another goodie :)

Thanks, p2pnut!

I was always intrigued by how well this typeface worked in the game: very clean and easy to read.

(And I'm experimenting with gradients for use in my pictures -- and what better example than the Indiana Jones red-to-yellow?)

I remember this one from The Secret of Monkey Island, especially during the insult swordfights. Good work!

Thanks, LexKominek!

Though I've never played the Monkey Island series (more of a Sierra man, myself), I knew that this font was used in other LucasArts games from the early-to-mid '90s.

And Monkey Island 1 & 2 have recently been upgraded and re-released; during gameplay, you can even change between the upgraded version and the classic version to see what's new (or what's old)!

I heard about that. I'd play it only on the classic mode though. You can't beat its backgrounds and close-ups in all their 256 colour beauty.

P.S. I also loved Sierra games, especially the Space Quest series.

The readability of this font is great! Thanks for recreating a classic video game font, Goatmeal!

P.S. Old-school LucasArts and Sierra FTW! ;)

You are most welcome, Sahwar, and thank you for the compliment!

And you are correct: the outline style certainly stands out much better than a solid version would. It certainly caught my eye years ago while playing "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis".

Thanks to Armageddon104, the letter "g" has been corrected.
