This is used in Virtual Gremlin for instances when the Gremlins/'pets' speak. Since Gremlins are literal glitch creatures and not the best at communication (and since 5x4 is a very odd size), some letters are turned and others are split. This lends the font some use as a weak cipher.
Technically, Gremlin 5x4 is also a conlang. Every glyph has associated sounds which are unique to the Gremlins speaking them. I call this conlang "Glitch English". Perhaps, now that I have this font ready-made, I can set about making a dictionary. :^)
Original size: 6pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
Earliest version of Gremlin Cipher, a scrambled cipher. This version (V1) has no numerals. V2 had numerals and other symbols included and scrambled every glyph, but V2 is not possible to make in Fontstruct since only "space" can be used to create empty space.

An omnilingual cryptographic system which disguises itself as a scrambled substitution cipher. Glyphs are prearranged in groups of four and it is the differences between items within these groups which comprise the actual information. These "words" represent and describe any sound made by any method with any frequency content, and their "strings" (monolinear arrangements) describe the shape, structure and context.
The details of how to properly encode/decode these symbols will remain secret. This is designed in part to inspire others to invent their own systems of this kind. Think about how to do what I claim here to have done, carry it out, and you will have devised yourself something which is human-readable on its own yet as secure as a One-Time Pad.
Gemseeker texts feature in several video games of mine, although the system is only used to display jokes and Easter Egg messages. People know I'm on this site by now, so I can't give them all away on here, can I? ;)
Want to see a magic trick? This font quickly loses readability when it is shrunk or enlarged from its original size! It's like an anti-font, judging you for wanting to use it.
I think this makes excellent placeholder text at small sizes, though to the uninitiated it might just look like blurry Braille.
This is a clone of CelLCDThis is a font based on the "AIQ BKR" cipher, one of several invented by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa in his writings on the occult (specifically the Kaballah). This was originally a box cipher for Hebrew letters, based on the numerical value of certain letters.
This is not a true AIQ BKR. I have added missing English letters ('e' is just so useful!) and a disambiguous set of digits 0-9.
