A simple 12×16 font made up of pixels. Contains all of ASCII, box drawing characters, some block elements, plus some random characters from other sets. Made for use in my ASCII Roguelike. Do whatever you want with it. I don't care.

A monospace coding font with support for Basic and More Latin, Latin Extended A, Armenian, Georgian, (Hiragana, Katakana (these two are being redrawn)), Bopomofo / Zhuyin, Basic Greek and Cyrillic alphabets. Also supports Box Drawing and some other character sets. Anti-homoglyph (does not or should not contain any two characters that look exactly the same)

Latin block is traced from Linux stock VGA8 font. Designed to fit 8x8 grid including spacing, so most symbols are 7x7 =WARNING= Line spacing is stuck and cannot be edited within FontStruct, you can edit it manually, see http://designwithfontforge.com/en-US/Line_Spacing.html for example.

With 6x12 pixels at size 6/8 font, this variant of Zodiac Square will fit two characters in one 12x12 square. To ensure a halved-square font, any accented glyphs from Mandrill (my monospaced, lanky, much-of-unicode font) that went above a capital A's peak were cut, but many lower-case accented glyphs stayed in. Since this is meant for a text-heavy game genre where legibility at small size is important, all of Latin Extended Additional was cut -- it was just too hard to read at small sizes, and I doubt it would be very useful in a roguelike or similar text-based game that needs halved-square glyphs. This looks pretty good with anti-aliasing, but the preview may be funny because it uses the old 2x2 filter. It's called Zodiac Narrow because of the 6x12 pixels, 12 signs of the Zodiac, more Narrow than Zodiac Square.This is a clone of Zodiac Square

With 12x12 pixels at size 6/8 font, the new brick filter options are on display in Zodiac Square. To ensure a square font, any accented glyphs from Mandrill (my monospaced, lanky, much-of-unicode font) that went above a capital A's peak were cut, but many lower-case accented glyphs stayed in. Since this is meant for a text-heavy game genre where legibility at small size is important, all of Latin Extended Additional was cut -- it was just too hard to read at small sizes, and I doubt it would be very useful in a roguelike or similar text-based game that needs square glyphs. This looks pretty good with anti-aliasing, but the preview may be funny because it uses the old 2x2 filter as well as the new horizontal stretch filter. It's called Zodiac Square because of the 12x12 pixels, 12 signs of the Zodiac.

Another clone of my lanky, monospaced font, Monkey! This is Monology, another monospaced font, but it has just one square block, in a monologue of sorts with itself. Really this just means that this font is pixel-perfect and will not have anti-aliasing at the correct size (16 or 12 pt, depending on the program). It should be 6x14 pixels at the largest, including the box drawing characters and block/shading elements. There are also some arrows and the ever present copyright, registered, and trademark signs. This should be more useful than the original Monkey for certain games, but I would still recommend Monkey over Monology for day-to-day programming/office usage as it is easier on the eyes.This is a clone of Monkey

This clone of my monospaced D'Nealian script font, Denial, has an extended character set that contains all of Latin-1, plus most of DOS codepage 850, with modifications to make it usable as a font for libtcod. Libtcod is a wonderful framework for creating roguelike games, but it has peculiar requirements for fonts. This version has a higher max height, 20 pixels from top to bottom, while remaining 10 pixels wide.This is a clone of Denial

This clone of Monkey (my monospace lanky font) still has one width (6 blocks), but isn't so lanky. It is 12 blocks tall; all letters are at most 8 above the baseline and at most 3 below, but the Unicode box drawing characters are one block taller. Since all the ascenders got a little lower, I'm calling this one Low Rider. The fact that the width of every glyph is half of its height could be handy for grid displays in certain text-based applications. Text-mode programs can also take advantage of the box drawing characters. This font uses the FontStruct 2x2 filter method with plenty of composite and stacked bricks, which lets the curves look good at large sizes while remaining sharp on the screen at normal sizes.This is a clone of Monkey

It's a lanky monospaced font: Monkey! Tall, sturdy, and 6 px wide (14 px line-height), most things work here, and it should be usable for programmers. Making diagonals appear to have a consistent width was tricky, so some of the letters look a little weird (lower-case z, upper-case K...), but in my opinion it isn't enough to hamper readability. This fontstruction uses a 2x2 filter and composite bricks, and it was fun to make.
