Recreation of the pixel font from Bits Studio/Flying Edge's "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" (1991) on the Sega Mega Drive. In game, the font uses a subtle form of antialiasing on the top-left-most pixel, which has been omitted from this recreation. Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the primary pixel font from Konami's "Akumajō Special: Boku Dracula-kun" (1990) on the Nintendo Famicom. It includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters.
Note that in the game, the dakuten and handakuten are rendered as a character on the preceding line, while this recreation includes characters with these diacritics in the correct position in the correct character codepoints themselves - for this reason, the characters themselves are taller than 8 pixels.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the italic pixel font from Capcom's "Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara" (1996). This font is very sparingly used in the game - apparently, just for the character names, SP/HP counters, and (partially at least) the inventory ring interface.
This font includes a near complete set of hiragana and katakana characters, as well as a wide range of special characters (such as a full set of zodiac symbols).
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
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 primary pixel font from Sin-Nihon Laser Soft/Telenet Japan/NEC's "Last Alert" (aka "Red Alert", 1989) on the PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
What started as a revisit of an old Impulse Tracker font, EK-WINTR, turned into an exercise in clarity and distinct letterforms in a small (4×8) array for as much as I could manage. I'll gladly add accented Latin letters on request (or as I get the urge), and I might have a go at filling in the Greek and Cyrillic alphabets if there's demand.
Note: This is the bicameral version (typical upper-and lowercase forms). E-Keet Winterlate A26 is the “Alphabet 26” version (no distinction in forms between upper- and lower case).
Revision 2019-11-13: In loose regex terms, revised [MWmw™⇑], added [£←↑→↓⇒] and Roman numerals.
Revision 2019-11-16: Added [★☆].
This is a clone of E-Keet Winterlate A26Recreation of the pixel font from Taito's "Warrior Blade: Rastan Saga Episode III" (1991). Note the roman numerals, mapped to their respective unicode characters (U2160-U2162). Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the small pixel font from the european/north american release of Sonic! Software Planning's "Shining Force II" (1993) on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Jaleco's "Saiyūki World II: Tenjōkai no Majin" (1990) on the NES, which was re-themed for the US market as "Whomp 'Em". A fairly standard font, but with a few nice quirks (particularly on the "X"). Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Modified clone that provides a style variation to the previously published Jurriaan Schrofer font revival I did, called "STF_SATER (Isometric)".
The earlier version I did was in fact amongst my very first font designs ever, and at this stage I still had about zero real typographic background knowledge.
Due to this I simply went out copying the exact lettering 1:1 as was seen in the source that I used. Not realizing that the angle of projection applied to the lettering in the original would render my font next to useless.
So I ended up with cool looking isometric letterforms that were heavily handicapped in a full font.
This time I overhauled the original and got rid of its isometric nature and simply just making it a regular, fully upright style.
Now with this addition it finally becomes a truly functional font at last.
I hope you like it !
This is a clone of STF_JS-SATER (ISOMETRIC)Recreation of the built-in font found in the old Thomson line of 8-bit computers (Thomson MO5, MO5E, MO5NR, MO6, T9000, TO7, TO7/70, TO8, TO8D, TO9, TO9+ and Olivetti Prodest PC128).
This recreation combines the character sets found in the various localised versions. A few accented characters have been added to make the set more complete, but note that there are no acute/grave/circumflex accent versions for uppercase letters.
Apart from that, only the characters present in the original font (that I could find through emulation) have been included.
Recreation of the small pixel font from Arcade Zone's "Legend" (1994) on the SNES.
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This is a clone of Legend (SNES)What started as a revisit of an old Impulse Tracker font, EK-WINTR, turned into an exercise in clarity and distinct letterforms in a small (4×8) array for as much as I could manage. I'll gladly add accented Latin letters on request (or as I get the urge), and I might have a go at filling in the Greek and Cyrillic alphabets soon if there's demand.
Note: E-Keet Winterlate BC is bicameral (typical upper-and lowercase forms). This is the “Alphabet 26” version (no distinction in forms between upper- and lower case).
Extra note: The vertical metrics are present wonky compared to the BC version because they're primarily calculated off of a few lowercase letters... which are very different between the two! Once FontStruct gains more direct control of vertical metrics, the generated fonts will line up fine.
Revision 2019-11-14: In loose regex terms, revised [MWmwÑñĒ™⇑], moved [₀-₉] to their correct slots, added [£←↑→↓⇒] and Roman numerals.

This is a cloneRecreation of the colour pixel font from The Bitmap Brother's "Gods" (1991) port on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
Note that in the game, there is also a separate set of 0-9 numbers used for the score counter. This recreation only includes the slightly "cut off" letters and numbers used on the title screen, status messages, and high-score screen.
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of one of the pixel fonts from Johnson Voorsanger Productions/Sega's "ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron" (1993) on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
This font is almost exactly the same as the equivalent variant in "ToeJam & Earl" (1991), with the exception of the "b", "j", "z", zero, and some of the punctuation marks.
In the game, this font is dynamically switched with another variant, creating an animated text effect.
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support. For a monochrome version, see this recreation.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
