Third iteration of Tangereen with a bit of Paradoxy Effect. This one is rather fancy, so probably best used as a Display font.

The center portions of these glyphs make me think of sliced oranges and moon phases. They could act as cabochon settings, as well! So you could use these shapes to make jewelry set with a birthstone, monogrammed pendants/insignia, and so on.

A highly abstract, mandala-like segmented display which turns bodies of text into primitive starfields, complete with constellations, planets, and space debris. As it turns out, there are quite a lot of ways to write, draw, and encode information with this! Check out the sample text views and try preparing some text of your own in the User Input field.

The name, and the background of the sample art, are inspired by some art/lore from a friend. <3

I might make more designs like this for generating different kinds of art/textures. If I do, I'll probably scramble the display pieces among the alphabet. I didn't with this one, and for certain kinds of text input, that might show.

Version 1.1: Improved and shrank the tokens so that they can fit into the corner of an unflipped tile.

This is a set of tiles that can be used to create mockups and pieces for the Piecepack board gaming system. Dice not included!

* * * CONTENTS * * *

26 tiles (UPPERCASE) - ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

12 token designs (lowercase) -abcdefghijkl

10 pawn designs (numbers) - 1234567890

Included are reverse sides as well as wildcard/Joker sides (normally not present in Piecepack). These are always the last two in each series.

Brick Basket in a format that's more useable for graphic artists. While the original was made for building new font designs, this one is made to be useful as a font in its own right.

I will update this one, along with the original, any time I have new ideas. Both designs have bricks that are unique to them, as well. This is due to glitches I encountered while cloning as well as the fact that BBRev2's designs are specifically for graphic art. BBRev2 also contains a few stock FS bricks just to expand the range of textures it can create.

Military and wargame related icons. The 4 stars are meant to represent a player number. Erase the stars to make pieces for Players 1, 2, and 3.

Got a request or idea? Let me know. Feel free to use these in any games you're creating!

A font inspired by graphic equalizers. This is made to be animating continuously, cycling through one glyph at a time, so that messages can slowly be displayed within a very small space. Useful for streamers and others who work in video and want something to show short messages.

Public transport & travel related icons. Most of these are designed to leave room above/below themselves for text while still fitting into a square canvas. So, they can more easily be used to create actual program icons, signs, etc.

This was my first icons font so it doesn't conform to the 10x10 standard I established later for fonts like Donjonikons...

A - Airplane

B - Bus

C - Cable Car

D - Dirigible

E - Escalator

F - "Phone" Sign

G - Gondola

H - Helicopter

I - "Parking" Sign

J - "Lost & Found" Sign

K - "Luggage Claim" Sign

L - Locomotive

M - Maglev/Monorail Train

P - APC/Armored Car

Q - Bus (front view)

Y - Bike/Scooter

Z - Zeppelin

- WORK IN PROGRESS -

A font for making hexagonal grids and maps.

You can make a map which is infinitely wide and up to 6 rows tall. This will increase to 26 rows tall once I figure out why the spacing breaks down after 6. Once this problem is solved, I'll begin adding setpieces and more tile variations!

13SEP2018: I never did figure out a way to stop the spacing from breaking down. No matter where I place the 7th row or how I alter the spacing, it's always out of place...

*

- INSTRUCTIONS -

Type starting with a or A, then b or B, up through fF, to build a column.

Once the map is as tall as you want it, repeat these letters to make the next column.

Use UPPER CASE to create land/floors and lower case to create water/walls.

"A" or "a" must be present in each sequence and each letter must be in its proper place and order for the map to generate properly. Making of irregular maps is possible, but it takes some cleverness to get them to look even. This problem seems to be insurmountable, sorry!

Use six spaces to create a void with the same width as a hex...

Using antialiasing broke the tile arrangements in my graphics software. You may be luckier, but I recommend having both antialiasing and kerning turned OFF.

Have fun!

Another brickswap of Marengi. This one will be programmed into actual marquee displays, some physical and some software-based. If only the glow of the LEDs could be simulated with bricks!

Original size: 11pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A 2x2 design which started with a "split" aesthetic and ended up with a "stenciled" one. I embraced the change and now all these glyphs are functional as stencils. They contain minimal stacking and no composites.

In some cases the inside is connected to the outside at only one point. If you decide to use this for stencilling, I recommend using a stout material for the stencil and storing it with care.

The name comes from one of the many, many old joke bands which I created.

Recommended: Use with kerning turned on!

Another experimental font for texturing work. This one uses only an 8x8 grid, but since it isn't pixel art, a much greater variety of patterns is possible. Every glyph in the font repeats as a seamless texture in both directions.

See also:Gremlin Skins (pixel version)

I designed this 16x16 pixel font to facilitate texturing and dithering for pixel artists. Not every piece of art software has tools designed for texturing/dithering, and loading lots of custom brushes for the purpose can slow one's software way down as well. This font was made to attempt to solve these problems. Now you can dither, shade, and texture by typing! Every glyph repeats as a seamless texture both horizontally and vertically.

The name comes from my emulator/game, "Virtua Gremlin". Although these patterns weren't in the game (it used 9x9 tiles, not 16x16), many of the patterns here are based on that earlier work. "Skins" is a reference to graphical skins, of course. :D

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

USAGE GUIDE

A-Z = textures

a-z = dithering/shading patterns

0-9 = scanlines

The rest is sort of a mishmash... I'll organize it better once I have enough glyphs to warrant a good classification system...

Have an idea for a pattern? Want to see a particular sprite or aesthetic included? Let me know :D

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Original size: 12pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Tip: View this in the Character Map so you can more easily grab and paste glyphs when designing!
