This is a clone of Saint Dragon (Small)Recreation of the pixel font from Sega's "Hokuto no Ken - Shin Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu" (aka "Hokuto No Ken II", 1989) on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.
The game was released in the west as "Last Battle: Legend of the Final Hero", but without the original "Fist of the North Star" license, and with many gameplay aspects (most notably, character names and the level of gore) changed.
Note that this version only includes the punctuation marks used in the original Japanese game. For the western release, a different set was used.
The font includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters. Some of the core katakana characters were missing, so I added them from similar more complete fonts. In the tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned next to their respective character. In this recreation, characters that use them are pre-combined into a single glyph.
With the exception of the handful of extra katakana glyphs, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Recreation of the pixel font from ERE Informatique/Exxos' "Kult: The Temple of Flying Saucers" (aka "Chamber of the Sci-Mutant Priestess", 1989). Only the characters used in the game (including the French and German versions) have been included.
