I hail from Kerala, Malayalam is the native language of my state.
Through this project I wanted to design,
something which is different from its complex rounded forms!
That’s how I came up with Videshi. It means foreigner in Malayalam,
the form of the font is more geometric and structured compared to
the existing Malayalam fonts which are more of round shape.
Hence it is a foreigner to the existing Malayalam fonts.
Presenting... Ari-W9500 - a complete pixel font family with multiple weights & styles.
This is basically pixelated Arial. Nothing interesting, really. The font is heavily inspired by the pixelated font used in Microsoft's Windows 95. The project was originally meant to be an improved and revamped version of the popular W95FA pixel font.
With more than 1600 glyphs, the font can support a wide range of languages (primarily supports Latin, Greek and Cyrillic).
The alternative glyphs of all the font styles included in the family are stored in the "Braille Patterns" Unicode block.
=================================
Extra context:
For those who are wondering, Ari-W9500 began under construction BEFORE Roguewas even planned. After done publishing Rogue, I just wanted to finish this project up and move on.
=================================
The entirety of the Ari-W9500 font family (6 styles):
• Ari-W9500 Display (Extra-bold)
=================================
Future plans:
Looking forward to adding Hebrew support soon.
Due to technical difficulties, I WILL NOT be making italic versions for the styles.
=================================
If you see any glyphs in the font that's incorrectly designed, please tell me by commenting.
Feel free to clone the project and add additional language support (e.g.: CJK, Thai, Arabic, Devanagari) as you wish.
=================================
Thanks for enjoying this moment with me.
