Recreation of the hiragana and katakana pixel fonts from Konami's "Akumajō Densetsu" (aka "Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse", 1987) on the Nintendo Famicom.

This font is only used on the title screen, intro story crawl, and dialog boxes - otherwise, the game uses a standard "Nintedoid" type font like https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/676742/nintendoid_1. In contrast, the western release uses a single stylised font throughout - see https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/682911/castlevania_3_1.

In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.

The game also uses a handful of actual kanji characters - however, due to their limited number and usefulness, these have not been added in this recreation.

Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Recreation of the katakana pixel font from Konami's "Dracula II: Noroi no Fūin" (aka "Castlevania II: Simon's Quest", 1987) on the Nintendo Famicom.

While the title screens use the same latin font as the western releases (see Castlevania 2 - https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/682905/castlevania_2_1), this font is used in the game itself (including the dialog boxes and inventory/menus) . In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned to the right of the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.

The font also includes a set of basic box drawing elements (U+2501, U+2503, U+250F, U+2513, U+2517, U+251B).

Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Recreation of an unused (?) pixel font found in the ROM for Konami's "Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance" (2002) and "Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow" (2003) on the Nintendo Game Boy Advance.

This font includes a full set of katakana characters. In the tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, likely positioned after the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single (16px wide) glyph.

Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

What a horrible night to have a font!

This font adds upon the font "Castlevania 2" by Patrick Lauke. I am a coder, and simply can't use fonts without their having all the necessary symbols. I did this very quickly, and it may be inaccurate or imbalanced so feel free to take it and remix it yourself!

 

Recreation of the primary pixel font from Konami's "Akumajō Special: Boku Dracula-kun" (1990) on the Nintendo Famicom. It includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters.

Note that in the game, the dakuten and handakuten are rendered as a character on the preceding line, while this recreation includes characters with these diacritics in the correct position in the correct character codepoints themselves - for this reason, the characters themselves are taller than 8 pixels.

Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
