Large font used in numerous Atari video arcade games, 1984-1987. As the original font uses three different colors for a font-smoothing effect, I attempted to replicate it in two-color by using differently-sized squares. Not sure how well that works; as such, any suggestions are welcome. Best below 20 pt.
The ubiquitous video game font standard, likely designed by Lyle Rains of Atari; first used in 1976's "Sprint 2" by Atari, and then on until well into the 1990s. Used by most video arcade game companies, including (but not limited to): Namco, Williams Electronics, Irem, Atari, Konami, Bally-Midway, Taito, Nintendo and Sega. The lower case characters are from several Atari video arcade games from 1984-1987. Plenty of alternate characters -- variations used in conjunction with the standard font, all selected from a variety of MAME32 game roms.
An experiment -- Half-tone uses dots, so why not replace dots with pixels? Thus, Half-Pixel Arcade was born.

500+ glyphs, including extensive support for accented Latin letters, world currency symbols, and custom Roman numerals, along with assorted dingbats and multiocular O scribal glyphs used in Old Church Slavonic in text referencing eyes.
Support for majuscule punctuation, more non-Latin scripts, and more extended Latin & dingbats possibly upcoming.
If you know any of the non-Latin scripts included, please let me know of any gaps/accuracy or legibility issues!
