The name of my font is Galagulas, based on the Namco 80's arcade game Galaga. We had to create an bitmap font for class and this was my design.

This Fontstruction was produced after plugging in the Atari 2600 the other night and falling in love all over again with the minimalist simplicity of the game Breakout.
A little Jobs/Wozniak drama from the development story of the game Breakout:
"Breakout, a discrete logic (non-microprocessor) game, was conceptualized by Nolan Bushnell and Steve Bristow, after the latter had "rejoined" Atari after the merge of Atari subsidiary Kee Games.
"Al Alcorn was assigned as the project manager, and began development with Cyan Engineering in 1975. The same year, Alcorn assigned Steve Jobs to design a prototype. Jobs was offered USD$750, with an extra $100 each time a chip was eliminated from the prospected design. Jobs promised to complete a prototype within four days. Jobs noticed his friend Steve Wozniak—employee of Hewlett-Packard—was capable of producing designs with a small number of chips, and invited him to work on the hardware design with the prospect of splitting the $750 wage.
"The original deadline was met after Wozniak didn't sleep for four days straight. In the end 50 chips were removed from Jobs' original design. This equated to a $5000 USD bonus, which Jobs kept secret from Wozniak, instead only paying him $375."

A Recreation of the font used by Sega's System-16 Arcade Hardware.
This is adapted from Enduro Racer specifically, as opposed to Fantasy Zone, Space Harrier or so on - the only difference is some specialty glyphs like the 'Km/h'.

The font used by Konami's MSX Classic, 'Nemesis 3: The Eve of Destruction', adapted to TrueType. The Comma glyph was added by me.
Thanks to Seahawk 0027 for giving me a reference sheet with just about all the glyphs i needed, plus having a full playthrough of the game on youtube for those that weren't on the sheet.

I was searching the Fontstruct gallery, but couldn't find any Space Invader fonts. I wondered why there weren't any, and then decided to make one myself! Criticism is appreciated.

My first video-game inspired font, this comes from a trio of arcade games produced by Taito: Puchi Charat, Cleopatra Fortune, and Bust-A-Move 2.
A couple notes about this font:
(1) All the characters in this font are designed to fit into an 8x16 template; (2) The form of the capital Q is accruate to the games,but has been slightly stretched vertically to give the letter more uniformity amongs the other capitals; (3) The accented characters are completely improvised, and do not appear in any of the games; (4) The only currency symbols included are the dollar and yen signs.

Use it to show your favorite fighting moves!
capital letters work. lowercase q,w,e,a,s,d,z,x,c, are left-up,up,right-up,left,down,right,left-down,down and right-down respectively. Might create a low/med/high punch/kick button in an ADV fightingchamp if ppl show interest.
