Pro tip for Myanmar: Use ေ and ႄ before a consonant to get the optimal vowel placement.

The Unicode bitmap font from Minecraft, also known as GNU Unifont. The game has a font priority system called "providers" that looks for bitmap data for a specific character in the non-Latin European character set first, then in the accented Latin character set, then in the game's low-res default font, then finally here, in the high-res Unicode character set. You can override this priority system by going into Options... > Language..., then setting "Force Unicode Font" to ON.
The game stores this font in images containing 16 rows and 16 columns of characters. Each character is 16 pixels wide and 16 pixels tall, totalling 256 characters per image. Each image represents one Unicode codepage, and there are 256 pages, which covers characters U+0000 to U+FFFF. Control characters and most CJK characters are omitted here, because FontStruct doesn't officially support them.
The font is not monospace, however, so the effective widths of each character are stored in a separate file called glyph_sizes.bin. Information for each character is stored in one byte, and the upper and lower 4 bits of this byte represent the start column and end column with a number ranging from 0 to 15, where 0 is the leftmost column of the character's allotted 16x16 space, and 15 is the rightmost column, respectively.
Knowing all of this allowed me to automate most of the steps involved in creating this recreation. I did not use the FontStructor to make this, I instead used a program to directly interact with FontStruct's API. It is possible to add unsupported characters to a font with this method, but I chose to stay within the limits of what is officially supported.
Finished! (Took me 3 days)
Private use characters are encoded in Variation Selectors and Latin Ext. D.
(Inspied by The TI-92 Font)

Sizes of 6 and/or 12pt (or multiples of them) are recommended so that the font doesn't smoothen or gain translucent pixels.
Has support for 104 languages (according to FontDrop)
Cloned from Courierstuck and edited to have the same letter width as Fontstuck Extended.
This is a clone of CourierstuckInspired by Igiari.
A typeface designed to be ideal for coding applications. This typeface aims to be a simple pixel font that can both easily be read at small sizes and also look classy at the same time. Each character is designed to have its own unique shape to avoid confusing one character with another (something I found to be a common issue with most pixel fonts).
This is a cloneeverything on your keyboard is monospace, 5x9 pixels. some special unicode characters are two spaces wide though, so the font is not entirely monospace. there are no characters that are not either six or twelve pixels wide (including spacing)
Ever seen the classic Minecraft font in languages like Russian, Greek, Polish, Vietnamese ... ?

Kubasta is a monospaced pixel font designed with legibility in mind. The glyphs are easily distinguishable from one another and legible even in small sizes. It’s perfectly applicable for retro style interfaces and games.
An earlier version was created with BitFontMaker2 in 2014 and featured in Beat Cop by Pixel Crow.
Strictly 8x16/8x8 monospaced arcade-style font inspired by Old Church Slavonic manuscripts and Cyrillic vyaz majuscules. Designed for all-lowercase body text with occasional all-caps headers, as in historical manuscripts- but works well with mixed caps.
500+ glyphs, including extensive support for accented Latin letters, world currency symbols, and custom Roman numerals, along with assorted dingbats and multiocular O scribal glyphs used in Old Church Slavonic in text referencing eyes.
Support for majuscule punctuation, more non-Latin scripts, and more extended Latin & dingbats possibly upcoming.
If you know any of the non-Latin scripts included, please let me know of any gaps/accuracy or legibility issues!
Changelog:
1.3.0 - Now with (basic) Greek support!
1.3.1 - Finished punctuation, archaic, & diacritical Greek glyphs
1.4.0 - Russian/Ukranian Cyrillic support + small dingbat additions
