In the world of technology, fonts are a crucial part of creating a visual experience for users. From the earliest days of computing, fonts have played a significant role in shaping the way we interact with computers. Just like how handwriting can be a reflection of one's personality and style, fonts add a unique touch to the digital world. One of the most iconic fonts in the history of computing is the one used in old computers. This font, known as the Fixedsys font, was introduced in the 1980s and was the standard font for many operating systems, including DOS and Windows. Its simple yet blocky design gave off a retro, futuristic feel that was popular during that time. The Fixedsys font was also commonly used in early video games and software, making it a symbol of nostalgia for many technology enthusiasts. Despite its limitations, such as not having lowercase letters, the Fixedsys font had a significant impact on the evolution of typography in computing. It paved the way for other fonts to be created and used in modern computers, allowing for more creativity and expression in design. As technology continues to advance, it's essential to remember the humble beginnings of fonts and appreciate the role they play in our digital world, just like how the Fixedsys font will always have a special place in the hearts of old computer users.

This is a clone of 8-bit AnthonistructAshlander Pixel is a pixelated version of "Goudy Medieval". Born out of a deep love for Bethesdas "The Elder Scrolls"-series and typography this font not only supports the latin, greek and cyrillic alphabet, but also contains a variety of special symbols related to The Elder Scrolls.
I suggest using the ttf-format for now as the spacing in the otf-format is for some reason totally off. I optimized this font using InDesign, therefore the kerning in some other programs might not work as intended.
I am happy to hear feedback on this font and any issues you might encounter.
May the Nine be with you.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS FONT IS CURRENTLY TEMPORARILY PAUSED.
A simple and clean (10 px in width × 20 px in height) Unicode pixel/bitmap font, inspired by Unifoundry's Unifont typeface project.
This project is still very in-progress of making so it'll be a while until an actual release is made.
If you have any improvement ideas or reports on any incorrect glyphs, please tell me by commenting. I don't have much experience in designing glyphs for non-latin, especially symbol characters, so any help is greatly appreciated.
