Some time after I decided to unleash Pixelbabania VI Deluxe onto the world, I deemed it appropriate to also create a light version to go alongside it. Had a good bit of fun making sure things looked right with this font, which also explains why I decided to fix its sister font while I was at it.
Here it is, at last. And just in time for the start of a new season, wherever in the world you all are.
4/12/2023 : Fixed up a few more glyphs of Box Drawing to make them work proper with their fellow glyphs.

I took a look at the very first font I published and looking back at it now, I couldn't help but think I could have done better and gone much further with it. Having learned a few things along the way when I was working on the light version of Pixelbabania, I decided to invest some time into working on a much improved version of Pixelbabania VI, while once again following a self-imposed limitation. This time, I decided to go with 6x9 (with some exceptions) to allow a bit more wriggle room and to make characters with accents much nicer, and even decided to change up some of the characters to improve their look. Not only this, I decided I'd try and see if it was possible to add more characters from other sets and thus far, it had gone quite nicely.
After so much time on and off, now I share with you the fruits of my labor and love.
Note: I have done what I could to get N'ko and to a lesser extent Adlam to play nice; unfortunately I could not get the tone marks to actually just go above or below the characters properly, therefore they will take residence right next to the character, taking up another space. Apologies for any inconvenience caused to those who type in those languages.
04/12/23 : Fixed up a few more glyphs in Box Drawing to make them look and work proper with the others.
Strictly 8x16/8x8 monospaced arcade-style font inspired by Old Church Slavonic manuscripts and Cyrillic vyaz majuscules. Designed for all-lowercase body text with occasional all-caps headers, as in historical manuscripts- but works well with mixed caps.
500+ glyphs, including extensive support for accented Latin letters, world currency symbols, and custom Roman numerals, along with assorted dingbats and multiocular O scribal glyphs used in Old Church Slavonic in text referencing eyes.
Support for majuscule punctuation, more non-Latin scripts, and more extended Latin & dingbats possibly upcoming.
If you know any of the non-Latin scripts included, please let me know of any gaps/accuracy or legibility issues!
