A variant of Micro Machina which is made to be more open, more consistent, and simpler in geometry than the original.

Having become accustomed to reading the original Micro Machina, I'm not sure if this version is actually more readable or not. Some might prefer it...

An improved version of Derpberd which remains true to the original style.

It's still very casual-looking and very well suited to comics and pixel art, but it's also more regular and readable than before.

A mostly-4x5 design made for legibility, aesthetics, and an almost authoritarian regularity. This makes it suited for comics, tutorials, general reading, and more. It can be easily read at its original size with the same effort it would take to read a high-res design of the same size.

This design has been tested and reported to make an excellent font for IRC and other chat clients!

Original size: 4.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Condensed version of Portable Vengeance. Most letters are 4x5.

Possibly the last entry in the Derpberd family: A font which looks like the original Derpberd at pixel size, gets fuzzy at larger sizes, and finally reveals its racing-esque checkerboard pattern once you've enlarged it enough.

Original size: 5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A bold variant of Derpberd, again made to have a constant height in order to be suitable for pixel comics. Most of the character widths are unchanged, but some (like m and w) had to become 1px wider for the bold style to work.

08 Feb 2018: version 1.0 declared finished. I'm not sure where else I can take this one without breaking the "constant height" rule. Perhaps I'll clone it and make a version with an extended character set, but only if people ask. :^)

Just a simple pixel font I created for use in pixel webcomics. It has a constant height which makes it good for use in speech bubbles, titlebars, and the like. I made this one to look "open" and to have lots of negative space despite its diminutive size. This family of fonts is getting pretty large, so if you make pixel webcomics (or anything else that needs tiny text in neat rows), check 'em out!

This font is used by several Twitch streamers and in several games as well as in my own pixel comics.

VERSION HISTORY:

04 Feb 2018 - v1.0 released

12 Mar 2018 - v1.1 released. More Latin added.

Simple mostly 4x5 pixel font created from scratch for use in my Dot Matrix Circuit, a Pebble watch watchface posted here

I may tweak/add onto this if needed for personal reference.

Any suggestions, comments?
