Recreation of the "futuristic" pixel font from Dinamic Software's "After the War" (1989) on the ZX Spectrum.

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

An extension of Computer Says No by Christian Munk.
This is a clone of Computer says noThis font was inspired by computer chips. Use < and > to start and end a message. Use ~ and u+7f for < and >.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@BWM: You have a point, but fewer people would be using > in a sentence. Typing u+7f as the end of a message would be tedious, too.
Courier (PC Recreation)
Recreation of the pixel font from Codemasters' "Dizzy III - Fantasy World Dizzy" (1989) on the Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, and ZX Spectrum.
The same font is used in all subsequent "Dizzy" adventure games - "Dizzy 3 and a Half - Into Magicland" (1991), "Dizzy IV - Magicland Dizzy" (1991), "Dizzy V - Spellbound Dizzy" (1991), and "Dizzy - Prince of the Yolkfolk" (1992).
Note that "Dizzy V - Spellbound Dizzy" (1991) uses the "66" style left quotation marks (U+201C) at the start of any speech, while in all other games the "Double High-Reversed-9 Quotation Mark" (U+201F) is used.
"Dizzy II - Treasure Island Dizzy" (1988) already used an early version of this font, but with fewer special characters. One major difference is the single quote/apostrophe character - compared to all later games, which use a "9" style apostrophe, "Dizzy II" used a straight diagonal small one. This has been included in this recreation, mapped to "Right Single Quotation Mark" (U+2019).
Also note that the egg character - used to indicate lives in game - is mapped to "black circle" (U+25CF).
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Updated 06/2023: added the apostrophe from "Dizzy II", added the "66" style left quotation mark, and confirmed that this same font is used for the rest of the series, and on all other 8-bit platforms.
Recreation of the pixel font from Rob Pike/CRL Group's "Dracula" (1986) series of text adventures – "Dracula: First Night", "Dracula: The Arrival", "Dracula: The Hunt" – on the ZX Spectrum.
