Recreation of one of the extra large pixel fonts from Capcom's "Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara" (1996).
This recreation is available in TrueType+COLR and WOFF2. As the heavy antialiasing is integral to the shape of the characters (particularly the japanese ones), there is no monochrome version.
The font includes an almost complete set of katakana characters, which were used in the japanese release of the game.
In the game, there are two variants of this font with subtly different antialiasing and vertical alignment for the latin characters. One variant is used at the end of the first level, when the player can enter their name. The second one is used in most other parts of the game. This recreation mixes the two, using the japanese characters, punctuation marks, and the vertical alignment of the former, but the antialiasing of the latin characters of the latter.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
