I don't know much about fonts. But I can tell that I like the thicker font except for the G, which is a problem for a book called Delay of Game with a protagonist named Dominic Greyson. :D

I love making #pixelart games. But #fonts were always out of reach for me. Either they were to small or didn't match the vibe.
So I started to make a #tool that helps me create pixelart fonts.
The current state is still WIP.

ColrStudio just got a major update: dozens of bug fixes plus SVG effects like blur, displacement, lighting, and projection.
To make it run smoothly even on mid-range devices, I built a custom WebGL render engine.
Have fun trying it out. app.colrstudio.com

An empty, brightly lit indoor shopping corridor. The storefronts along the wall are closed, featuring a series of alternating solid red and blank white rectangular panels within pale frames. Above the nearest storefront is a white backlit sign with red text reading "MEN'S WEAR". The ceiling consists of wooden slats with bright strip lights.
A retail display inside a store showing two canvas tote bags hanging vertically. The top bag is black, and the bottom bag is bright red. Both bags feature a circular logo with the text "ANTHONY D'AMATO EST. 1885" and the words "WORLD'S OLDEST RECORD SHOP" printed beneath it. A price tag of €4.99 is pinned to the black bag. In the background, shelves of vinyl records and a browsing customer are visible.
Here is the suggested alt text for the image: A corner shop named "MICELI STORE" with bright blue wooden storefronts, situated on the ground floor of a rustic, weathered limestone building. A classic, slightly rusted wrought-iron balcony wraps around the corner directly above the shop. The pavement outside is cluttered with various hardware items and tools, including a tall aluminum ladder, a folded orange step ladder, stacks of colorful plastic buckets, and a green wheelbarrow holding a coiled yellow hose. A red and white circular "no entry" traffic sign is mounted on the stone wall at the corner.
A view looking out over a wide, sprawling landscape from atop a weathered, lichen-covered flat stone surface. In the immediate foreground, resting on the stone, is a small warning sign. The sign features a yellow warning triangle for a fall hazard, text reading "DANGER: Sheer drop with no edge protection," and a red prohibition symbol stating "IT IS PROHIBITED TO SIT OR STAND ON THE BASTION." In the background, green fields and a distant, sprawling town stretch toward the horizon under a partly cloudy blue sky.
I recently returned from a delightful first trip to Malta, where I saw new places transformed into building sites and old places adorned with scaffolding. I shared images of the architecture and food on my other social media platforms. Here I'm posting signage I liked. #signs #fonts #signage #malta

Date pad propped up, showing 10 March.
Sheets using wacky fonts to depict the data from 13 to 16 February.
A friend of @NarrelleMHarris's gave her this date pad for her birthday; there's a different font used for each date. I had to tear off a couple of months in setting it up for her - and February had some pretty funky fonts.
Money Monday – Indian rupee /// Check out our designers' take on the Indian rupee ₹ symbol. Introduced in 2010, the symbol combines the Devanagari ⟨र⟩ with a double line and Latin ⟨R⟩.

A screenshot comparison of text only in Blackbeard font and text in Blackbeard with Tagesschrift font for numbers. The text looks almost identical, except the numbers are easier to read and use subtly different glyphs.
The CSS code showing the @font-face properties for the Blackbeard font. Things to note: When using our replacement font we're still calling it "Blackbeard", we just use a different font file and only apply this to the digits 0 through 9. We use the "unicode-range" property to specify that this font override only applies to the digits 0 through 9. Lastly, `font-face` also has a handy `size-adjust` property which allows us to tweak the sizing of the digits, so that the 2 fonts do not have very different font sizes.
A cool thing you can do with fonts in CSS is to use a different font for very specific unicode characters.
In this case we're using the "Blackbeard" font, but numbers just don't read well in Blackbeard. So, using `unicode-range` I'm overriding numbers 0-9 with […]
