Hijack is my first typeface and as been produced from my theme Asymmetrical. The font takes the characteristic of imperfections and glitches. In a world that often criticises imperfections and irregularities it offers an option to embrace the unsymmetrical aspects within this typeface. The use of this typeface could fit in a large variety of circumstances and forms, whether it be billboard posters, t-shirt and bags, TV, flyers and online website banners.
This typeface design is a edited version of Pharoan Ultra Bold as it was heavy and bold which gave me more to do with it, the theme of the type is destruction.
I wanted to merge both Deconstructivism and Glitch Art into my typeface. By finalizing my idea I looked at how letters could be morphed by being pulled and pushed, what would it look like if the letter was to be dropped what shapes it could form - instead of taking parts away from it.
Meet ERROR! the elder cousin of Rocket Ride, with some distortions here and there. There is an alternatively glitched ? on < and ! on >.\
Looks legible at pixel size, doesn't it?

This is an experiment; I used only one composite brick to come up with such a font.
~ - * are the filled chars.
This is used in Virtual Gremlin for instances when the Gremlins/'pets' speak. Since Gremlins are literal glitch creatures and not the best at communication (and since 5x4 is a very odd size), some letters are turned and others are split. This lends the font some use as a weak cipher.
Technically, Gremlin 5x4 is also a conlang. Every glyph has associated sounds which are unique to the Gremlins speaking them. I call this conlang "Glitch English". Perhaps, now that I have this font ready-made, I can set about making a dictionary. :^)
Original size: 6pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
