Pixel font recreation based on two of the main fonts appearing in the Syndicate game for the SNES.
The font is a 1:1 rebuild and appears exactly as in-game. I have also added many of more common characters, diacritics, and other gylphs that don't show up in the game. A full set of the Japanese version's katakana characters is also included.
The base font size and recommended setting for Syntricate is 5pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning and no additional smoothing effects for the ultimate pixel experience.
Syndicate on the SNES was developed by Bullfrog Productions and released by Ocean Software in 1993.

If you're playing the Cube World steam release, this is probably the font you want. The star is in place of the ± symbol, so the UI looks correct. This variant has much cleaner lowercase characters.
Cubish EPX is a re-imagining of the 'resource1.dat' block letter font from Cube World, now with less coarse pixelization and more consistent 'EPX-style' pixel filtering for smoother angles and spacing. A number of unclear characters have been cleaned up as well, especially in the international extended Latin characters. A dot was added to the numeral zero to disambiguate it from the letter O, as well.

Version 20190922.e
This is a clone of Cubish EPXA font based on the Cube World 'resource1.dat' font, but with a few missing international characters added. This font variant respects the Cube World Steam release, which has a star in place of the 'PLUS-MINUS SIGN' (U+00B1), and a filled circle/coin in place of the 'REGISTERED SIGN' (U+00AE). The original 'correct' symbols (from the Cube World alpha release) for those two characters have been placed at (U+2213, but flipped upside down) and (U+24C7) respectively.
The font is all caps. The font may appear slightly smaller in-game than the original font did, but I could not work around this issue despite trying to adjust the filter/scaling.
To use this font in-game, download and extract it, and rename the .ttf file to 'resource1.dat', and paste it replacing the original file in the Cube World installation directory.
I tried to accurately reflect the somewhat odd pixel spacing of the original font, where it used 5x5 blocks of pixels, where the block was either entirely empty, entirely filled, filled with a 4x4 block offset to one corner, or filled with a 2x2 block offset to one corner. The only character that does not follow this rule is the Star character.

This is a clone of CWBlockFontAn accurate re-rendition of the 'resource1.dat' font from Cube World. All of the 'pixels' of the font are made up of 5x5 patterns. (Well, for every character except the star, which uses a different 2x2 pattern.) This font follows the exact original ordering of characters from the alpha, but also puts the steam release star and filled circle at their correct unicode offsets.

Please note that unlike the Cube World font from the 2019 steam release (but like the 2013 alpha), the ® and ± characters are actually those characters, and the filled circle and the star characters appear at their correct unicode offsets. If you want a font with the ® replaced with a filled circle, and the ± character replaced with a star, see 'Cubish EPX Tweaked'.

This is a cloneA non-pixelated font heavily inspired by the Cube World "resource1.dat" font. This font matches the character presentation from the Cube World alpha version. Hence, the star and filled circle do not appear in place of the plus-minus and registered trademark symbols, so it will look a little strange if used in the steam version.
Version 20191026.c
This is a cloneThis is a version of 'Cubish EPX' with the star replacing the ± symbol, and a filled circle replacing the ® symbol, and no other changes. The steam release of Cube World very likely wants the font like this.

This is a clone of Cubish EPXThis is a recreation of a raster font from a real Pac-Man machine with modified symbols. Currently, it has American and some European characters. This is good enough for a retro feel, useful for gaming and might be used for personal or commercial purposes. I've attempted to transform to a rounded character font. Hope you like it!

I don't consider this version with lowercase characters to be really done yet, there's definitely a few things that still need work, and the Extended Latin-1 lowercase characters need to be finished out.
Version 20191031.b
This is a cloneRecreation of "Normal Centipede" from CPFONTS.FON, included in Microsoft Arcade from 1993.
The original font seems to have been intended to be capital letters and numbers only, with what appears to be poorly-resized bitmaps from a different font in the rest of the character set. Some, especially the punctuation, were literally illegible. So I hope you'll forgive me that this isn't a 100% faithful recreation.
Reconstruction of the typeface used on most video games from Konami in systems as MSX and NES - earlier games used MSX's default typeface. This typeface differs from the most known at this style (7x7) used at games like Pacman and Super Mario Bros (on truth, since 1977, at B&W coin-op machines).
Lowercase letters were done by me, never were seen at that games and probably don't match any font with lowercase letters used in games, the far as I know.
