Size: 5x5

Making a pixel font series.

Things that don't look good: (x, 1/4, 1/2)

Is it Ironic that I spent a lot of time making a minimalistic font? Maybe not...

In any case, this is a font I made with a challenge of keeping every character within a 5x5 block size (4x4 blocks for the lowercase letters)

The only character NOT within a 5x5 square is the @ character. It somehow ended up a little wide.

A minimalist pixel font. Perfect for retro or pixel style games and graphics.

Stemless superminimal 2x2. It's small yet bold, much like Napoleon!

Squareish, slightly futuristic 2x2 design. It's made to fit in with industrial, sci-fi, and Soviet-style aesthetics. It's also far more internally consistent than my other 2x2 designs!

Because this uses so much nudging, diacritics will be impossible unless I composite many of the existing glyphs or place them really high... I'll think about it...

Megashark's hard 1px outline was experimentally converted to a soft 1px outline. This result is far less readable to my eye, though it does look cool! Its printed words have a balloon-esque, almost organic quality.

"S.D.M.G." stands for "Super Dolphin Machine Gun", a weapon from the game Terraria. The Minishark and Megashark are from the same game. :^)

A minimized Minishark. How does that make it Mega? Well it's MEGA COOL.

I think this is the first 5x5 connected-outline design on FS!

Strange, the S and Z look better as the opposite of the shapes I expected them to be. 15 letters are basic shapes, 3 letters are 1x2 constructs, 6 letters are 2x2 constructs, and 2 letters are 3x3 constructs.

An experiment to see if 3x3 fonts are more legible when drawn in negative space. I consider this to be not only a success, but also the most readable 3x3 design I have seen - particularly the uppercase.

The successors Megashark and S.D.M.G. are more useable and more stylish respectively, while Minishark strikes a good balance. 

This is considered an E3x3 because, while it's created in a 5x5 grid, it has an effective drawing area of only 3x3. The outermost square only has pixels drawn in it when the interior design dictates such.

A 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! I'm now using it for that myself...

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

A fan request. This is Minecraft's in-game text font, truncated to fit into a smaller grid and then edited for consistency.

The outstanding "F77 Minecraft" by Se7enty-Se7en was used as a reference in drawing these glyphs.

Feel free to use this for your fan games / mods / whatever! :D

Original size: 6pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Another attempt at the challenging 4x4 grid. Only those characters which I could fit into the 4x4 grid were included. This time, I think I managed to get near the level of quality and style typical of a 5x5 font!

This is probably the smallest font most people would ever want to use for general reading. It took no trivial amount of experience and experimentation to come up with!

If you use this to make assets, you can use color separation to fit 4 glyphs onto an 8x8 tile or 16 onto a 16x16 tile. Check out my profile page for more microfonts you can use in your games!

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

Byte-size Outline is an earlier archive of Faraday before I decided to change it up a bit, but I tried on the little various width black dot holes for specific letter loops (as I felt was approriate).  This one had a certain cartoonistic flair that I thought was cool (and has since been, or might yet be, cleaned up out of Faraday).

Originally cloned from Graphee-Tee.  I saw 2 visions for the same original caps, even though I had different outcomes for the caps, and much different plans for the lowercase.

3x3 cipher, based on version 0.3 of "Micromaze". It uses its own form of binary notation for the numerals, wherein the upper-right 4 pixels play the role of the 1, 2, 4, and 8.

This is the smallest font in which I was able to give a unique symbol to every glyph (excluding the lower/upper case, which look the same). It reads sort of like Pigpen Cipher, but is more densely written.

Since MMC is obscure and of constant width/height, it serves many "gibberish" and "placeholder text" purposes in addition to being a modestly strong cipher.

Original size: 2pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Experimental 2x4 font. Not the most legible, but maybe useful as a cipher. It requires some contextual knowledge of what you are reading for the best result.

Original size: 6pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

What started as a revisit of an old Impulse Tracker font, EK-WINTR, turned into an exercise in clarity and distinct letterforms in a small (4×8) array for as much as I could manage. I'll gladly add accented Latin letters on request (or as I get the urge), and I might have a go at filling in the Greek and Cyrillic alphabets soon.

Note: E-Keet Winterlate BC is bicameral (typical upper-and lowercase forms). This is the “Alphabet 26” version (no distinction in forms between upper- and lower case).

Extra note: I have no idea why the vertical metrics are so honked up compared to the BC version. It's a FontStruct™ Mystery™!

Bevangular is a brand new pixel font which explores combining tall, rectangular lowercase with fat, 'bevelled' uppercase characters to create a quirky, imperfect but still unique style. It supports all of the Google Font Basic set.

My attempt at a font which uses only one grid square per glyph. I guess this is the Fontstruct equivalent of pixel art...?

As an extra challenge I decided to use no curved bricks. (This rule was since broken to add © and ®).

Even better letterforms could be created by compositing the entire thing. However, the goal here was to do what I could with the existing bricks. As such, only #?![]{}¹²³ make use of composites.

Modified clone of Shadow by 12Me21.

I added a lowercase character set, but tried to keep the characters as small as possible to match the compact size of the original capitals.

The 4x4 pixel font from the Virtua Gremlin. This one is stylized, and was used for scoreboards and the like.

A 3x3 microfont from the Virtual Gremlin, an old game of mine. This is designed to look tiny and indistinct. Useful when writing jargon, placeholder text, or technobabble (the kind of meaningless information you'd write when drawing a newspaper or computer terminal).

VERSION HISTORY:

08 Feb 2018 - v1.0 declared finished.

Another Pixel-Based Font, Don't worry, im working in other three fonts.
