Recreation of the pixel font from Nihon System Inc/Data East's "Pocket Gal Deluxe" (1992).

This recreation includes the ball number icons, mapped to the relevant unicode "Enclosed Alphanumerics" characters (U+2460 - U+2469).

The spacing of some of the punctuation/special characters (not used in the actual game) was tweaked, to make them more usable.

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

This is a clone of Diet Go Go

Recreation of the pixel font from Data East's "Silent Debuggers" (1991) on the PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16.

This font contains an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters. In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, and positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.

Apart from these, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
