Painstakingly redone from movie screenshots.

Characters guessed: Q b j q x z " ! @ _ $ & + ; < = > [ \ ] ` { | } ~

The ^ caret character is an upward pointing arrow, and is shown in the movie. Some contemporary late 70's terminals did this, so I assume this is correct here.

I don't believe this font actually matches any specific contemporary terminal from the mid 70s to early 80s, I believe it was done custom for the movie. It is clearly inspired by the character set from several terminals.

Trying to achieve maximum readability and symbol differentiation within a reasonable size.

The final "Terminal" font style!

This font only appears in Notepad, MS Paint and nowhere else, so replicating it might be a good idea.

The most amazing thing about this font is that it changes its style depending on the chosen font size. "More Latin" (possibly) coming soon.

"Xwin" because it's themed around the X Window System's 6x13 font.

Inspired by commodore64 and others.

Part of a project.

Agent Dagger is a font inspired by the 1983 Atari arcade game 

"Cloak and Dagger" / "Agent X" featuring a full range of retro hacker styled characters with various glyphs and symbols

2019 (C)

A vaguely Courierlike OSD (Onscreen Display) font which tries its best to be casual. The name is inspired by the old computer joke: "Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk?"

No filters or faux-beziers, just stock bricks and a bit of stacking/nudging!

More about the design:

It started as a doodle and an attempt to make a smooth, low-resolution, low-poly font, and then it became a Courierlike. I have other fonts that tried to do polygonal round shapes before this (such as Cartoon Riot) but this design is my first real success in this area.

Initially, I made the angled glyphs before the round ones. I didn't want to change the angled ones, so glyphs like C, O, and Q became a bit wider than they are tall. I'm quite fond of this, because in most designs these glyphs tend to have a tall and narrow character. I think the mildly squat look of this font makes it cuter and gives it more personality.

A lot of glyphs were altered in specific ways to look more like metal type, especially anything with diacritics which touch the letters themselves. Other glyphs were altered specifically to be interpretable at small size. I also use angled contours and actual round bricks alongside each other within the same glyphs, another technique which is geared toward style and interpretability at small size.

This font came with many new challenges and an array of new techniques had to be designed. Loops were an insurmountable challenge because of the low resolution and heavy line weight, so I drew rounded areas to suggest them. You can see it on letters like Greek γ, ζ, and ξ.

A minimized, more stylized Madcat! :D

Version History:

1.3: Added more symbols.

1.2: Added Dutch and German.

1.1: Q* were corrected.

1.0: Initial release.

Font used for rAIn, shipboard AI of the RGS-1 Rainbow Loop. This will also likely be used in FLAK materials, as well.

Font from the ingame marquee display of Barcade Brawl, a 2015 game by yours truly. This was made to look similar to the system fonts from old arcade boards, PC microsystems, etc. You've probably seen the fonts I'm talking about; they're everywhere and many people refer to them singularly as "the arcade font" or "the NES font".

This is 7x7 with no wasted matrix, but it looks better without monospacing since not every glyph is the same width. It also makes a decent terminal & chat font, at least for those who don't care about the case of the messages they read and write.

Feel free to use this in your games, etc.!

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this size for pixel perfection)

A compressed, squareish microfont. 4x4, monospaced, no wasted matrix.

I like how this one uses all the space it occupies. Glyphs like ijl1 fill out the words they're in rather than creating voids. Also, i looks kind of like a lit candlestick, and I like that.

Original size: 3pt (use multiples of this size for pixel perfection)

Version 1.1: KRX were modified to be more readable at small size, MQW14'"@ were edited for style, Basic Latin band completed, More Latin band underway.

A font made by request for an author of custom Warhammer 40K modules.

A squareish and vaguely futuristic pixel design! It is not monospaced but still has a very "terminal" look about it.

Original size: 5px (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A variant of Micro Machina which is made to be more open, more consistent, and simpler in geometry than the original.

Having become accustomed to reading the original Micro Machina, I'm not sure if this version is actually more readable or not. Some might prefer it...

A stencil design in which diagonal cuts are used to imply angles and curves. It does not quite obey the rules of a segmented display, but it tries its best!

This is inspired by some text I put on the side of the Sheepslayer Mk.2, a flying dragon car piloted by Lyll "Hatch" Soretti in my game Seven Candles.

A more bookish take on Comicool, made for more comfortable general reading. It's still useful for comics, as well!

Many letters were squared off in the corners, lowercase letters were given stems, and an assortment of glyphs were edited for more style.

This is the third iteration of Comicool... rather than develop them all toward one style, I tried to make each iteration the best it could be. The result is three distinct, but still compatible styles. This one is probably the best for body text!

A half-sized, filterless version of Comicool Unicase which also has square terminals.

This has lowercase, but is made for all-caps comic book style lettering, so consider the lowercase as something added for accessibility's sake...

A trimmed-down version of Byblos Unicase! It has a distinctive "constantly underscored" look.

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this size for pixel perfection)

A font with a vague "selected text", "telegraphed message" or "hacker terminal" feeling about it. Seems like something that would be in a video game or creepypasta...

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this size for pixel perfection)

An alternate system font for the Virtual Gremlin, a software-based games prototyping system I wrote in 2016-2017. This font ended up never being used.

This was only able to be recovered due to the advent of a lucky screenshot which a friend posted online. The font was in a spritesheet which was being shown off, so I was able to FontStruct it!

A mostly-4x5 design made for legibility, aesthetics, and an almost authoritarian regularity. This makes it suited for comics, tutorials, general reading, and more. It can be easily read at its original size with the same effort it would take to read a high-res design of the same size.

This design has been tested and reported to make an excellent font for IRC and other chat clients!

Original size: 4.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A 7x7 outline design which is made to form solid-looking masses from the glyphs while still allowing the outer perimeters of words to take on some unique shapes.

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A font made to reskin a particular roguelike game. This is made to look cold and slightly insidious. I accomplished this by using a 6x6 grid which, apart from being a slightly odd size, gives the forms asymmetry and makes their enclosed parts look as if they're squinting or sneering. Best seen on letters like ABKPRVY.

Monospacing helps give the whole thing regularity and reinforces the clinical/overly-serious feeling.

The game this is made for has very few ASCII glyphs. But, I will expand this to support all ASCII characters soon. I know many games (CDDA, DCSS, DF) support new tilesets so maybe I'll optimize this for those kinds of games...
