Third font in a series of three colour pixel experiments, made after reading Arcade Game Typography: The Art of Pixel Type by Toshi Omagari. This one has a double shadow, which gives an extruded 3D effect at a smaller scale.
Feeling inspired after reading Arcade Game Typography: The Art of Pixel Type by Toshi Omagari, I set out to make my own 8x8 pixel font. I worked with a similar approach to the one I used in the larger grid font offstruct rgb.
First started in Adobe Illustrator, each character consists of three iterations of the same 6x6 pixel letter: in RGB Red, Green and Blue. These were layered, offset by one pixel diagonally, filling the 8x8 box. To achieve additive blending, I applied the "Lighten" transparancy setting. Combinations of overlaying these three primary RGB colours result in the secondary RGB coloured pixels Yellow, Cyan and Magenta. In the additive mixing of coloured lights, the equal blending of all three primary colours results in White. All pixels were then entered manually into the fontstructor and black pixels were added for display purposes.
This is the display font from the Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus CE calculator. This is different from the TI-84 Plus calculator, because the resolution of the CE is approximately three times higher. This was published on March 2nd, 2023 and is the original TI-84 display font that is a usable type font.

Clone of Tirrel (by Doug Peters). Copyright 2019 Doug Peters.
This version has the 'soft' alternates. These are the lowercase characters in 'Tirrel'. The idea is that if someone is used to using the shift key and only wants the softer style of the font, they can use this version and they will only get all the caps versions of Tirrel whether they use shift or caps lock (or not).

Tirrel font is Copyright 2019 Doug Peters.
This is the original version of Tirrel. Although a display caps font, the uppercase has a hard, bold, brash version of capitals while the lowercase holds the 'softer' alternates with more defined characters. If you only want one or the other and have the habit of using shift (or caps lock), there should be two other versions of this font accompanying it, one "Tirrel Hard" and the other Tirrel Soft" to relieve frustration of those who type well.

Not finished yet. Still have greek, Cyrillic, and other characters used in retro computing to do.
7-segment display and characters to create arbitrary fractions can be found in the Private use Area.
Note that some characters extend slightly beyond the 16x16 grid to conserve character space in the font
