I made a blocky, industrial sort of style, then added art deco-style line width variation. Then, a couple of tech lines here, a couple of details there, and SHAZAM! We get these 1950's-era raygun-toting space race zippity zap letters. It's a font Marvin the Martian might use...

Fictional aliens' attempt at the Latin alphabet. The sticks and stems are repelled from the open parts of the letters. The result looks sort of like a hybrid of Latin and Korean!

Design rules:
- 11x11 grid.
- Square bricks only.
- 90° angles only.
- 100% constant height.
- Forms must fill grid space as much as possible without becoming unrecognizeable.
Another 5x5 pixel design. This one splits one line or intersection per letter for most letters, leading to a tech/sci-fi look.
Only the comma is allowed to go below the line; all other glyphs fit onto the 5x5 grid. Because this font is quantized to the grid, diacritic accents won't be possible. Feel free to move the comma above the line to suit your global matrix.

A minimalist Gemscript (or a corrupted one, depending on who you ask).
It has no relation to Pigpen Cipher, although a few glyphs do look like they're from that cipher. Feel free to use this fact to throw amateur cryptographers off for amusement.

The original logotype font used for Endless Sea of Stars/ESOS, a massive simulation. Designed by me circa 2010.
Since this uses only right angles and has no lone pixels except those in negative space, it's pixel perfect at any size. That's why it's in two collections.

Font used for rAIn, shipboard AI of the RGS-1 Rainbow Loop. This will also likely be used in FLAK materials, as well.
By request, a polygonal font with a slightly militaristic feeling.
The truncated polygonal perimeter of most glyphs is somewhat inspired by the lettering on World War I planes, tanks, and ships. These forms of lettering tended to have more square aspect ratios. I changed that to give this font more personality and to condense it so more text could fit on a line.
In terms of what modern military setting this might fit into, it looks very Air Force- or Navy-esque to my eye. Check out contemporary video games and recruitment materials relating to those two branches and you'll see what I mean.
Last weekend I was feeling a little nostalgic and decided to review my first ❤️ FontStruction (I made it in 2009, over 14 years ago). Time and fonts have passed since then, but I still like the overall look of it, so I decided to give it a facelift: I changed some important things about the diagonals and the building of quite a few glyphs, as well as restructuring the overall design, homogenizing it a little (taking into account my inexperience then), adding kerning... Now I present it to you again, hoping that you like its current appearance and that someone sees in it the value that I see. Thanks in advance.
This is a clone of zamzibar eYe/FSJust a futuristic sans serif font I did.
This is a clone of TRON the ThirdA combinatorial conlang whose symbols find many uses.
This is the written language of early Azwelke people from Planet Ashr in my game Endless Sea of Stars. The symbols are called "Moon Runes" (both pejoratively and not), and each represents a cluster of phonemes. The language is similar to Katakana Japanese in that written words are sounded out. Proper nouns cannot be written in Moon Runes, and so such nouns rely on Old Azwelkeland Script to be committed to record.
The Wolves of Euphedora still use these symbols as part of their own hidden language, here called "RZ". Since this cipher invents no new characters, these Moon Runes can be used to write RZ as well.
These symbols are also still used in modern Ashrian astrology. Their designations below reflect this fact.

Another Gemscript and another IVO series entry. :D
Alter version of Game of Strife. These two designs are for a project that is in progress. They're made to animate and swap between each other so that the text they print seems "untrustworthy".
(If you guessed that this text was being printed by an evil AI, you've won! Here's your free Nothing.)
This is a clone of Game of StrifeA stencil design in which diagonal cuts are used to imply angles and curves. It does not quite obey the rules of a segmented display, but it tries its best!
This is inspired by some text I put on the side of the Sheepslayer Mk.2, a flying dragon car piloted by Lyll "Hatch" Soretti in my game Seven Candles.
Version 1.1: KRX were modified to be more readable at small size, MQW14'"@ were edited for style, Basic Latin band completed, More Latin band underway.
*
A font made by request for an author of custom Warhammer 40K modules.
Version 1.1: All 144 glyphs accounted for, changed to monospaced.
*
A style of writing based on Orcish architecture, culture, and mythology. The main design rule was "no diagonals".
The name is inspired by Beogh, god of orcs in the Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup video game.

Nebular is a space-age, all-caps sans serif typeface. It is bold; rounded yet angular. Great for headlines, quotes, and posters. It brings a fun bit of futuristic sci-fi to any design!
