My first Pixelart font :)
Also please don't worry about the letters at the end. They're bugged
What a horrible night to have a font!
This font adds upon the font "Castlevania 2" by Patrick Lauke. I am a coder, and simply can't use fonts without their having all the necessary symbols. I did this very quickly, and it may be inaccurate or imbalanced so feel free to take it and remix it yourself!
The "gremoji" symbols used in Virtual Gremlin. These are spoken to the player by those Gremlins who are not intelligent enough to form words, and can be used to guage the Gremlins' moods.
Original size: 21pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
I designed this 16x16 pixel font to facilitate texturing and dithering for pixel artists. Not every piece of art software has tools designed for texturing/dithering, and loading lots of custom brushes for the purpose can slow one's software way down as well. This font was made to attempt to solve these problems. Now you can dither, shade, and texture by typing! Every glyph repeats as a seamless texture both horizontally and vertically.
The name comes from my emulator/game, "Virtua Gremlin". Although these patterns weren't in the game (it used 9x9 tiles, not 16x16), many of the patterns here are based on that earlier work. "Skins" is a reference to graphical skins, of course. :D

USAGE GUIDE
A-Z = textures
a-z = dithering/shading patterns
0-9 = scanlines
The rest is sort of a mishmash... I'll organize it better once I have enough glyphs to warrant a good classification system...
Have an idea for a pattern? Want to see a particular sprite or aesthetic included? Let me know :D

Tip: View this in the Character Map so you can more easily grab and paste glyphs when designing!
