***APRIL 2023 UPDATE***
A few more characters added and spacing of the "I" letters and their variants readjusted... Also, some characters redesigned... More to come...
An attempted recreaction of the Atari Games variation of the "Joystix", "Emulator" and "Emulogic" text fonts as used in-game and during tests from 1984 to 1998... Used in games such as Gauntlet, Xybots, Pit Fighter and Hard Drivin', among various others -- albeit with some custom deviations and extra characters NOT used in the actual text style itself... Also, upon further research, spacing between the actual letters vary by individual game (based on internal alpha tests)...

Recreation of the built-in font found in the old Thomson line of 8-bit computers (Thomson MO5, MO5E, MO5NR, MO6, T9000, TO7, TO7/70, TO8, TO8D, TO9, TO9+ and Olivetti Prodest PC128).
This recreation combines the character sets found in the various localised versions. A few accented characters have been added to make the set more complete, but note that there are no acute/grave/circumflex accent versions for uppercase letters.
Apart from that, only the characters present in the original font (that I could find through emulation) have been included.

Recreation of the pixel font from Gargoyle Games' "Tir Na Nog" (1984) on the ZX Spectrum.
Note on the Spectrum and C64 version, the font defined in the game includes uppercase letters (not used in the game), as well as special characters and punctuation. In the Amstrad CPC version, only the lowercase alphabet is present, and any other characters (numbers, punctuation, etc) are pulled from the standard Amstrad system font.
The same font was reused in the prequel to this game, "Dun Darach" (1985).
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Capcom's "1942" (1984). Note that in game there are two number variants used - a regular one with a right-hand shadow, and a bold one; this recreation uses the latter. Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font used in early UPL games: the alphanumeric characters were first introduced in "Nova 2001" (1983) and the punctuation/special characters were added starting with "Ninja Kid" (1984). It at first appears like a copy of Namco's "Xevious" (1982), but has enough variation to be considered a stand-alone font in its own right. The font was further used - with some minor change to the punctuation - in "Raiders5" (1985) and "Ninja Kid II" (1987).
Presenting Nintendo's Clu Clu Land (aka. Vs. Clu Clu Land/Welcome to the New Clu Clu Land), released in 1984 for the NES, FDS and Arcade and 1988 for the FDS. This font is similar to Donkey Kong Classics. This font is part of Nintendoid. and This game is a part of Animal crossing, which was titled (Clu Clu Land D, aka. Clu Clu Land Disk).

Fairly standard, but note the interesting details on "g", "j", and "2".
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Sega/Coreland's "SWAT" (1984).
Very similar to Sega's "Future Spy" (1984), but with some notable variations in punctuation, and the way some characters are broken up.
