The final pixel font recreation from the original 1993 SNES Shadowrun game, namely the futuristic monospace font appearing in the game's title screens and intro sequence.
The font is a 1:1 rebuild and appears exactly as in-game. I have also added some more common characters, diacritics, and other gylphs that don't show up in the game.
On a side note, I want to publish the recreated interface font from the classic Harlan Ellison adaptation I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream soon as well, which is almost identitical to that one but with a few little differences in detail. I also published the Raitsov font earlier under a different name, but added a lot of stuff to this one plus hated the old name, so I think it's okay to republish it in an updated version.
The base font size and recommended setting for Arcology is 8pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning and no additional smoothing effects for the ultimate Shadowrun experience.
Shadowrun on the SNES was developed by Beam Software and released by Data East in 1993. Just like with another one of my Shadowrun font remakes (the Renraku font), I picked the name of this font after the Renraku Arcology, a famous structure/location in the Shadowrun canon. The reason I rebuilt the font is that I needed the original appearance in an indie game project of my own.

Another recreated pixel font from the original 1993 SNES Shadowrun game, namely the monospace computer font appearing in the game's top-down Matrix sequences.
The font is a 1:1 rebuild and appears exactly as in-game. I have also added a lot of common characters, diacritics, super- and subscript numbers, and other gylphs that don't show up in the game.
Unfortunately, the strict 7px grid makes it hard to expand the character range of the font while staying true to the edgy style.
The base font size and recommended setting for Datajack is 8pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning and no additional smoothing effects for the ultimate 1993 Matrix experience.
Shadowrun on the SNES was developed by Beam Software and released by Data East in 1993. I picked the name of the font (Datajack) after the tool that allows you to jack into the Matrix in-game. The reason I rebuilt the font is that I needed the original appearance in an indie game project of my own.

This font is an extended 1:1 rebuild of the main text font used in the Shadowrun game for Sega Genesis. I have added some common characters, diacritics, and other gylphs that don't show up in the game.
The base font size and recommended setting for Renraku is 8pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning to keep the monospace layout and avoid additional smoothing effects for the ultimate pixel experience.
Shadowrun on the Genesis was developed by BlueSky Software and released by Sega in 1994. I picked the name of the font (Renraku) after one of the most notorious corporations appearing in the Shadowrun setting as well as in the game. The reason I rebuilt the font is that I needed the original appearance in an indie game project of my own.

This is the in-game text from Xenogears on the Playstation 1. Most of the extended characters I had to create new.
The original bitmap font used two colors to give the text an outline. This font contains only the outline, which makes it look correct on solid surfaces. If you use it on a transparent surface you will need to fill in the letters manually.
