I was looking for a localization friendly pixel font and could not find any that had good coverage and was not outrageously expensive ($700+) for commerical usage. Thats why I created "PixelLocale".
This font is intended to be reminiscent of the original Pokemon Red/Blue games. Too see how they differ check out this image: https://imgur.com/ixoYRtd
It was important to me to create a consistant looking font across scripts.
You can use it however you like, 100% free with no attribution. Lets make the world more accessible.
Coverage:
Latin characters (815/815),
Greek and Coptic (119/119),
Cyrillic (263/263),
Georgian (83/83)
Hebrew (86/86) (Fontstruct has poor support form Niqqud and Cantillation)
Bopomofo (37/37) (Need feedback)
I'd love to add more scritps. When I started my goal was to have every glyph supported by Fontstruct, but after learning that support for many asian scripts was limited I halted. If someone can shed some light on these limitations and how severe they are and for what scripts they apply, please let me know. I can be reached at "johste[at]chumpware[dot]com".
This is possibly the biggest font I will ever create, and probably the one I'm most proud of at that. The original was built over the course of 4 months, and I'm very, very happy with how it turned out. Along with all of the 25 basic categories, I included 23 of my own - some finished, some unfinished. This has been a long process, sometimes fun, sometimes tiring, but I hope you find this font useful. Luckily, with all of the scripts it works with, it should have a use for everyone :) Please enjoy!
I am open to comments, suggestions and any other feedback. If you would like me to add another script, I am open to the task! :)
Edit: It's been more than a year and I'm still going strong! 6731 characters total. Trying to knock-off some smaller / less used scripts. :)
Jan 22, 2024: Fully finished font! 7500 total characters.
Thanks to everyone who has liked or downloaded! :)
~This "is" Minecraft Gnu font, except it has two times better quality and I added much more glyphs! Please tell me what characters should I add next :)
Update log
7/30/2022: Font created.
9/22/2023: Added Vietnamese characters.
10/11/2023: Added Superscripts & Subscripts, currency symbols and Arabic.
WHAT SHOULD I MAKE NEXT?
Current version includes Basic Latin, More Latin, Extended Latin A-E (E only has one complete glyph though), a nearly-finished Even More Latin, Greek and Coptic, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Braille Set, and some other stuff
Sizes of 6 and/or 12pt (or multiples of them) are recommended so that the font doesn't smoothen or gain translucent pixels.
Has support for 104 languages (according to FontDrop)
The Official Level Font, supporting glyphs from many Unicode blocks, including several alternate glyphs
I was annoyed that there was really no good recreation of the Minecraft font. So I made one and added some stuff like Hiragana and Katakana. :)
