v2.2.2: Alternate connected-strokes version for capitals
This is a clone of Avali ScratchFangz is a sharp, blackletter influenced gothic typeface. Using aggressive triangular edges and ends, it's meant to be a sort of vampiric / brutalist font. If you're looking for something blocky yet sharp, simple yet fun, this font is for you!
Dumaxiom is a bold display typeface inspired by 70s-style lettering, reimagined with a sharper, more modern edge. Its geometric base and internal cuts give it a sculptural feel while keeping everything balanced and intentional. It’s expressive without being over the top.
Inspiration struck me at work when I was marking a set of used tires with the name of its owner. Different tire treads force one to write in peculiar ways in order for the text to be legible when searching our tire storage. The essence of "Backbone" was born due to this limitation. Created on the philosophy of being reliant on a far-left line (the proverbial "backbone") and revolving around it as much as possible. Other important themes and limitations are 45 & 90 degree angles, brutalism, and the numbers 7 & 13. However, aesthetics take priority, so you may very well see some broken rules. Intended as a display font, not all elements are fully legible and some characters don't play nice with each other. What else do you expect from a bunch of sharp points?
Same old sci-fi style, but now smooooth! With sleek sharp diagonals instead of pixelized jaggies, this version is more at home in logos, signage, really anything that is not bound by the limitations of pixels!

Here is a version of my 6 segment display with a smaller symmetric design. This aids it in displaying the alphabet, as well as very full and normal looking numbers. I tried to give this one an aggressive futuristic design, using sharp corners and deep chamfers. I think I would rather use this font than Pylos (my last version), because that was more traditional in many of its design elements; this is designed to be a bit more of a departure.
I should also address the fact that multiple characters are missing, or wierd looking. That’s because of the limitations of the display, it’s not possible to do them all without more segments (it can manage as many as the traditional 7 segment, though!). For future versions or styles, I probably won’t keep doing more than the normal digits, but I thought it would be useful to do them a few times.
Lastly, a few notes. The white accents are just to show the edge of the segment, and aren't part of it (that’s why they disappear on isolated segments). The tilda shows an exploded video of the segments, just for reference.
Thanks!
