This is a clone of Lightning Swords (Large)A special Pac-Man version of the familiar Arcade Legacy font on FontStruct, given the title: PAC-MAN LEGACY! (Yes, it's even in stylized all-caps)
What's changed, you might ask? The exclamation mark (!), now based on the "!" as seen in both Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man when you start up a game, and begin another maze after eating all of the Pac-Dots. If it's one thing that matters most, it's detail.
Sprint 2 was the first arcade game released by Atari in 1976 that debuted the 8-bit arcade font that many gamers know and love today. And the Atari Legacy font wishes to carry the torch as it once did back then, especially with new unicodes and glyphs. You can tell it's a font based on the golden days of gaming because of the "E". The unique "E" may seem very familiar for those who played Atari games back in the arcades, and those today who played Atari 50: The Anniversary Collection! The "?" and "!" are even sourced from Atari's Quiz Show, also released in 1976!

Feeling inspired after reading Arcade Game Typography: The Art of Pixel Type by Toshi Omagari, I set out to make my own 8x8 pixel font. I worked with a similar approach to the one I used in the larger grid font offstruct rgb.
First started in Adobe Illustrator, each character consists of three iterations of the same 6x6 pixel letter: in RGB Red, Green and Blue. These were layered, offset by one pixel diagonally, filling the 8x8 box. To achieve additive blending, I applied the "Lighten" transparancy setting. Combinations of overlaying these three primary RGB colours result in the secondary RGB coloured pixels Yellow, Cyan and Magenta. In the additive mixing of coloured lights, the equal blending of all three primary colours results in White. All pixels were then entered manually into the fontstructor and black pixels were added for display purposes.

This is a clone of Purirula³ TextI had a sheet of Shinobi's font, nobody had done it yet, now it's here! All characters are what appeared on the sheet - no custom glyphs (yet). I may get around to adding a question mark. Get your black ninja gear on and download now.
This typeface is inspired by retro arcade games. I wanted a blocky style to represent how the old typefaces looked like. One typeface which inspired this one is one Atari made for their video game Sprint 2. I used a 12x12 grid to help me create the blocky look to it. I used a 3x3 grid in the corners empty to keep a consistent look to each letter.
Recreation of the large pixel font from Capcom's "Final Fight" (1989).
This font is used in the intro cinematic. In the original, the double quotes are awkwardly split over two tiles. This recreation combines them into a single character. The recreation also corrects the missing antialiasing in the "3". However, it retains the original minus/dash (as seen in the character bio sheets), which is far too high.
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support. As the font relies on antialiasing, I did not create a separate monochromatic version of the font.

The classic pixel font from the early days of video games - Taito's "Space Invaders" (1978). An early version of this font was already used in games like Taito's "Circus" (1977) and Exidy's "Robot Bowl" (1977). This extended edition also includes additional characters found in later games, like Taito's "Lunar Rescue" (1979), "Space Chaser" (1979), Exidy's "Crash" (1979) and SNK's "Ozma Wars" (1979).

Recreation of the large pixel font from Capcom's "Street Fighter II: The World Warrior" (1991).
This font is used for the score, "You win"/"You lose"/"Bonus stage"/"Start !" messages, and the after-fight taunts.
Note that in the game, only the uppercase characters are used. In the ROM, the lowercase characters are vertically misaligned - this recreation fixes this, setting them to the same baseline as the uppercase. Apart from this change, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Some of the characters (such as the "M") are one pixel wider than the overall monospaced character width of 12 pixels, so their drop shadow overlaps/falls behind the following character, which is game-accurate.
