A recreation of the font used on the early CRT terminals from IBM, based on this source by Marcin Wichary.
I find there is a particular charm in the crudeness of some solutions compared to subsequent iterations or other 5x7 pixel fonts (see, for example, the numerals and |C|U|Y|).
I reproduced only the characters shown in the aforelinked image, placing them in what I considered to be the appropriate Unicode place.
I tried to look for some more glyphs (comma anyone?) but failed to find reliable sources.
Presenting Universal Studios and LJN Toys's Jaws, released in 1987, which was released on the movie in 1975. This game based on movies, and Jaws series.
Jaws series are:
Jaws (1975)
Jaws 2 (1978)
Jaws 3-D (1983)
Jaws 4 (1987)
Jaws 5 (1995)
Cruel Jaws (1995)
Deep Blue Sea (1999)
Just a really blocky font inspired by the many abstractivist typefaces of the 1970s. I based it off of a logo I made once, and it definitely isn't perfect (like seriously, as much as I try, I just can barely get the darn Y to look like anything remotely recognizable!)
EDIT: for some reason it doesn’t look very good zoomed out, so I would highly recommend zooming in before making up your mind about it.
This typeface is inspired by the 1970’s and draws from groovy and retro psychadelic aesthetic of the iconic decade. The capital letters have much more pronounced swirls and a more bubbly feeling than the lowercase ones. Since lowercase letters appear more often, they were designed to be more simple and legible than the capitals.
Rip-off of Taitoid.
Presenting Gladasya-ua TV, Turner Entertainment Co. and Bandai's The adventures of Gilligan's Island (from cartoons, aka. The adventures of Gilligan, released in the 1960s sitcom of the same name, and this game was released in 1989 or 1990. This was based on cartoons, this font was similar to Taitoid, Super Mario Bros and Babel No Tou. This game is based on movies.
