A bold variant of Derpberd, again made to have a constant height in order to be suitable for pixel comics. Most of the character widths are unchanged, but some (like m and w) had to become 1px wider for the bold style to work.
08 Feb 2018: version 1.0 declared finished. I'm not sure where else I can take this one without breaking the "constant height" rule. Perhaps I'll clone it and make a version with an extended character set, but only if people ask. :^)
This is a clone of DerpberdAnother Derpberd family font. This one was created because I was making comics and needed a slightly different font for a new character's dialogue.
This is a clone of Derpberd BoldA tasty video breakfast with which to start your day. Based on the scanline font used by a certain YouTube series ;)
(Looks best when used with a negative line spacing, so that your lines appear as a continuous block of text.)
This is licensed Public Domain because it is based only on the glyphs "ACEFHILMNO". These were recreated exactingly for authenticity. All other glyphs are inventions, since to my knowledge only the aforementioned ones appear in this font within INFOCHAMMEL'S videos.
I saw this font was tweeted by INFOCHAMMEL recently. Glory be!
A "placeholder text", "gibberish" or "cipher" font, inspired by the fictional newspaper "Capcom Times" which makes an appearance at the end of some Mega Man video games. Each time the paper appears, it has different symbols and fonts on it. This rendition is based on the newspaper from Mega Man 7 on SNES!

