"Xwin" because it's themed around the X Window System's 6x13 font.
This is a clone of 6x13 reduxA square monospace font, inspired by Slatewire (a previous project of mine), Agency FB, and Terminus. This font includes the full Latin and More Latin character sets, as well as Latin Extended A, most of Latin Extended B, and the basic Greek alphabet.
Ambigram-inspired pixel font.
Possible uses for this:
• Code/cipher (about as good as Pig Latin)
• Gibberish/placeholder text
• Making other people think you've taken leave of your senses
• Inspiration (type something, scan visually, let words come to mind)
• Automatic writing (let what you see guide your typing)
• Monogram-based designs
• Texturing other pixel art à la Gremlin Skins
• Writing vertically so that the letters form a neat column
• Prototyping the most visually confusing roguelike game ever
• Actual ambigrams
• Having the satisfaction of knowing that anything rude you write is effectively written twice
• Whatever you'd use it for

Original size: 12pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

An omnilingual cryptographic system which disguises itself as a scrambled substitution cipher. Glyphs are prearranged in groups of four and it is the differences between items within these groups which comprise the actual information. These "words" represent and describe any sound made by any method with any frequency content, and their "strings" (monolinear arrangements) describe the shape, structure and context.
The details of how to properly encode/decode these symbols will remain secret. This is designed in part to inspire others to invent their own systems of this kind. Think about how to do what I claim here to have done, carry it out, and you will have devised yourself something which is human-readable on its own yet as secure as a One-Time Pad.
Gemseeker texts feature in several video games of mine, although the system is only used to display jokes and Easter Egg messages. People know I'm on this site by now, so I can't give them all away on here, can I? ;)
This font I made in a jiffy. I thought about making a pixely font, mainly for coding, so I quickly prepared this thing.
Should I add more characters? I was thinking about adding Cyrillic, but my main idea was a font for HTML, so I only did Basic Latin and More Latin. (ANSI) If I wanted to do other characters, I could have just typed an HTML entity.
Yet I'm still stuck. Even though it is a monospace font, it could be used for writing, so it may need more characters. I don't know. Put your thoughts in the comments if you so desire.
06-03-2020: Added Cyrillic and fixed diacritical Latin characters.
