Guess what movie I just watched again? A mostly accurate font inspired by the movie "Total Recall" (1990). Consider it an experiment in using the 2x vertical filter.

**2017 08-13 Update**  Taking advantage of the expanded brick-stacking minimums, I have modified the following glyphs: A a R r S s Z z 2 7 ? _ +

The diagonal leg of the R is still not quite correct; further attempts might be made in the future.

I have also removed the 2x vertical filtering.  We are back to good old 1x filtering now.

Nintendo's "Super Mario World" (1990) on the SNES contains a maddening 5 pixel fonts. This is the recreation of the 7px tall font used for the game's message boxes and level names on the world map. UPDATE: in the game, the font has a 2px spacing to account for the outline. in this recreation, i opted to just go for a 1px spacing - if you do use it outlined, make sure to add the extra pixel for authenticity.

Update Sept. 2019: added some missing unused characters "?", "•", "(", ")" and fixed the incorrect "Q".
