This type face was originally inspired by the title of horizon zero dawn, I have a love of Sci-fi and wanted to bring something bold with some movement built directly in. I veiw this working well being writen in an eastern style straight up and down, but also large and spread out.
DAN NIET — Futuristic rounded sans
═══════════════════════════════════
This is a recreation of Svetoslav Simov's Dan typeface that was published by Fontfabric back in 2010.
A while ago I came across some image that used this cool futuristic geometric sans. And without first doing proper research I started to FontStruct the lettering seen in the image. Once those were completed I didn't really had a good vision on where to lead the rest of the letter inventions, so I went looking online to find something similar that perhaps could get me inspired to complete it after all.
Scouring the web for a while I stumbled upon some sample images for a typeface called DAN by Svetoslav Simov. And it was unmistakably the font seen in the initial image that I used for the first couple of letters.
Now, I could've abandoned the project at this stage and take my loss, but I felt that the work that already had been done up to this point would be a sad waste of something that was actually kind of fun to make. So for this reason I decided to go ahead and continue the project, and instead this time the focus shifted towards recreating the original DAN typeface.
I included a number of small changed to certain letterforms to suite my personal preference better, but it very much remains Svetoslav's work.
Because the original DAN typeface is a commercial product this recreation won't be made available for downloading. It was strictly made for the fun of it, with no intent to redistribute. It was published solely as a showcase of the FontStruct editor's capabilities.
I dubbed the project DAN NIET which is Dutch forTHEN DON'T.
This sort of as a wordplay to the original's name and it's off-limit legally restricted status, hence the inclusion ofDON'T.
— It still remains a WIP..

F.F.M. (ANGEL DUST) — Futurist constructivism style lettering
═══════════════════════════════════
Digitization of a typeface for one of my all-time favorite record labels, the German (Frankfurt) based "Planet Core Productions". The typeface was seen on many of their vinyls and cds as well as various other stuff. It originated back in 1992 and was custom made by Paul Nicholson for Planet Core Productions.
This is the ANGEL DUST style variation for F.F.M. and this version features an entirely different font, but sourced from that same record label.
The main purpose for the digital recreation of the label's typefaces is to supplement in the creation of Planet Core Productions related literary scribings. The typefaces are the property of Planet Core Productions and were originally designed by P. Nicholson.

FAKOS VARYTITAS - Futuristic Sci-Fi stencil design
═════════════════════════
A Stencil letter with a rather unorthodox form.
The main concept is that of the Sci-Fi / Tech aesthetic. But the asymmetrics in its geometry, various custom build curves and incisions somewhat tune down the mechanical geometric tone of the letterforms, and introducing a slight more humanized touch to its rhythm. These non-traditional attributes making this more of a novel stencil typeface with a strong personality.
The typeface was inspired by space age tech. Its a display style font that is perfect for when your project has to have that typical techy or futuristic aesthetic look. Its best used at large size, but it does work in smaller size format as well.
The font includes:
• uppercase, lowercase & numerals
• accented latin
•diactritics
• symbols & punctuation marks
• ligatures
• some glyph alternatives
• ornamental decorative elements
All "lingual" characters are functional stencils, the only exceptions that aren't stenciled are the ornamental decorative symbols and dingbats.
Cheers

───── 「 SUMMARY 」
This is yet another deep dive into the very small and tiny quantum realm of FontStruct's small grid and light-weight stokes.
Unlike some of my previous endeavours into this dark corner of the FS-editor, which could have dizzying complexity in forms, this project for once didn't stress the sh....*t out of me by stretching the limits for my capabilities beyond what is still comfortable this time. Nor did it drain every last frigging bit of my knowledge or clever creative insight to pull it off.
On the contrary,
For once it remained largely a pretty straight forward and easy project in terms of forms and geometry. The absence for most of the 'bar-raising' features such as diagonal forms, rounded, transitions or stroke modulation made this 'FontStruction' that much more easy.
And when metaphorically breaking it down to the bare naked form and necessities, this design mainly consist of FS's (default)-brick set, resized modifications of those, combined with a set of stacked composites.
There a still a number of things I'd rather seen differently, and will see later attempts at making improvement, but taken in a broad perspective most of the included material so far look pretty fine to me already. And to point out one of the things that is still bugging actually are the 'accented' letters.
Some glyphs have odd values for their 'character'-width, and this makes it impossible to achieve 'grid to em-square'-bounding box allignement in FS's editor. So accents in these asymmetrical values look slightly ofset.
― "Changing character widths to nearest even value is simply far too destructive to the stylish characteristics of the fonts appearance"
───── 「 ABOUT THE FONT 」
In the end it became a pretty cool looking light-weight geometric modernist sans-serif style that at the same time has strong hints of Art-Deco-style lettering as well.
And apart from the minor things it fell short with, I think there is a lot about its overall character-set design and forms that is looking pretty darn rad actually if you ask me.
Content-wise the font is a single case design in a 'all-caps' or Majuscule style. The (Lc)-string was kept empty for deliberately for the technical reason of preserving all the (default)-blank metrics data for any further design updates.

