Another recap in a series to attempt to re-create some of the works from late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer" (15 april 1926 – 1 juli 1990).
This time I revisited the lettering for "BREDERO BOUW BEDRIJF" and completed the entire alphabet and some additional punctuations.
I hope you like it.
A chimera (fusion) which combines inline-versus-outline, maze, Gemscript, and other techniques to produce a timeless look.

Original size: 6.75pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
Design Rules:
1. Square bricks only.
2. A 1px soft border of negative space must exist between lines whenever possible.
3. Glyphs must fill the 9x9 grid to the greatest extent possible given the rounded style.
4. The set of glyphs shall be a heterogeneous mix of symmetrical and asymmetrical forms.
5. Negative space will replace positive in any situation wherein the small grid size or the geometry of a letterform would be detrimental to the chosen style. This includes all situations where any shape lacks at least a soft 1px border of negative space around it.

This is the second version of my font "Znipped" which also happens to be my first TP.
Building on @erictom333's suggestion of adding lower case letters, lower case is now included!
The height of uppercase and lowercase letters are the same... intentionally
Enjoy!
As always, Open to comments and suggestions!
This is a clone of ZnippedWith 12x12 pixels at size 6/8 font, the new brick filter options are on display in Zodiac Square. To ensure a square font, any accented glyphs from Mandrill (my monospaced, lanky, much-of-unicode font) that went above a capital A's peak were cut, but many lower-case accented glyphs stayed in. Since this is meant for a text-heavy game genre where legibility at small size is important, all of Latin Extended Additional was cut -- it was just too hard to read at small sizes, and I doubt it would be very useful in a roguelike or similar text-based game that needs square glyphs. This looks pretty good with anti-aliasing, but the preview may be funny because it uses the old 2x2 filter as well as the new horizontal stretch filter. It's called Zodiac Square because of the 12x12 pixels, 12 signs of the Zodiac.
This is a clone of MandrillThere are several recreations of the original PSone Final Fantasy VII font around, but none of them are either as accurate or comprehensive as this version, which also features the Japanese hiragana and katakana alphabets as well as menu numbers, special characters, and whatnot.
The base font size and recommended setting for Reactor7 is 16pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning and no additional smoothing effects for the ultimate Final Fantasy VII experience.
Final Fantasy VII on the PlayStation was developed and released by Squaresoft in 1997.
~ Reactor7 - created by Caveras after the original main text font used in Final Fantasy VII for the Sony PlayStation. ~
Lawgivers' font. Vertical members are doubled, horizontal members are not - except when needed to complete vertical members. Overhangs and bends help to make glyphs more distinctive.
Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

This is a clone of Lazzaro(Complete basic latin set). First iteration of a font meant to be used as a substitution cypher in a videogame set in a very far future. Letters are, with a few exceptions, inspired by their corresponding latin glyph. Numbers look a bit like cells dividing in a petri dish. Punctuation and symbols are designed for easy recognition.

Home blends contemporary sans-serif characters, created using negative space, with ornate mosaic patterns to form a decorative display font in the style of kitchen tiles. Each character is unique - set against four identical patterned tiles. This typeface is very versatile and functional insofar as that it has the potential to be used in a variety of diverse settings such as magazine article headings, pottery and ceramic prints, wall-hangings and shop signage.
Based on a typeface which was used in the opening credits of The Terminator, The Running Man, Class of 1999, and also used on Robert A. Heinlein's book covers (there's a font called Heinlein which is similar). I've been looking for the original for a long time but haven't found it, so I recreated it myself. (Edit: apparently it's called Bessellen)
Now updated to be closer to the original, plus added kerning.
