This is a decent prototype that should have been made on IBM PC's back in 1987!  It features box-drawing, Latin and European characters.  It is written in CP-437 and Unicode format!  This is based on a CGA BIOS font in 1981.

A font in the style of the [retro]futuristic typeface seen in the 1981 movie "Outland". There are a few variations that appear in the film but this most closely resembles the almost square aspect ratio as seen in the opening credits.

Recreation of the pixel font from Nintendo's "Donkey Kong Classics" (1988) on the NES, which combines the fonts from "Donkey Kong" (1981) and "Donkey Kong Jr." (1982).

The one distinctive feature of this font are the "G" and the exclamation mark. Note that in the original "Donkey Kong" (1981) the period/full stop and the ".," (mapped here to the ";") were one pixel higher than in the "Classics" version. In addition, this recreation includes the maths symbols ("+", "-", "×", "÷") from "Donkey Kong Jr. Math" (1983). "Donkey Kong Jr. Math" and "Donkey Kong 3" (1983) also used this same font, except they changed the "8".

Other than the additions of the maths symbols, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Seen in numerous of early Sega/Gremlin games, mostly on their "Vic Dual" hardware, this font can also be seen in some other games, such as "Phoenix", the sequel, which was Tecmo's very first game called "Pleiades", it also appears in some of Data East's earliest game with a modified "Z".

Recreation of the pixel font from Bally Midway's "Satan's Hollow" (1981). It has been reused for other games such as "Max RPM" (1986). Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Font used in the urban legend, Polybius. I made the font for the fun of it. I hope you guys enjoy it!
