Recreation of the small pixel font from the japanese release of Climax Entertainment/Sonic! Software Planning's "Shining Force" (1992) on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
Compared to the european/north american release, the alphanumeric and punctuation characters are all shifted by one pixel to the left, and one pixel down. The "U" is also different, and the font lacks a lowercase.
This font includes a full set of hiragana and katakana characters. In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This is a clone of Shining Force (Small)Recreation of the main pixel font from Jaleco's "Rival Turf!" (aka "Rushing Beat", 1992) on the SNES.
This font is used for the main menu, intro/outro cinematics, and end credits.
The font includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters. A few of the katakana characters were missing in the game's tile set, so I've attempted to include custom characters in a similar style. In the tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned in a line above their respective character. In this recreation, characters that use them are pre-combined into a single glyph.
With the exception of the few additional katakana glyphs, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Nintendo's "Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode" (1988) on the NES, including a smattering of katakana and hiragana characters. Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Konami's "Wai Wai World" (1988) on the Nintendo Famicom.
The original was only released in Japan, and contains a complete set of katakana, with a handful of latin characters (used mostly on the start screen). This recreation includes additional characters to complete the set of uppercase latin characters.
In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten for the katakana are separate tiles, and positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Apart from these changes, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Compile/Irem's "The Guardian Legend" (aka "Guardic Gaiden", 1988) on the Nintendo Famicom / NES. It combines the characters from the North American/European release and the original Japanese one.
This font includes a full set of hiragana and katakana characters. In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Similarly, in the password entry screen the game includes various characters with an umlaut/diaeresis, which are rendered as a separate tile in the preceding line. In this recreation, these have also been pre-combined. The game itself also uses some non-standard combinations (such as a "k" with an umlaut) - these have not been included, as they don't map to any standard unicode character. Lastly, to avoid confusion, the numeral "0" in the password entry screen uses a slash. This has been mapped to the "Latin Capital Letter O with Stroke" character (U+00D8).
Beyond this, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of an unused (?) pixel font found in the ROM for Konami's "Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance" (2002) and "Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow" (2003) on the Nintendo Game Boy Advance.
This font includes a full set of katakana characters. In the tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, likely positioned after the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single (16px wide) glyph.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the main pixel font from Nintendo's "The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap" (2004) on the Game Boy Advance.
This is the monospaced variant, as found in the game's ROM and as used in the initial character name entry screens. In game, the font is then used proportionally - this will be provided as a separate font recreation.
A handful of characters - ™ trade mark sign (U+2122), ♪ eight note (U+266A), ❤ heavy black heart (U+2764), ▶ black right-pointing triangle (U+25B6) - had very subtle antialiasing. In this recreation, it has been removed. The tileset also includes two different sets of double quotation marks (which are not used in the game itself) - the "fatter" ones have been mapped to heavy double turned comma quotation mark ornament (U+275D) and heavy double comma quotation mark ornament (U+275E).
This font includes a full set of hiragana and katakana characters, with custom glyphs for characters with a dakuten and handakuten. The game itself also uses a series of complex kanji characters (particularly in the introduction). Some of those characters are also wider than the default 8 pixel tiles. These have not been included in this recreation.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This font is completely free to use in any project.
The aesthetic of this font is part inspired by my own handwriting, and part just wanting to make the smallest font I could. Standard height is 8p.
Unicode Tables: Basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Latin Extended A (mostly), Greek & Coptic, General Punctuation, Superscripts & Subscripts (mostly), Currency Symbols (mostly), Mathematical Operators (mostly), Block Elements, Geometric Shapes, Katakana, and Fullwidth Forms.

Based on the Ferengi character chart for the LCARS 47 Project. Tried to keep it phonetic where possible (compare with original chart on www.lcars47.com to see where the more counterintuitive mapping comes in, such as l- sounds mapped to z- dakuon, etc.). Clones encouraged!
This font is a recreation of Minecraft's "Mojang" font. (Mojang)
With some extra characters. (...a lot of extra characters.) (Plus)
The font currently supports the following:
English / Spanish
Japanese
(Hirigana + Katakana, no CJK glyphs yet)
Russian
A few other languages (albeit little) like Hewbrew
(usually around like 2-10%)
Enjoy. :)
This Font Supports:
・CJK Ideographic (Work in Progress)
・Greek And Coptic (Work in Progress)
・Latin-1 Supplement
・Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms
・Hiragana/Katakana
・...and More!
This is a clone of 6x3x4x3v1d0Constructed script for a conlang (5x5 version). Katakana keyboard setting required to use.
人工文字は人工言語を為(5x5バージョン)。カタカナキーボード設定は所要に使う。
Pretty much abandoned currently. Do with whatever you will.
Just please give credit, lest the effort go in vein.
I remember fondly playing Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls on the Game Boy Advance, FF1 in particular one of my favourite of the two games, which I had replayed a good number of times. As I became curious about the game once again, I started looking it up and started gazing at the fonts used, started looking up the font for it, and came across a resource sheet that contained all the characters for both Basic Latin and other languages, then I started to think about how the font changed looks in certain characters in other titles, such as the 3D remake of Final Fantasy IV and The 4 Heroes of Light, both games released for the Nintendo DS. I started thinking to myself, what if there was a monospaced version of this font?
And so, I got to work, thinking how it would all look if Square Enix indeed decided to go monospace for all the characters intstead of only the numbers for the GBA FF games and even had most of the small letters and even numbers expand horizontally by one pixel and even went the extra mile to add Greek, Coptic, Cyrillic and even Hiragana and Katakana. Not content with this, I even decided to add in a few extra things and even decided to add in characters used in computers of old, namely Box Drawing and Block Elements.
A bit of a "quick" project that I am finally happy to release onto the world.
5/12/23 : Fixed up some glyphs in the Box Drawing set. Now they should look nicer and fit with the rest good and proper.
