ELEVATED (PRINT) - A 3D outline display typeface design with shadow effect.
It's inspired by the lettering from a sketch by great Dutch graphical designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".
===========================================================
This is the long overdue shadow style variant which was requested by Goatmeal and elmoyenique. It has diagonal shading lines included (as was also presented in the original sketch by Jurriaan Schrofer)
This rework has one major difference compared to all previous versions, once more it was constructed with a different size to grid ratio, one that corrects the size distribution, enabling the recreation of the original sketch with high accuracy.
The stroke weight in this "PRINT" version more accuratly mimics the original sketch and therefor is not optimized for digital display use.
===========================================================
The shadow effect is the default style for this font, this also includes all numerals, punctuation marks and other symbols that make up the full font, these occupy the uppercase. The outline style A-Z glyphs occupy the lowercase.
Enjoy!
This is a cloneFirst 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.
Corded modernist minimalism script typeface design.
It is trying to mimmic letters written with a bend metal wire or a chord.
It is only in lowercase letters at the moment no numerals and only very limited punctuations. But It is still very fun to play around with.
And my apologies for putting a sting of glyphs with only a line showing in the numeral block but I did this to make the pangram for the font show up in when viewed from the gallery
A variant of Radio Grave which took many hours to produce. I think the effort was worth it! This is a functional Multi-font and can produce a broad range of effects, especially when used at down near the original size.

Shading Rules:
1. Use the darkest tone on the outermost concentric region and get lighter as one progresses inward.
2. Let the 5x5 region surrounding the exact center of each glyph use the lightest tone, except when this would place the lightest tone into its neighboring region.
3. Glyphs with diagonals and glyphs which use a smaller than 5x5 drawing area may bend rule 2 for the sake of more consistent and/or interesting shading.

This is a clone of Radio GraveI went and mangled Spelunker by Zephram. I am messing with the shapes of the spaces between the letters. The name of the font indicates that most of the letters are wearing bell bottoms.
This is a clone of SpelunkerThis typeface was created on the main theme of 'Protection' that i later explored in the idea of fences and how they can protect us from the outside world. I wanted my letters to connect with one another creating the illusion of a fence and potraying unity.
ORIENTFAHRTEN (Pro) — Semi-connected script-style font design
═══════════════════════════════════
Losely based on the lettering that was seen on a 1929 poster design by German painter Ottomar Carl Joseph Anton (1895-1976) for the “Hamburg-Amerika Line” * (click for image of the original poster)
Whereas the original (non-Pro)-version aimed at extracting that “stylistic essence” of the lettering, and made an attempt at extrapolating and restoring a full alphabet from the letters provided by the original poster. And this basically became sort-of a font revival with a little extra's.
ORIENTFAHRTEN (Pro) than took this to a whole other level, This refor-mation wasn't guided by Ottomar's original poster-lettering, but rather a remodeling and amelioration of my initial work.
Many glyphs were fully re-invented, others only just partially improved.
In addition to this, many new things were introduced as well. For example, the font was further ornated with various typographic elements and bits, reminiscent of calligraphic hand lettering. Turning this into a much more attractive looking little novelty.
Also some “technical” restructuring of the Unicode character mapping, to creating more user-friendly text formatting properties.
Since it is a semi-connected script, certain characters were deliboratly disconnect and some weren't. For example, the uppercase letters almost all disconnect, whereas the majority of lowercase letters will connect by default. A set of glyphs alternate forms was included that allow to break the 'connected' flow of a text.
These also function sort-of as “Contextual Substitutions”, but without OpenType's automated glyph-stream lookup classes. Yet these do allow the manual control over word-endings and word-space situations. So when a default-glyph is followed by a white-space, a glyph-alternate form could than be selected to replace the default-character encoding and improve overall aesthetics and natural flow of text. These substitutions are located in the “Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms” and “Private Use Area's” Unicode blocks. In addition to the default alphabet letters the font also includes numerous symbols and punctuation marks, as well as ligatures.
As for the “numberscomp” that is currently in progress:
This font was specially fitted with 5different schemes for text figure arrangement.
• Didot-(old style) non-lining (font default)
• Traditional-(old style) non-lining
• Clean-(modern) lining
• Tradidotional-(old style) non-lining
• Ornate-(modern) lining
— This does temporarily create a new problem for me though... As this would be my fourth submission to the competition, where a maximum of only three font submissions is allowed. Now, which of these previous entries am I going to eliminate?!
I hope you like it,
Cheers
This is a cloneStyle 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!
This is a cloneAn evil electromagnetic zigzag tape reel. Looks almost embossed, as if the letters were "pressed" into the waves somehow. In that way it reminds me of old hand-operated label makers. It also makes me think of electricity, TV static, ocean waves, tire tracks, fractured glass, and more depending on font size and color.
The name is inspired by an attack from a notorious NES game, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde".
A connected script which attempts to depict an obvious ductus or flow to the writing. 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 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.
This is a clone of MarengiA design that looks like a top-down view of ziggurats!
I composited the diacritics so they'd fit into place, but this means that most anything non-English needs to be pretty large to be unambiguously read...
While walking through Glitch Forest, you spot a sudden movement behind the Sprite Trees. It's [EVIL_ANGATONIST]! With a twisted smile, s/he/it converts your words into text written in this font. ZOUNDS! How will you get through summer school now?

This was made to reproduce an amusing glitch found in MIDAS which caused insanely high ratings of 17.3×10^213 (17.3 septuagintillion). The glitch has since been fixed.
By request, a high-contrast, blocky connected-outline font. This will be used in some Roblox mods.
A few glyphs are a bit quirky compared to the rest (DQ7?= and any glyph with a median line). The requestor wanted them that way.
