This is an enhanced version of the retro font you see on old games. Still WIP. The squares are just placeholders and will be removed shortly. I hope to make this have more characters than any other fonts in the future (this might take a while). This font can be used in retro-style games, computer graphics, or anything else you can imagine. This font is pixelated, meaning it is lightweight and easy to port to many devices.
This is a clone of Ndless Default Fonthttps://usermanual.wiki/Document/Guide20to20the20Rlyehian20Font.758052807.pdf
this is a PDF and a guide to the language. This is a language and yes these symbols mean something. I created it because I was not able to find a free font like this online. This language comes from the R’lyehian Alphabet. The goal was to design an alphabet that matched H.P. Lovecraft’s description of the ancient language. To do that it needed
1. To hang down from “horizontal word lines”
2. To be hieroglyphic in nature
3. Not be like Naacal (i.e. ancient Mayan) \
4. Not be like the hieroglyphics of Easter Island (Rongorongo)
The next most obvious hieroglyphics after that would be Egyptian, so putting all that together translated to something that combined a Devanagari style with symbols that could have eventually led to the Egyptian hieroglyphics.
THE LOWERCASE AND UPPERCASE
This is a set of letters for Upper Case versions of each letter. The idea is that the language and concepts of the language are non-Euclidean and non-linear, so there is nothing stopping someone from writing it to change directions or change the orientation of the letters. Long story short, these are either backward, at right angles, or upside-down, and in some cases tweaked so they seem fairly different from the basic alphabet. Using capital letters gives variety to the writing, but also makes it harder to read.
(I just inverted most of the letters and the lower case and uppercase are switched so just beware that if you type without caps lock you will be typing in uppercase)
If you have any questions consult the PDF and if it's not in the PDF then I don't know I will be adding an image of what symbols correspond to the keys on the keyboard (if there's already an image then ignore the last bit)
I'm not Uber Goober games btw I have no connection to them and they are responsible for the language.
The first version was made in less than 20 mins!
Currently has 16176 glyphs and counting!
Latest Update: Edited φ and ⱷ to match with the canIPA extensions and edited з and ԑ to match with Cyrillic and -Supplement.
Pro tip for Myanmar: Use ေ and ႄ before a consonant to get the optimal vowel placement.
Pro tip for Devanagari: Use ि and ॎ before a consonant to get the optimal vowel placement.
Presenting... Ari-W9500 - a complete pixel font family with multiple weights & styles.
This is basically pixelated Arial. Nothing interesting, really. The font is heavily inspired by the pixelated font used in Microsoft's Windows 95. The project was originally meant to be an improved and revamped version of the popular W95FA pixel font.
With more than 1600 glyphs, the font can support a wide range of languages (primarily supports Latin, Greek and Cyrillic).
The alternative glyphs of all the font styles included in the family are stored in the "Braille Patterns" Unicode block.
=================================
Extra context:
For those who are wondering, Ari-W9500 began under construction BEFORE Roguewas even planned. After done publishing Rogue, I just wanted to finish this project up and move on.
=================================
The entirety of the Ari-W9500 font family (6 styles):
• Ari-W9500 Display (Extra-bold)
=================================
Future plans:
Looking forward to adding Hebrew support soon.
Due to technical difficulties, I WILL NOT be making italic versions for the styles.
=================================
If you see any glyphs in the font that's incorrectly designed, please tell me by commenting.
Feel free to clone the project and add additional language support (e.g.: CJK, Thai, Arabic, Devanagari) as you wish.
=================================
Honorable mention FOR VIETNAMESE USERS: (PLEASE READ)
For the Vietnamese users who try to type Vietnamese using this font, I apologize for compromising the diacritical marks to the point of illegible (especially in the display/extra-bold weight). I get the fact that stacked Vietnamese diacritical marks are supposed to be recognizable and easy to read. I mean, I myself am a local Vietnamese and know how it works. But, I have to except the fact thatpixel fonts have limitations. Trying to keep the Em Height properly and NOT expanding it is hard, keeping the stacked diacritical marks' height in that small amount of horizontal space is even harder. To make the job even possible, legibility MUST be sacrificed. Otherwise, the Em Height would be ruined and the horizontal space of the font would look unreasonably large. I hope you locals do not get too mad over this. I am just trying to make it as good and legible as possible.
=================================
Thanks for enjoying this moment with me.
The condensed style of Ari-W9500.
