[Version 2.1]: Added "More Latin" Character Set.

[Version 2]: Fixed differences between the real font (from the NES or arcades) and the original (by me).

NES/Arcade Font.

A monospaced version of Barcade Brawl that has been modified to work well as a roguelike font. Not every glyph is centered yet, but all the Basic Latin and More Latin ones are.

A few glyphs (such as #) are modified to break the matrix so that they link together. This is because these glyphs are used to form continuous walls and other structures.

Note also that this design uses a 7x7px matrix which is monospaced at 8px to create 8x7 tiles. I have placed a stray pixel on an unused glyph to make 1px of extra line spacing occur so that the final tiles are 8x8. The preview here onsite adds another px, so it looks slightly out of square. The sample below does too, because it was made before this fix was implemented. 

I was working on another spinoff of this that was high-resolution rather than pixel, but since this font has the same LC and UC, I might transplant those glyphs to this font as well to make it as multifunctional as possible. That will more than double the work of making an already big font, though, so it will depend on whether this font gets used by others. A few game developers already use the original "Barcade Brawl" so there is a possibility...

A serif font wherein almost every glyph has serifs and the serifs determine a glyph's shape. All lines that are not serifs or forming a vertex with a serif are isolated. This is a different technique than I used for Lonewolves Guild and Nurvusystem.

This is a borderline IVO design, not because of its appearance, but because it requires the same set of visual considerations to interpret.

Variant of Ninevolt with the extraneous squares blacked out.

Just doodling!

It breaks up clusters of words wherever punctuation appears. This might help with reading it out loud, by showing how long a sentence is at a glance and making it very obvious where to pause.

Font from the ingame marquee display of Barcade Brawl, a 2015 game by yours truly. This was made to look similar to the system fonts from old arcade boards, PC microsystems, etc. You've probably seen the fonts I'm talking about; they're everywhere and many people refer to them singularly as "the arcade font" or "the NES font".

This is 7x7 with no wasted matrix, but it looks better without monospacing since not every glyph is the same width. It also makes a decent terminal & chat font, at least for those who don't care about the case of the messages they read and write.

Feel free to use this in your games, etc.!

A trimmed-down version of Byblos Unicase! It has a distinctive "constantly underscored" look.

A font with a vague "selected text", "telegraphed message" or "hacker terminal" feeling about it. Seems like something that would be in a video game or creepypasta...

Pixel demake of "Circlets".

Pandora's Blocks is a new kind of box. A better  box. A box that contains things unheard of in the world of humans, a box that dissolves problems and anxieties and casts them unto the wind, a box that turns the words you say and the thoughts you think into ambrosia. Do the right thing and don't not not de-un-open the box. There are bad things living in there.

She was a master Sandwichologist employed by Sir Francis Bacon himself. Repeat, DO NOT OPEN THE BOX.

A 7x7 outline design which is made to form solid-looking masses from the glyphs while still allowing the outer perimeters of words to take on some unique shapes.

I started with an omega symbol, then bent and twisted it many times. This is the result. Is Weirdo English my new calling?

Letters sorta behind bars. I had to use a serif style so that each letter had something to protrude down from the bars to help identify it.

Something barcode inspired...

A 7x7 design inspired by bows, arrows, targets, and arrow slits in castle walls.

It seems slightly Art Nouveau to me, although pixel art is not really capable of those same kinds of curves and arches at this scale...

Portable Vengeance in negative. A few glyphs (such as "Q") were truncated for the grid.

Rather than spacing this so the blocks form a continuous reel, as I usually do, I decided to let things be a bit spaced out. This makes the font much better at attracting attention. And, since this is made to show system messages in games and consoles, it works out!

A pirate font, spreading misery and ruin over the face of the webbernet.

Runic alphabet of the Ormumi, a race of orange-skinned cyclopean humanoids in the games ESOS, Seven Candles and Trap Farmer Brer Brah among others.

A design for Perler bead and other fused bead artists.

These letters are designed to use a small(ish) amount of of beads while still being sturdy enough to make into charms, keychains and such. The letters are on a 7x7 grid and require an average of about 44 beads to make.

I recommend filling in the negative spaces with more beads, but if you fuse both sides, these designs should work fine on their own. I'll test some myself and post images eventually...

A design inspired by mineshafts and the wood scaffolds which are built to shore up tunnels in order to prevent them from collapsing.

Lawgivers' font. Vertical members are doubled, horizontal members are not - except when needed to complete vertical members. Overhangs and bends help to make glyphs more distinctive.

The original logotype font used for Endless Sea of Stars/ESOS, a massive simulation. Designed by me circa 2010.

Since this uses only right angles and has no lone pixels except those in negative space, it's pixel perfect at any size. That's why it's in two collections.

A blade sliced down through every 4th column of pixels. Only a few glyphs were lucky (or narrow!) enough to escape.

"Guillotine Blade" is also an anagram for "Liable Longitude".

Font built on a dotted grid. The sort of font you might create with a geoboard.

Just a doodle. Reminds me of typesetter's forms.

Every pixel of the negative space is trying to approach the letters in the positive space. But, they are repelled from the letters by a 1px border. This leads to a look that is not quite filled, not quite grunge, and not quite maze-like. The filled voids seem obviously anomalous, but can only reinforce the forms they attempt to engulf.

"Tacit Affront" is an anagram for "Artifact Font".

Inspired by the symbol ☈. I always thought this was the Retrograde symbol since it appears near the astrological signs in Unicode. So this font was going to be inspired by planetary orbits as well. Once I found out ☈ was in fact the thunderstorm symbol, I decided to stick with the jagged look!

- NOTES -

Use lower case to get Modern Gryzildan and UPPER CASE for Royal Gryzildan. Hold Shift while typing numerals/symbols to get the Royal ones.

These scripts do not canonically appear together on any in-universe writing. Gryzil writing is always written entirely in one script or the other. But, feel free to use this as you wish.

- DESCRIPTION -

This font contains two scripts of the Gryzil, Brer Brah's people, who are from various video games and stories of mine. Gryzil are a sapient bear-people that live on/near beaches in the continent of Skina on planet Fyromr. They have dull greenish fur, can speak, read, write and use tools, walk bipedally, and have beer fermentation chambers for stomachs. They appear in ESOS, Trap Farmer Brer Brah, and Anime Girls vs. The Cavemen.

The written language of these creatures is designed to be without subtlety. Most of the subtlety of Gryzil communication is gestural. For instance, quotations do not exist in Gryzil writing. There can be a record that someone said something, but only when a Gryzil who heard it firsthand speaks of it is there understood to be a quotation - the rest is simply hearsay.

This font is made as an attempt to anglicize the Gryzildan language - not to write it natively. Hence, it has some resemblance to Latin. But in fact these symbols all represent different gestures as well as different rasping, stamping, growling, and ingressive sounds which are unknown within Earth humans' formalized language studies. Nonetheless, you can write authentic Gryzildan with this. Read the Chalcedony-Bound Manual found in any of the games in which Gryzildan is used.

I made a blocky, industrial sort of style, then added art deco-style line width variation. Then, a couple of tech lines here, a couple of details there, and SHAZAM! We get these 1950's-era raygun-toting space race zippity zap letters. It's a font Marvin the Martian might use...
