A design made to have long legs. The mild optical illusion this font creates was a happy coincidence!
I changed the name to "Taller Tales" since it seems that many fonts called "Tall Tales" actually exist...
Original size: 40pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection, or use in combination with antialiasing)
87.10 degree slanted font for Italicized italic italic Ultra-Italic italic Italian italics. Thanks for making me design a whole family of fonts that hurt my eyes, Zuloph. :P
After I made RC Vertigo, Zu said he could still read it. I began to create increasingly slanted designs, and this one was finally the one he couldn't read.
No symbols/numerals for this one. I consider it to be machine-readable only at this point...
Bold variant of Ticketmeister.
Original size: 14.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
This is a clone of TicketmeisterA font made by request for a certain Augmented Reality Game.
It is a functional blueprint - not meant to be used as-is, but designed to be embellished. Color it in, put effects on it, or whatever else you want. In this way the font can remystify itself and achieve distinctive looks which require particular art techniques to reach.
Another experiment. I made a grid out of the pinwheel shapes, then started drawing on it. Not sure why the bugged glyph count... hope nothing goes wrong...
Try viewing at 2x Pixel size to see how it is intended to look!
Type one of `|\^[] then a letter to texture the background as well!
Type _ to create the blank pattern between letters.

Original size: 51pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Design Rules:
1. Alphabetic glyphs must fill the pinwheel grid space as much as possible.
2. The pinwheels must not touch any letter's perimeter line. Nor must they deviate from their formation, except when being deleted to make room for the perimeter lines.
3. 90-degree angles only.
Experimental cyberpunk robot mosaic thing.
It gives me a strong "system font" feeling and seems like something that might be included with the OS of some futuristic tech deck. If the Fairlight Excalibur from Shadowrun Returns had its own font, this could be it!

I doodled this intending to make a high-res pixel design that scaled down nicely. Unfortunately this does not work out. Designs such as these only look good at their original size (or multiples thereof) and they do not play well with antialiasing algorithms, nor can they be fixed by most vectorization methods. So, at most sizes the font becomes quite unattractive. Still, it was fun to draw.

Improved version:Celosia 2
Recreation of a design from 2011. This was used for the logo and certain menu text in my most treasured and popular video game, "Seven Candles", so it was designed to write only a few words - Seven, Candles, Save, Lines, etc.
This will eventually be used in the remake as well, once I get around to that...
This is a logotype, so it only has a few letters in it. No more glyphs are planned.
Based on ideas by zephram and Se7enty-Se7en, taking it one level deeper.
This is a clone of AmalgarmadaAnother mirror font! I made it in a square style so it would mirror more neatly. This also had the consequence of giving the font a "runic" look.
Looks best at Pixel sizes, but works with any size!
The name "Mirror Mang" comes from two things: the Captain Beefheart And The Magic Band song "Mirror Man" as well as the way my friends from New Zealand say "man".

Cybernaut turned inside-out! The result is mostly illegible except when used at multiples of the original size and with antialiasing turned off. At the original size (2x Pixel size), it's capable of some magnificent cybernetic aesthetics.

This is a clone of CybernautBalloon/block style pixel text.
Original size: 18.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
Possibly the last entry in the Derpberd family: A font which looks like the original Derpberd at pixel size, gets fuzzy at larger sizes, and finally reveals its racing-esque checkerboard pattern once you've enlarged it enough.
Original size: 5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
This is a clone of DerpberdA tear-off ticket design. I went for the slightly gaudy look which is associated with carnivals and arcades.
While making this I also got the idea for a font which looks like a 35mm reel with little scenes on each segment...
Original size: 14.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
From the vault of unpublished doodles, a permutation of earlier ideas.

Pixelated demake of Nirvanite Fossil. It introduces more size variation than its predecessors, and proves even harder to read. The size variation was necessary to prevent these sprites from being too large and to make them more unique from the glyphs in Nirvanite Fossil.
Original size: 25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

This is designed on 7x7 black boxes which act as superpixels. This ensures that inline and outline components are congruent.

Verbossus in sans-serif!
This is a clone of VerbossusA variant of "GP Cannon" which attempts to take advantage of antialiasing methods which are used on it. The "skeleton" of each letter hides under the scanlines, causing effects ranging from motion blur to a wet-marker look. It works as both a pixel font and a high-resolution font!
It gives me strong "Atari ST" vibes...
