An attempt to make an entire alphabet by modifying a single heptagon shape. (The "O" is the basis for almost all other glyphs.)

An alternate version of this was made in which I used different bricks to make the width of every line homogeneous. However, it was found that this robbed the font of much of its character. Additionally, the visual effect presented by the increased line width actually made the font less even-looking than it is now. This proved true with and without antialiasing.

v1.0 preview. I changed "E" and "F" slightly after making this...

EDIT: Ah, this was meant to be appended to the comment above. Whoops!

Dear me... I glanced at the monitor, swiping across the live feed, and I see "FOOTSTRUCT". Um, my mistake, but maybe enlarging the opening on the N by 1/2 or 2/3 brick each side would give a more definite N? Great design though!

Thank you :D

I see what you mean. I've reworked N a bit and it should be far more legible now.

V1.1 after reworking several letters. :D

Comment by zephram 4th april 2018

Now all texts are easy to read, all letters are 'obvious' without you having changed the general basic shape you used to construct them with. Well done. 10/10

Greek support added. Lowercase was reworked and improved. Cyrillic coming, maybe?

I like it!
Only 800 for a xenoburger?  You have to be kidding!

Your U-rings are missing rings...

Fixed 'em :D

Comment by zephram 7th april 2018

when you changed N, you forgot to change Ñ as well...

Now we know how Martianoid hens lay eggs! ;-)

Thanks for that, Se7enty-Se7en. I knew there was one in there somewhere that needed updating, but couldn't spot it for the life of me...
