Recreation of "Normal Centipede" from CPFONTS.FON, included in Microsoft Arcade from 1993.
The original font seems to have been intended to be capital letters and numbers only, with what appears to be poorly-resized bitmaps from a different font in the rest of the character set. Some, especially the punctuation, were literally illegible. So I hope you'll forgive me that this isn't a 100% faithful recreation.
Recreation 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.

Recreation of the pixel font from Sega's "Gigas" (1986).
