A pixel font which uses diagonal arrangements only, resulting in several optical illusions at once! It can appear to have solid lines, gradients, polka-dots, and more.

The negative spaces within the glyphs are as few as possible, to facilitate coloring them in. A few of them ("V", "W", "7", "^" etc.) are a bit arduous... I recommend zooming way in while coloring them...

Since this is a doodle, I'm not sure how I'll complete it yet. Presently, the best idea I have is to clone the uppercase to the lowercase, then alternate the checkerboard patterns on the lowercase so that each letter can be animated. This would result in something a lot like Pixel Flames, but much more eye-straining to look at.

Or, I could make the lowercase set match the negative spaces on the uppercase, so that we get more of a "blinking neon" effect.

Thoughts?

Continuing my experimentation with diagonals. My goal was to make a font without vertical stems. English has 12 capital letters with vertical stems. Diagonia has 4.

Foundation is a typeface inspired by those found on covers and posters throughout the movie industry such as the popular “Blade Runner.” The goal was to create a typeface that evokes a sense of power or boldness. Through the use of expanded letters and strong diagonals, this font is best used in titles or short messages.

The name Foundation was chosen due to the anatomy of the typeface. It is built in two layers creating the appearance of a structure that has been built onto a base.

Inspired by DICE's font and nature, I have assembled a somewhat modern-type font that looks great for small text and titles. Although this font is not able to be cloned or edited, it is free to use anywhere as long as there is credit. This font is not completely finished, so some symbols are missing, but most are rarely used anyway.

This font is based off my Kaztora Logo font, but with more letters, and it's usable anywhere (the K no longer has a tail).This is a clone of Kaztora Logo

This is my first font. It's a simple font that is monospaced using a grid of only 4 by 4 pixels, and only squares and diagonals. The result was a futuristic font that looked surprisingly good given the parameters. It's capitols and lower cases are the same, it does have #s, but only typical puntuation besides that... sorry. I'll revise it and add lowercase if anybody downloads. This would be a terrible font to type in a bunch in because it's not the easiest to read, but it would be cool for a futuristic looking title. Anyway just want to see if anyone would like the font, you are obviously interested as you're reading the description (or just extremely bored)

The first font I every made. Tried to get creative by combining grid based fonts and the feel of old German Fraktur fonts. I am always open for feedback!

My first 'small' font, it is an experimental for me but I think it is useable. I'm aware of different design elements in here (ex. on the e,s,y,H,R,...). I had to see how far I could get with a dot, a square and 4 corners. It will help me see how I can build smaller fonts. I'll get working on this soon, please comment to help me see solutions :)

This is a typeface based on the word dynamic, I looked into electricity, and thought that circuit boards would be a great sector to look at. Using parallel lines and consideration of the way the type flows.

This is a typeface based on a theme of reflection for a project on the BA(hons) graphic design course at UWE. It's based on the reflection used in comic books. With a use of thick and thin diagonals to create a reflective effect.

Inspired by the word 'dangerous' I have created a fontstruction based upon voodoo, ouija boards and back words writing. The font tends to include different shapes for instance 'crosses', some of these shapes have been inspired by typeface designer, Rudolf Koch 'book of signs'.

The idea of this typeface is that none of the sides/edges are allowed to the facing directly (mirror image) opposite which is the top right corner.

Condensed typeface based on a sort of rhombic pattern counterbalanced by a strong emphasis on the vertical. As computed by fontstruct, letter-size is roughly 3/4 of common definitions, which means that you have to set Sycamore to e.g. 24pt if you want to achieve a 18pt impression. Also available in Light style.This is a clone of Sycamo Light
