Simple scrape optical experiment with eroded characters. You can find a lowercase "c" in the "¢" glyph and "ff" and "tt" ligatures placed in the "fi", "ff" and "fl", if you need any of them. Suggestions to improve the font are welcome. Hope you like them.
This is a cloneInspired by Special Broadcasting Service’s Mercator Logo.
A new font name as the "Mercator" (named as the shapes look like a mercator globe in 2D) was launched in December 2021 instead of March 1993. It features five blue curved splices with the letters SBS in white. The five splices represent the five continents of the world and the sat on a 23.5° angle which depicts the natural tilt of the Earth's axis. The ID's usually show the Mercator logo without the letters SBS between 1995 and 2003.
A fairly standard 5x5 design with a little added flair. The sort of text you might expect to see in fantasy maps and atlases.
Uppercase only!

A tiny font made for pixel art tutorials and streamer use. The inspiration comes from old art of video game controllers which I used to make, in particular the letters ABCLRXYZ which I drew many times on many controller buttons. The more complex letters (B,E,M,W) take on slightly abstract forms for neatness' sake.
Since these glyphs are all 4x4 unicase, compositing them for use in Fontstruct tutorials might save you a lot of work. Feel free to clone this for such a use.

Experimental 5x3 font. This went through quite a few iterations! The result is surprisingly readable, but still not quite something I'd want to use as a chat font.
In making this I did my best to avoid compression and truncation, trying instead to use the interpretation of light as my guide. Many glyphs don't look much at all like what they represent, but as my eye glides over them, they make sense and I read them without issue.
Telos Unicase with overzealous antialiasing applied to it. It looks as if it were automatically antialiased by 16-bit hardware - a bit smudgy, almost pencil-shaded. Check it out at 2x Pixel size!
Despite its simple looks, this font is just about the densest thing I can create on a 5x5 grid without obfuscating the letters themselves.
While using this font I discovered some unforeseen uses for shaded styles such as this. Since the "antialiasing" occurs in only one shade and never overlaps or replaces solid pixels, it can be easily mass-selected. One can quickly and easily recolor sections of the font, convert it to the non-antialiased version, or clone the layer the translucent pixels are on and achieve more interesting effects.
