It's silly (but I couldn't get it out of my head): This is the font inside zignbox. Absolute negative space use. Unicase with alternates, of course. But it works well!.

Could you please stop making me wanna eat chocolate with those delicious looking samples!

Great addition to the family compa!

It somehow reminds me of classic digital age style lettering similar to MICR letters.

@Sed4tives: Choco is a good companion, believe me, but don't let it speak for you. Honestly talking, this font appeared by itself infront of my eyes, I don't have full control over the glyphs because I've tried to keep the existing negative space in the zignbox letters to recreate these new ones.

Foolish things...

Hah my friend, ain't nothing wrong with the letters, they look rather attractive to be honest! 👍🏿

Comment by Sed4tives Tue, 16th january

@Sed4: A thousand thanks to you for the support and the always kind and constructive comments once again, mi amigo!

Surprisingly solid font born from negative space! Reminiscent of MICR style indeed. Nice looking color sample above.

Congratulations! FontStruct Staff have deemed your FontStruction worthy of special mention. “zignlight eYe/FS” is now a Top Pick.
Comment by Rob Meek (meek) Wed, 17th january

@Yautja: Yes, that was my initial surprising idea and I've tried to preserve that negative space in 99% of the resulting glyphs. I'm glad you like it! I also added the "old computer" tag.

@meek: Thanks a million, Boss!!

Congrats on the TP !

Comment by Sed4tives Wed, 17th january

Thanks, compa.

Comment by elmoyenique Wed, 17th january

this is one extremely good negative space font! the varying thickness of different strokes gives me that handwriting feel, while still containing no curves whatsoever.

The shadows look awesome.

Surprising experiment, this came about in an interesting way. The diagonals on the counters are a great feature!

@moontr3 & @Noah F. Ross & @bigfour: I greatly grateful your comments of support and appreciation about my work here, pals, but this has been a lucky coincidence. I've tried searching for something similar in the negative spaces of various of my other work and haven't found anything like it... yet. But yes, the font appeared and it looked well, so I did it... Thanks again!
