN PROGRESS.
Anatoli Font for use in Anatoli

A written court language used by Ashrians on Bysonce Island, Planet Ashr in my video game Endless Sea of Stars. This one is used for public court documents, and its brother language Calystiphos Hand is used for private documents and old government records.
These glyphs could be considered a form of shorthand unto themselves, since each court stenographer has its own way of writing these down and its own way of abbreviating or embellishing them. Through knowledge of these glyphs, and their accompanying interpretation, one can surmise all of the important proceedings and notes.
*
Common methods for stenographers to alter these glyphs involve:
- Adding/removing quadrants
- Crossing out one or more elements in colored ink
- Drawing connecting lines between points within one or more quadrants
- Inscribing shorthand or marginalia within negative spaces
- Marking or coloring within the central circle
- Shading via different means (scribbling, crosshatching, or with colors)
- Rotating a quadrant upon its own axis
It's important to note that stenographers also often write (either in Royal Bysoncian, Sea Bysoncian or Voktlandish) in accompaniment with these symbols. The idea is for each stenographer to come up with a system of encoding that works for it. Eudastiphos Hand could thus be considered an amalgamate, interlingual cipher built from other Ashrian languages.

In terms of communication systems which exist on Earth, this is most readily compared to Nsibidi.
Pixelated demake of Nirvanite Fossil. It introduces more size variation than its predecessors, and proves even harder to read. The size variation was necessary to prevent these sprites from being too large and to make them more unique from the glyphs in Nirvanite Fossil.
Original size: 25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
The font is inspired by a 5x7 dot matrix display grid. Comment any suggestions for the font. Email me (email:jacejenius.design@gmail.com) if you want access to the font. If you use the font, please give me credit.
Latest Update: Added all Extended Latin characters. Some of these characters break the 5x7 rule, but still are on the Y axis of 7. (26/06/2022 @ 16:48)
Please note: if you request the font, you will be given a Demo font. The full font will not be given. Requesting the font in comments could result in punishment from Fontstruct, therefore you MUST email me to get the font. Checker characters mean that the character will be added. If you want to use the character and a checker appears, do not tell me to add it, it will come when I can do it. Submitting ideas on how to do it will be alot easier for me as it lets me use what I know the users want. When the font is Google Fonts Compatible it will be made a public license and put on Google Fonts. Until then, you must email be to use it. Demo font includes all characters classed as Basic Latin, along with yen, euro, cent and the currency sign (which acts in demo and full as a square.)
