Some kind of great big ol' chain.

In retrospect, I think it looks like a jewelry chain from a dwarven civilization. Perhaps the hypothetical jeweler cut and ground the stones in an imitation of some dwarven font!

When glyphs are used in isolation, they somewhat resemble carved signets or seals. Increasing the letter spacing allows you to create a variation of the design. (This is something that must be done in-software since the font will render as monospaced by default.)

12SEP2018: Added lowercase... the low resolution combined with the design method make it very difficult to render distinctive lowercase versions of every letter, but I'll keep working on it. There's a lot of similarity between pairs like S/5, Z/2, etc., so this font is most effectively used in forms of writing wherein context suffices to inform the reader as to the identity of each glyph (lists, prose, and technical writings). If you want to use this in a password system or something, I recommend using one case's glyphs only.

Design Rules:

1. Negative spaces will be areas of 0.5 bricks' effective length or width.

2. Negative spaces may exceed the 0.5 measurement only by increments of 0.5 and in only one dimension at a time.

3. Glyphs will fill their framed canvasses to the greatest extent possible while adhering to the other rules.

Megashark's hard 1px outline was experimentally converted to a soft 1px outline. This result is far less readable to my eye, though it does look cool! Its printed words have a balloon-esque, almost organic quality.

"S.D.M.G." stands for "Super Dolphin Machine Gun", a weapon from the game Terraria. The Minishark and Megashark are from the same game. :^)

A minimized Minishark. How does that make it Mega? Well it's MEGA COOL.

I think this is the first 5x5 connected-outline design on FS!

An experiment to see if 3x3 fonts are more legible when drawn in negative space. I consider this to be not only a success, but also the most readable 3x3 design I have seen - particularly the uppercase. (Of course, the size is effectively 5x5...)

A 7x7 outline design which is made to form solid-looking masses from the glyphs while still allowing the outer perimeters of words to take on some unique shapes.

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Welcome to the Pixel Hive.

YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THE PIXEL HIVE

What's the matter? Don't you like square bricks? :D

Font built on a dotted grid. The sort of font you might create with a geoboard.

Style variation in the "STF_CONNECTED SQUARES v2" typeface family.

---------------------------------------------------------

A remastered version of "CONNECTED SQUARES". A previous recap I did from the work of late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

This time I made a much more accurate version. I also added uppercase letters and some extra punctuations.

Enjoy!

Semibold version of Nobody's Treasure. Most glyphs have the same width as before, and the overall width of the font is the same.

ELEVATED - A large 3D outline shadow display typeface.

It's inspired by the lettering from a sketch of great Dutch graphical designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

Enjoy!

Bold variant of Ticketmeister.

Original size: 14.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A multi-line design which is slightly reminescent of mazes/fingerprints. It's not designed to create functional mazes, but it is somewhat capable!

"Absinthelyric Print" is an anagram for "Labyrinthine Script".

Original size: 11.25pt. Use multiples of this value for pixel perfection. (If you use antialiasing, it will look perfect at most any size.)

Design rules:

1. Square bricks and 90-degree angles only.

2. Alphabetic glyphs must have open terminals; numerals and symbols must have closed terminals. Letters which do not terminate (D,O, etc.) must be broken so that they terminate.

3. Glyphs must fill the 15x15 grid.

4. Ligatures and combinatorial glyphs must fit into one letter's space.

5. Draw from the outside in.

Balloon/block style pixel text.

Original size: 18.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Inspired by the Maze Set. A technical fontstruction showing the usage for thinner macaroni bricks. The logic for possible counter relation: 

1) Every letter is filled with thinner version of itself (self-pattern fill).

2) Outline vs Inline, emphasizing the "opposite" meaning of counter.

Fourth recap in a series to attempt to re-create some of the works from late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

I hope you like it.

A clone of Marengi with some brick-substitution and filters applied. Has a "rightward" momentum that seems to push my eyes along as I read, as well as a connectedness which makes words seem nice and solid despite being segmented.

A tear-off ticket design. I went for the slightly gaudy look which is associated with carnivals and arcades.

While making this I also got the idea for a font which looks like a 35mm reel with little scenes on each segment...

Original size: 14.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Made on a whim as a result of rediscovering an old design (see sample).

It's pixel perfect at 12pt, 24pt, 36pt, etc. :^)

Since the inspiration image had only uppercase in it, I took some style liberties with the lowercase. The result is mildly comical!

A connected script which attempts to depict an obvious ductus or flow to the writing. It sometimes has a struck-through appearance, as if the writer's quill has an economical, then overzealous movement.

To set this one apart even more from my others, I built the capitals on a 6x6 grid.

The name comes from yet another old joke band.

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this size for pixel perfection)

A square blocked pixel-like type.

Enjoy!

Fourth recap in a series to attempt to re-create some of the works from late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer". I hope you like it.

First attempt at a cursive pixel font. The name derives from an old joke band, whose name is itself a parody of the name of a toy gun by BoomCo, the "Rapid Madness".

Original size: 12pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

VERSION HISTORY:

09 Mar 2018 - v1.0 released.

10 Mar 2018 - v1.1 released.

13 Mar 2018 - v1.2 released. More Latin support added. The capital letters were cleaned up to make them nicer-looking when appearing in isolation. Excess spaces/lengths of line were reduced to make for denser-looking, more naturally handwritten words.

02 Apr 2018 - "More Latin" and "Google Fonts Basic" ranges finished. More shortening/optimization done for the extended Latin letters.

This is my fifth serifcomp entry

This is my font called Cool Connect. It is an attempt to make a good font using only the Connect set of bricks. Hope you enjoy this font.

An adaption of my previous alphabet. Works best with Spanish keyboard.

simple cursive pixel font

capitals are for connecting after a letter with a stroke ending on the median

real capitals are at unicode spaces 0040-007E
