i legit did this in an hour ( filler upload )
update: added all english (uppercase and lowercase) letters
normal letters: ACEFGHIJLOPSUZabcdefghijlnopqrstuyz
compromised letters: KMVWXkmvwx
uppercase letters that look like lowercase: BDNQRTY
This font idea popped into my head when I came across this YouTube video about segmented displays. The "X-O" LCD idea was the most fascinating to me and I challenged myself to try remaking it... and ended up completely revamping it to include "lowercase" letters, and improve legibility (for the most part)
Based on lettering used for LCD information displays in the 1980s and 1990s.
Improved it.

Inspired by a comment by jonrgrover.
I built diamonds sized according to the Fibonacci series, then made a segmented display out of them. The design was then carved away to make the glyphs you see here. I used the members 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8. These sizes proved most feasible to work with in this sort of arrangement.
I gave the terminals a flared appearance which I think makes the glyphs look slightly Celtic. The design also makes me think of beach sand and things found on the beach - shells, pretty rocks, and so on.
An experimental 15-segment display which looks rather like a fence.
There's no DE-FENSE against DE-FENCE!

While walking through Glitch Forest, you spot a sudden movement behind the Sprite Trees. It's [EVIL_ANGATONIST]! With a twisted smile, s/he/it converts your words into text written in this font. ZOUNDS! How will you get through summer school now?

This was made to reproduce an amusing glitch found in MIDAS which caused insanely high ratings of 17.3×10^213 (17.3 septuagintillion). The glitch has since been fixed.
Nirvanite Fossil with round shapes changed to diamonds.
I think this one is the toughest to read in the family - even harder than Nirvanite Pixel. Oh well!
This is a clone of Nirvanite Fossil24-segment display. This one belongs to a small family called Calculatrix.
Like Calculatrix 12, this one is spaced so that every segment appears in its proper place, as if the text were being rendered on one giant display. (If using this in your own software, you will want to check the line spacing as it can vary depending on the software.)
I suppose this font could be used for weaving or embroidery work, as well... it has that look about it...
TIP: Try zooming out while already at Pixel size!
