I took a look at the very first font I published and looking back at it now, I couldn't help but think I could have done better and gone much further with it. Having learned a few things along the way when I was working on the light version of Pixelbabania, I decided to invest some time into working on a much improved version of Pixelbabania VI, while once again following a self-imposed limitation. This time, I decided to go with 6x9 (with some exceptions) to allow a bit more wriggle room and to make characters with accents much nicer, and even decided to change up some of the characters to improve their look. Not only this, I decided I'd try and see if it was possible to add more characters from other sets and thus far, it had gone quite nicely.
After so much time on and off, now I share with you the fruits of my labor and love.
Note: I have done what I could to get N'ko and to a lesser extent Adlam to play nice; unfortunately I could not get the tone marks to actually just go above or below the characters properly, therefore they will take residence right next to the character, taking up another space. Apologies for any inconvenience caused to those who type in those languages.
Update - 25/11/2023 : Went through the Lydian set, and fixed up three glyphs a tiny bit, 10924, 10925 and 10928.
Small Code is a grotesk monospaced font that is designed to include a variety of languages encoded in the BMP and SMP.
It also has a variety of letters in the PUA, such as capital versions of most Latin letters without capitals, characters for Latin letters not included in the Unicode standard, Swedish Dialect Alphabet compatibility characters, archaic IPA characters, Initial Teaching Alphabet characters, miscellaneous Cyrillic letters, Latin phonetic symbols, Tifinagh combined characters, alternate Latin letters for African languages and Polish, medieval extensions, unencoded and lowercase Roman numerals, unencoded mathematical symbols, numbers, superscripts and subscripts, unencoded control symbols, combining numbers, Unifon, unencoded fractions, IMFI forms of Arabic letters not encoded in Arabic Presentation Forms-A and -B, IMFI forms for Adlam, Powerline symbols, and coding ligatures.
This is my largest font yet!
This font has risen up to #5 on character count!
UPDATE: This font has fallen back to #8. :(
UPDATE 2: In the PUA, the upcoming Myanmar Extended-C block and Tai Khamti digits.
This font has extensions listed here:

BlockKie. This font is based on both "Helvetica" and "Roboto" fonts, and with numerous characters to simply make them more familiar, containing height limit of 16p for most letters, 20x20p limit for CJK/ideographic characters. After downloading it, you can tell me in the comments how was your performance with this "so classic" Sans Serif font! Thanks for downloading :D
