This font was inspired by Johannes Gutenberg’s Black Letter, and the iconic 8 bit font. I wanted to make a font that would be found in an old arcade or some odd Nintendo Gameboy role playing game.
The challenge of making this font was trying to make it simple like the original 8 bit font but still have it be ornate like the Black Letter. I believe that I met the challenge and I was also able to make a lower case set which adds more readability to the big blocky upper case. While it became more readable it is still more of a display font.

SUPER MA(RE-)O BROS.
A bitmap typeface family that recaps the classic fonts that were used for 1985 Nintendo Entertainment System game "Super Mario Bros."
-- It's a large piece that covers a bit of everything. And two seporate typefaces will be published the following days to accompany this one seemlessly.
both more less finished as well, but changes were made in this one that requires the other two to be fixed again in order to seemlessly work together before getting published, So stay tuned!
About this fist part:
It combines not just the two (title screen and ingame regular text)fonts used for this game, but also includes dingbats related to the game, and combines it all into one single typeface!
The sample will only display correctly at exact pixel size or double the value of this due to dither gradients that otherwise not show as a solid surfaces.
Basic and Extended Latin - letters seen at title screen
Superscripts and Subscripts - regular text font (only partial alphabet, as according to the unicode standard for this block)
Miscellaneous Symbols - miscellaneous dingbats related to the game such as emoji's and blocks to make seemless ornamental features like seen ingame
Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms - regular text font but with full suport for both uppercase & lowercase, as well as numerals and basic punctuation.
Enjoy!

A pixel rendition of Bolton Sans by designer Paul Lloyd. For a game concept of mine.
This is a redone version, as the original had issues that I couldn't seem to fix. But hey, this time it has more characters!
If you want to use this commercially, I guess I'd suggest getting permission from both of us?
Recreation of the pixel font used in the Sinclair ZX Spectrum (1982). Note the block element characters, set to their equivalent unicode points (U+2596 through to U+259F). Only the characters present in the computer's character set have been included.
A faithful, authentic, all-caps, nostalgic 8-bit font based on 1st-party Nintendo Entertainment System games, such as Duck Hunt, Tetris, Dr. Mario, Clu Clu Land, Pinball, Gyromite, Baseball, Urban Champion, and of course, as the name says in the font, Super Mario Bros.!
Featuring a grand total of 1085 glyphs! If we do glyph number translation, 1085 translates to October 1985, back when the Nintendo Entertainment System first launched in North America!
Now you're typing with power!

Temple of Apshai was the first game published by Epyx, back in 1979 when they were called Automated Simulations. A trilogy of Apshai games came out on Commodore 64 in 1985 and this font is taken from that. Now you can mix 8-bit with RPG.
I found a font rip from "Footballer of the Year" and the upper case letters were identical to Gauntlet, so I took the lower case ones and added them. Have called it "Gauntlet Potion" as "Gauntlet Deeper Dungeons" was too long. I don't really care for the lower case letters that much... it's here if anyone wants it for variety.
This is a clone of GauntletPresenting Carolco Pictures, Carolco and Pack-In-Video's Rambo, released in 1987 (or 1985 and 1988). This font is similar to Predator (NES). This font based in movies, which was completely moved to the Rambo Series. This is similar to Nintendoid font, which was created by Patrick H. Lauke, of the particular.: the lowercase, custom numbers and the sexy ampersand are worth pointing out here. And Rambo does not have japanese fonts so; this font is similar to Predator (NES) (Complete).
This is a clone of Predator NESPresenting Capcom's Makai Island (aka. Higemaru Makaijima), released in 1987. This font is a stenciled version of Bionic Commando (Arcade), created by Patrick H. Lauke and The Real Mighty Guru, and this game was released for the NES, as a prototype. This font is similar to Bionic Commando.
This is a clone of Bionic CommandoRecreation of the pixel font from Codemasters' "Striker in the Crypts of Trogan" (aka "Stryker in the Crypts of Trogan", 1992) on the Amstrad CPC.
This font is also used for the credits on the ZX Spectrum version, but otherwise a fatter version is used anywhere else in the game.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Ever seen the Undertale/Deltarune font in languages like Russian, Greek, Polish, Vietnamese ... ?
