This is my new font, PixelBytes!
My version of Jan Tschichold’s “Schmale Grotesk - Leicht und schnell konstruierbare Schrift” (narrow grotesque - font that is easy and quick to construct), from 1930.
Turns out it isn’t always “quick and easy” to translate a pen and straightedge approach to constructed letters into Fontstruct’s prefabricated bricks setting.
In expanding the glyph coverage, I tried to remain true to the spirit of the original self imposed limitations, both in terms of grid (e.g. the cramped space for the uppercase diacritics), and of tools (see the solution for superscripts et similia).
The font covers all of Google Fonts Basic set and, given the c-caron present in the source, all of Czech orthography. I may try to add other Eastern European languages in the future.
For different takes on the same source, you can look at Serious, here on Fontstruct, or at Iwan Reschniev, for an extensive expansion in weights and typographic features.
As always, comments and suggestions are welcome :-)
mono 7x11 pixel font
times ive downloaded this font: 9
Gimmick font. Weirdly, Google Fonts Basic compatible.
Themed around a "black hole" in the center of each letter that deletes pixels in the same row and column that are in lines that are perpendicular to it, or replacing those lines.
это короче как vcr osd mono но лучше.
this font is like vcr osd mono but better.
This is a clone of 12x16 iskraeasily one of my largest fonts.

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".
