Spartan Block is a simple blocky font.  Design goals in creation were to build most glyphs by subtracting the least amount of black to reveal the intended symbol while also retaining asymetry in each form. 

This started out as a joke, but it just kept getting more interesting to me as it was developed. 
Completed countertops can contain at least two pieces: an uppercase and lowercase letter. The left side of the counter starts with a capital letter, which has a corresponding right side piece in the same lower case letter. Numbers and Shifted Numbers contain center pieces that can be typed in multiples. 
The <>, [], and {} make special faux perspective counter pairs. Use sparingly. 

G1 Recoil. It's like a vibrating pixel font. It's got like one strand most of the time. 

G1 Counterfade. Its got faded halftoned counters. Who would've thought.

My third counter comp entry.

A clone updated from a byegone era.

This is my 3rd entry for the countercomp:note that this is derived from "MIDI-TRENTE". The  actual letters, numbers etc have the same height as those on the plates of Midi-Trente.

This version frustrated me when I started it, every glyph previously on a plate required moving and adjusting their letter space (I  have problems seeing the extremely pale grid lines to place letter width correctly): letter space was huge, I suspect this was linked to coming from Midi-Trente where every plate takes up 43x43 px and the letter spacing didn't automatically  adjust to the narrower simple glyphs' requirements.

To make the font more useful I've added almost 200 glyphs to this version. One of them is a design --possibly not an official dingbat in Unicode-- to indicate "e-mail" as many people now give e-mail addresses and don't expect to receive a paper envolpe with stamp as the well known dingbat for "mail/letter/address" shows.

A last minute countercomp entry, taking a deco design and surrounding the glyphs with greater and lesser facsimiles

Another example of glyphs acting as the counter in a space, and this space filling the usual "glyph's white space" in the way the counters were described for the competition.

A classical option with a new point of view (the scrape). The LC is different to make more legible the pairs of equals glyphs like FF, TT, CC, OO, EE... IBYP because I'm kerning a lot of them.  

Very stressful assembly of bricks, I thought I would not finish it on time. Uff! Some glyphs are still expecting to be included in the font. WIP, and kerning.

Half ink cost here, but I like this big contrast.

A funky idea that started with the A and expanded from there. Most letters are drawn by a single line winding around, although some are just not willing to follow this mantra. I found this half-finished while scrolling through my private FontStructions, looking for ideas for the CounterComp, and decided it was already an interesting entry :-)

There's an alternate, narrow set of numbers that can be reached with Shift+number (on a QWERTY, Dvorak, etc. layout); not sure which set fits the style better. Suggestions and critiques welcome for anything, and feel free to clone and poke around with it. Thanks and enjoy!

my entry into countercomp

a font for when you want to be brutally serious and to the point

The counters in breach overlap the outlines of their glyphs and extend beyond them. x-height: 3 bricks

This font was inspired by crockery decorated with a name which I saw offered in a car boot sale. My font's UC has delicately decorated glyps, visible before food is placed on the plates; LC shows plates after the meal, with food remnants covering/filling parts of glyphs  ;)

The idea is to represent counters with arrows. Letters with closed counters (e.g. D,P ) were first opened and only afterwards were represented by arrows.

This might be called a "negative counter" design. Alternative 'Y' is on 'y'. Countercomp entry 2.

Countercomp entry

Los gatos means the cats in Spanish. Cuz i'm learning Spanish and got no ideas for the name.

my 2nd entry for countercomp :3 'ω'

LOREM IPSUM EXITANTUM EST

Countercomp entry 1

serifia la printe the name is just trying to pretend like French. It's not French i guess?

So this font is basically serif + filled counter.

it is also for the counter competition.
