Recreation of the pixel font from Cinemaware's "It Came from the Desert" (1989) on the Commodore Amiga.
This font was also used in the later DOS conversion, but with slightly different spacing.
The font has a few slightly quirky kerning/spacing oddities - such as the uneven space for the "1", and the fact that the "T" and "Y" are pulled further left by 1 pixel. This has been preserved in this recreation.
The original only uses a limited number of punctuation marks. This recreation has been expanded to add more punctuation marks and special characters, to make it slightly more useful. Beyond that, only the characters used in the game have been included.