SJABL00N - A futuristic looking display stencil
It is far from perfect, and especially the symbols and punctuation marks could here and there be better.
I think this was initially inspired by the likes of Wim Crouwel and similar graphic designers.
I hope you like it
This is a cloneALIEN WORMHOLE (BOLD) - Monolinear Sci-Fi-inspired 'worm' typeface.
═════════════════════════════════════
This is a 'Bold' style version to the "ALIEN WORMHOLE" type family.
This version has a ton of extra character compared to the 'Light' version.
For now only the two 'Basic Latin' sets, some symbols and a small number of puctuation marks match. And it remains to be seen if I can translate back to the Light version all those extra's that were put into this Bold version.
I mentioned 'type family' earlier, but in reality there isn't a whole lot of family just yet. Since the two for now hardly correlate truly.

ALIEN WORMHOLE - Monolinear Sci-Fi-inspired 'worm' typeface.
═════════════════════════════════════
[Historic snapshot:]
Most well known worm-type design probably is NASA's retired 'worm' logo (used from 1975 till 1992).
A sophisticated modernist rendering of the letters (N-A-S-A), done in a bold style letterform.
That being said, I should mention that this FontStruction wasn't "inspired by" or "based on" the original NASA logo though.
═════════════════════════════════════
[About this font:]
Small grid attempt at making sort of a experimental futuristic 'worm'-type design.
The letterforms for the most part are build from simplified basic geometry (rectangles/circular) except for a small number of symbols and punctuation that have diagonals.
It's experimental appearance is defined by the strikingly quirky counters that are awkwardly jutting out of the stems. To further boost it's awkwardness the letterforms have irregular width.
There is a full set of uppercase and partial lowercase glyph alternatives located in "Half Width Full Width" Unicode block to add slight stylistic variations.
I hope you like it,

Edit: Good news! I cancelled to make this font in fontstruct because im going to transfer it to Inkscape (to design glyphs) and Fontforge (to copy paste the glyphs here from Inkscape for metrics, kerning, and font data stuff) so I don't have to rely on internet connection anymore. I even want to make lots of varieties of this font from sharp corners to gear looking corners to a bit of shifted glyph chaos.
I think I can let you use this font now.
I published this because I just want to know what would happen if I published a fontstruct. It was initially undownloadable.
Here's a preview of my first font I made in fontstruct. I initially made this font in Geometry Dash level editor (yeah, you've read it right) and left unfinished and I decided to reconstruct the font here in fontstruct.
Fontstruct is really good font creating website (I wish there was offline app/software version of fontstruct). I've encountered an annoying jumbled brick bug, but fortunately I've manage to fix the bug, by replacing "my bricks" with the correct bricks from below (don't know how to explain).
This is a cloneThis font was inspired by the Japanese post-apocalyptic cyberpunk animation, Akira (1988). The convoluted story is set in a dystopian future, in a large megacity: Neo-Tokyo.
Unfortunately, I could not finish the Katakana characters, but the Latin alphabet was designed to reflect the style of the Japanese letters.
SbB Directorate is my typographic ode to science fiction bureaucracy. Directorate is named for the government in the TV “classic” Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. From the Alliance in Firefly to the Federation in Star Trek, the bureaucratic government is a theme through science fiction, and I always imagined they’d have a typeface like this…
