I remember when I made this font back between November and December 2012. It reminded me of an 80's video game.
The capital alphabet, numbers, and some symbols come from Jeopardy! 25th Anniversary Edition for the NES, and the rest I made up myself.
I hope you could use it in your own 8-bit-like games!

Some time after having published Pixelbabania VI, then had a look at another font called Futura and saw its light version, I thought to myself, what if I made a lighter version of this font?
I then decided to hunker down and get to work on making this, feeling the flow of creation pour out.
I do hope you all enjoy downloading and using this as much as I enjoyed making and sharing with all.
After having finished creating Pixelbabania VI, I thought to myself, why not make a version of this font, but with the height restricion removed for those who don't like having foreign characters squished up?
Even added Japanese Katana and Hiragana characters into the mix.
27/4/22 - Came across two glyphs that needed a bit of fixing, the registered sign, which was a width over, and Single Low-9 Quotation Mark, which needed to be moved a pixel down.
This is a clone of Pixelbabania VISomething I had been on and and off again working on for some time, making sure everything looked alright before I so much as thought about placing this creation onto here for all to witness.
Decided to impose a limit on myself when creating this font, such as width and height after being inspired by seeing translations of old video games. I had to get a bit creative with some of the characters and how I could make them look good without butchering them too badly.
I do hope you enjoy using this font as much as I enjoyed making it.
7/4/22 - Decided to add a VI to the name of the font, after the width I limited myself to using.
27/4/22 - Came across two glyphs that needed a bit of fixing, the registered sign, which was a width over, and Single Low-9 Quotation Mark, which needed to be moved a pixel down.
No Konami code is required for the usage of this font. You may not get 30 lives with this font inspired by Konami's Contra series, but this will be a font you'll enjoy using, retro gaming fans! Enjoy!
This is a clone of Super Mario Bros. NESWhat a horrible night to have a font!
This font adds upon the font "Castlevania 2" by Patrick Lauke. I am a coder, and simply can't use fonts without their having all the necessary symbols. I did this very quickly, and it may be inaccurate or imbalanced so feel free to take it and remix it yourself!
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 FontRecreation of the pixel font used in the Sinclair ZX80 (1980). Note that some of the block element characters don't have a modern unicode equivalent, and have therefore been remapped (with the medium shade lower half block at U+2581 and the medium shade upper half block at U+2594). Only the characters present in the computer's character set have been included.
This is a clone of ZX SpectrumRecreation 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!