11x11 version of Illuminated Flamingo. Made to achieve a hybrid look between Derpberd Condensed and Gremlin 3x6, allowing this to be used with a greater range of microfont styles.
This is a clone of Derpberd Illuminated 12x12An experimental design inspired by megalithic structures, especially Inca stonemasonry. I wanted to create letterforms that looked like worked stone (with minimal gouges or openings into the stone) and that looked like they could actually stand up on their own as stone structures. The asterisk, quotation marks, etc. are obvious exceptions, since they need to be free-floating (although I did modify their spacing to make them appear to "rest" on the surrounding letters.)
The slants applied to the "stones" are just for style. :^)
Continuing on the theme of choosing a regular shape and making an alphabet out of it.
Looks best at smaller sizes (<24pt) and with antialiasing/ClearType turned on.
Can this be done better with filters? Probably, but I still have to learn those... :D
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.
First attempt at a cursive pixel font. The name derives from an old joke band, whose name is itself a parody of the name of a toy gun by BoomCo, the "Rapid Madness".
Original size: 12pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
VERSION HISTORY:
09 Mar 2018 - v1.0 released.
10 Mar 2018 - v1.1 released.
13 Mar 2018 - v1.2 released. More Latin support added. The capital letters were cleaned up to make them nicer-looking when appearing in isolation. Excess spaces/lengths of line were reduced to make for denser-looking, more naturally handwritten words.
02 Apr 2018 - "More Latin" and "Google Fonts Basic" ranges finished. More shortening/optimization done for the extended Latin letters.
Yet another polygonal font, this time a diamond. :^)
This one was also designed to combine symmetry and asymmetry. Some letters have central lines and some have offset lines. In this way a greater variety of designs was made possible.
A serif-ized Derpberd which works within the limitations of the original font.
I welcome suggestions for this one. It's my first time attempting a methodical serifed look, and the small size of this font makes it a challenge.
This is a clone of DerpberdA 12x12 pixel font designed for use alongside microfonts, especially the "Derpberd" family it's modeled after. These large letters help decorate the start of a new chapter in a manner similar to the art fonts of illuminated manuscripts. I think this makes a decent "high-tech" or "board game" font, too! :D
Alternate style on lowercase (alternate ,.!? are on <>/~). The symbols and numerals have a slightly altered frame to help differentiate them and add some flavor.
Just a simple pixel font I created for use in pixel webcomics. It has a constant height which makes it good for use in speech bubbles, titlebars, and the like. I made this one to look "open" and to have lots of negative space despite its diminutive size. This family of fonts is getting pretty large, so if you make pixel webcomics (or anything else that needs tiny text in neat rows), check 'em out!
This font is used by several Twitch streamers and in several games as well as in my own pixel comics.
VERSION HISTORY:
04 Feb 2018 - v1.0 released
12 Mar 2018 - v1.1 released. More Latin added.
Another variant on Derpberd, this time with the alphabets condensed to a 3x5 grid while maintaining the constant height. This is made to allow a great density of text in a small space while still being readable and somewhat stylish. Useful for webcomic authors, pixel artists, etc.
This is a clone of DerpberdYet another iteration of Derpberd, this one is designed for large high-res applications. It's also good for comics. :D
VERSION HISTORY:
11 Mar 2018 - v1.0 released.
12 Mar 2018 - v1.1 released. More Latin added. Space width increased.
This is a clone of DerpberdThis font is one of several which originates from ASCII art.
How it Works: Chat users send my chatbot (Voluspa) messages to be displayed in-channel, and Voluspa renders their messages in one of several fonts. This one, Voluspa 3, is the default font for display. It uses the block characters ▀, ▄, and █ to render 6 lines of "pixels" within only 3 lines of text - a hybrid of ASCII and pixel art.
The use of only 3 lines helps keep the messages from obscuring too much of the chat, while also preventing the bot from being kicked for flooding.
This font began life as ASCII art, which was itself rendered in monospaced fonts such as Fixedsys, Lucida Console, and Unifont. Now the art is its own font and the font-ASCII art circle is complete! :D
(Voluspa's display fonts are case-insensitive, and always produce uppercase output, no matter what is fed into them.)
Latin alphabet in an Ashrian style, mostly using a 2x3 grid, and using only stacked triangular bricks. Capital letters represent the full letterforms and lowercase letters represent the truncated letterforms used in Ashrian printing and computer systems.
Ashrians are the inhabitants of Planet Ashr in my RPG video game "Seven Candles". Their signmakers, carvers, and woodworkers used triangular gouges for millennia to make their letterforms.
VERSION HISTORY:
16 Mar 2018 - v1.0 released.
A dot-matrix version of "Official-Ish", and a test of the Filters. :^)
The author recommends using this font at sizes that are multiples of 13, starting with 26, to ensure perfect pixel size/placement. 26, 39, 52, etc. were tested and looked perfect to my eye.
TIP: Size 13 looks like regular "Official-Ish"! You can treat this as two fonts in one for art purposes.
This is a clone of Official-IshThe 3x6 pixel font from the Virtual Gremlin, an old game of mine. This font and the 5x5 font were used for most in-game text, as they're the only ones that have lowercase.
A few letters are allowed to break the resolution constraint.
From various games written in my ESOS engine.
When Malil Ehnetahine wishes to speak, she calls up the wind to bring her Temper Tree leaves, which form the shapes of these letters.
This font is accurate to the ingame font and is finished.
A bricks experiment in which the bricks are made of bricks. (Yo Dawg.) The name comes from a Duck Game map created by my amazing friend, Star. It seemed fitting. :^)
Original proportions are reached at sizes that are multiples of 21pt! Use 21pt, 42pt, etc. to get them.
Best with antialiasing turned off, although you can do smooth stone, gel, or gem-like looks with different antialiasing modes in your graphics software.
Welp, I had to make something like this sooner or later... :^)
Like most of my pixel fonts, this was made at the smallest legible size I could manage, so that it could be useful even to small-canvas pixel artists.
More glyphs later, perhaps? Depends on the use I find for this in my games (and your comments).
Original size = 26px (Use multiples of 19.5pt for pixel perfection)
The name is inspired by Slab City, California. Search that name on Youtube for some interesting documentaries and such!
A clone of Marengi with some brick-substitution and filters applied. Has a "rightward" momentum that seems to push my eyes along as I read, as well as a connectedness which makes words seem nice and solid despite being segmented.

Welcome to Tridisaster. It's ALL TRIANGLES, ALL THE TIME. Welcome to Triangle Channel.
Mathematical operators have a distinctive "open" look to help set them apart. There are few exceptions (like ^) because these symbols are used in many non-math contexts.
The only one I'm not sure about at this point is the comma, which works fine for my purposes, but probably makes this font a pain for anyone who tries to read/write at length with it. XD
All Basic Latin is kerned for both cases! Use a mixed case to create weird alien scaffolding! Inverted ",." can be found on "µ¶".

Wood-engraving script used by Ajurru people of Planet Ashr within my video game series, "Endless Sea of Stars". This script dates from 2010, when I first created the Ajurru within the simulated metaverse, ESOSVM. This is iteration 27 of the script, the one which appears in countless forms within the original ESOS story.
This script was designed for Ajurru scribes to show their skills with stone tools. Thus, it contains an immense number of curves and right angles. Most Ajurru consider this script to be overly-ornate, and so it is mostly used in a traditional context - for government records, memorials, and the like.
The "G" from this script is also the inspiration for another font, "Wall Dye".
