Recreation of the pixel font from Hudson Soft's "The Dynastic Hero" (1993) on the PC Engine - a remake/rebrand of Westone's "Wonder Boy in Monster World" (1991).
The font includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters. In the tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned vertically above their respective character. In this recreation, characters that use them are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Note the special circled roman numerals "Ⅰ" and "Ⅱ", which have been mapped to "Dingbat Negative Circled Sans-Serif Digit One" (U+278A) and "Dingbat Negative Circled Sans-Serif Digit Two" (U+278B).
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Jon Wells/Atlantis Software/Psytronik's "Sceptre of Bagdad" (1987) on the ZX Spectrum.
The font was kept for the 1993 conversion on the Commodore 64. This recreation also includes a few of the additional characters (like the copyright symbol) from that version. Beyond that, only the characters present in the game's original tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Universal's "Snap Jack" (1982). This font is identical to the one from "Cosmic Avenger" (1981), but includes an additional single quote mark. Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the small pixel font from the japanese release of Climax Entertainment/Sonic! Software Planning's "Shining Force" (1992) on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
Compared to the european/north american release, the alphanumeric and punctuation characters are all shifted by one pixel to the left, and one pixel down. The "U" is also different, and the font lacks a lowercase.
This font includes a full set of hiragana and katakana characters. In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This is a clone of Shining Force (Small)Recreation of the small pixel font from SCi Games's "Super SWIV" (1992) on the SNES / "Mega SWIV" on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of one of the pixel fonts from Cave's "DoDonPachi" (1997), reused in later games such as "ESP Ra.De." (1998) and "Progear" (2001). This is a refinement and expansion of one of the pixel fonts from the previous entry in the series, "DonPachi" (1995). Notable differences are the letters "A", "C", "G", "J", "V", "W", "X", "Z", "+" and the addition of a complete lowercase, extra arrows, "*", "<", ">". While in the previous game the font (one of at least 5 present in the game) was only used sparingly, this time around it seems that this font - while present in the game's ROM - was not used at all, which is surprising considering how much more complete it is.
