Recreation of the pixel font from Konami's "Jail Break" (1986). Fairly standard, with the classic Konami "Y", and a few interesting details in on the "J", "K", "W" and "Z". Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Sega/Coreland's "SWAT" (1984).

Recreation of the large pixel font from Data East's "Shackled" (aka "Breywood", 1986).
This font is used primarily for the highscore screen. While each character uses four 8×8 tiles, in game the width of the characters is tweaked so that they're only 12 pixels wide (except for the three letters used for the highscore name itself, which use the full 16 pixel width), which is what this recreation uses.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Presenting Ascii's Penguin-kun Wars (aka. Penguin Wars), released both consoles in 1985: NES and Arcade. This font is similar to Penguin Wars.
This is a clone of Penguin WarsRecreation of the pixel font from Sega's "Hopper Robo" (1983).
The font does include a second set of numerals that match the look of the letters, but that set is incomplete (missing the "6" and "7"). For this reason, decided to go with the more distinctive "segmented" numerals which are used in the game itself.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
