Recreated directly from screenshots I took of the game. I replicated every character I could find and extended the Latin set from there.
I haven't played much of the franchise, but I always loved the typeface used in the journals and was surprised no one else had recreated it.
Large font used in numerous Atari video arcade games, 1984-1987. As the original font uses three different colors for a font-smoothing effect, I attempted to replicate it in two-color by using differently-sized squares. Not sure how well that works; as such, any suggestions are welcome. Best below 20 pt.
Clone of The Video Arcade Game Font. The ubiquitous video game font standard, likely designed by Lyle Rains of Atari; first used in 1976's "Sprint 2" by Atari, and then on until well into the 1990s. Used by most video arcade game companies, including (but not limited to): Namco, Williams Electronics, Irem, Atari, Konami, Bally-Midway, Taito, Nintendo and Sega. The lower case characters are from several Atari video arcade games from 1984-1987. Plenty of alternate characters -- variations used in conjunction with the standard font, all selected from a variety of MAME32 game roms.
This is a clone of The Video Arcade Game Font***APRIL 2023 UPDATE***
A few more characters added and spacing of the "I" letters and their variants readjusted... Also, some characters redesigned... More to come...
An attempted recreaction of the Atari Games variation of the "Joystix", "Emulator" and "Emulogic" text fonts as used in-game and during tests from 1984 to 1998... Used in games such as Gauntlet, Xybots, Pit Fighter and Hard Drivin', among various others -- albeit with some custom deviations and extra characters NOT used in the actual text style itself... Also, upon further research, spacing between the actual letters vary by individual game (based on internal alpha tests)...

A recreation of the pixel font from Tecmo's "Silkworm" (1988). The majority of characters are from the NES version, but some particularly awkward ones have been replaced with their equivalent characters from the Amiga and Atari ST version of the game.

Recreation of the pixel font from Codemasters' "Rockstar Ate My Hamster" (1988). Slightly expanded with a few additional custom characters not present in the original game.
Edited (11/2016) to fix some of the characters, based on a more accurate source (C64 emulation of the game) and to include the "BLACK LARGE SQUARE" (U+2B1B) unicode character.
Recreation of the colour pixel font from The Bitmap Brother's "Gods" (1991) on the Amiga and Atari ST.
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support. For a monochrome version, see this recreation.
Only the characters used in the game have been included.
This is a clone of Gods (Amiga)Recreation of the pixel font from Horror Soft/Adventure Soft's "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark" (1990). This font was also used in "Elvira II: The Jaws of Cerberus" (1991) and "Waxworks" (1992).
Slightly expanded to complete the set of accented characters, beyond the ones used in the French and German versions of the game. Apart from this, only the characters used in the game have been included.
Sprint 2 was the first arcade game released by Atari in 1976 that debuted the 8-bit arcade font that many gamers know and love today. And the Atari Legacy font wishes to carry the torch as it once did back then, especially with new unicodes and glyphs. You can tell it's a font based on the golden days of gaming because of the "E". The unique "E" may seem very familiar for those who played Atari games back in the arcades, and those today who played Atari 50: The Anniversary Collection! The "?" and "!" are even sourced from Atari's Quiz Show, also released in 1976!
This is a clone of Arcade LegacyRecreation of the pixel font from Technōs/Leland Interactive Media's "Double Dragon V: The Shadow Falls" (1994) on the SNES.
The same font is used on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, and the Atari Jaguar, but the SNES version is the most complete with punctuation characters.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
