Font used on the LINC terminal screens, inside LINC-Space, and for player-named saved games in the DOS version of Beneath A Steel Sky, (C) 1994 Revolution Software.
Oddities found within this font's design:
• The j is missing its tittle (corrected here)
• The stem of the k is 1 pixel shy of the full cap height (corrected here)
• There is an extra pixel width of space after the i, the lowercase L (l), the period (.), the colon (:), and the apostrophe ('), likely for increased legibility (retained here)
• The apostrophe (') is one pixel higher than the cap height (retained here)
There are also a few design differences between the glyphs for the player's saved games versus the font used for interacting with LINC (above):
• The saved game capital i (I) and number one (1) both have the same design, which is the same as the LINC lowercase L (l) above
• The saved game lowecase L (l) is actually 1 pixel taller than the cap height
• The saved game exclamation point (!) is 1 pixel shorter than the cap height
The original design oddities and the saved game variants are found in the More Latin section.

Clone of Beneath A Steel Sky. Inset for the main text font used in the DOS version of Beneath A Steel Sky, (C) 1994 Revolution Software.
While Damien Guard (DamienG) couldn't find the numerals 3 5 6 and 8 (see the comments section for his 2017 FontStruction "BeneathASteelSky"), I was able to find at least two instances where the number 3 was used; however, I couldn't find a 7. So, to complete the set of numerals, I'm using his designs for 5 6 7 and 8 (which fit the aesthetics of the other numbers). Thanks, Damien!

Alternate character set (to standard CBM) from Rolf Harris' Picture Builder. Given Rolf's incarceration for sex offences, I chose to name the font "Wobble Board" after the musical instrument he devised in 1959.
Lower case is pixeled, upper case is me experimenting with the blocks (first time I've used block-stacking). This character set didn't use punctuation, it was designed for building pictures character by character; I've preserved a couple of the graphic characters, but also imagined a few glyphs based on the thick lettering style. I like the look of these thick letters with proportional spacing so that's what we have.
The hash symbol (#) can be used to build a brick wall.
