Version 1.3: Added Polish.

Another asymmetrical sans-serif made for use in rulebooks for the Freeform Limitless Adventure Kit (FLAK) pen-and-paper game system. This one is classed as a hybrid and works well at all point sizes!
It began as a Constant Height design, but now I don't classify it as such since most of the letters with diacritics are taller than those without. A few letters (eszett, thorn, eta, etc.) are allowed to descend slightly, as well.
This font has also found some use on signage at a friend's bistro!
Based on Damien Guard's Amstrad PCW font but redrawn with narrow, rectangular pixels to look more like the PCW's display. (No doubt there's some clever thing you can do to redraw them automatically, but that's too advanced for me, and I did them all by hand!)
BTW I'm still not happy with the accented letters. IIRC the PCW reduced the size of the letters on screen to fit the accents in their 8x8 grid. I might try doing a version like that at some point.
This is a clone of Amstrad PCWLong long ago, I created this bitmap font for use on my Handspring Visor so I could cram a huge amount of text on the screen without disrupting vertical metrics. It's still pretty good at that! This could also adapt well to pixel-art games. As always, I'll happily add more characters on request!
On its way home from Galacto-Zorgalorg, Kitchen Sink crashed on a strange exoplanet. It emerged from its ship to discover the ground was dimethylmercury and the atmosphere smelled of broccoli. As Kitchen Sink obstinately fumbled around outside its ship, it fell into a Pixelation Pit! This quantized Kitchen Sink's body like a garbage disposal, resulting in the form we see here. Pixelated, space-marooned and anthropomorphized at the same time - that's the fate of Kitchen Sink. What a FREAKIN' WEIRDO!

Original size: 7.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
A design with long ascenders and descenders, even on letters that don't normally have them. Good for "old book" text in video games.
This is used in ESOSVM for most text which occurs while the player is in the dimension "Ladede", thus the name. Ladede has a canon, cosmology, and eventing which are seeded by in-jokes relating to roguelike games, especially Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup. A font like this, in that context, is meant to be elegant but also mocking. This makes it seem subtly adversarial, as roguelike game elements are wont to do, and helps let the players know that they are in a bad, screwed-up place that they are unlikely to understand.
A squared-off Chisato Pixel. This loses a bit of style, but has much simpler geometry and is much easier to read. A few glyphs are identical as well, so this is now a Mixed Case design.
Despite its seeming simplicity, I enjoy this design very much. I've added it to ESOSVM under the name "ChiP".

Although Zephram's work is no longer apparent here, it exists in the underlying compressed letter forms and shapes of most of the characters that inspired me to give it a twist and make it monspaced with tapered ends.
