In honor of the begining of the end of FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into the orange president's collusion with Russians and the successive obstruction of justice, as US Attornet General William Barr releases a highly redacted public version of the Mueller Report, as well as a lighter redacted version to congress on this Thursday, April 18th, 2019, I am releasing this font, "REDACTED" which offers monospaced support (so that individuals can't guess on letters based on character width) for most all Latin characters as well as support for other languages.
Now you can redact hardcopies of electronic documents, too.
Note: Only the printed paper documents are redacted. In fact, I was so amused that someone had unredacted an electronic document by selecting and choosing another font, that it inspired me to do this font.
Specials letterset contains: TOP SECRET | CONFIDENTIAL | YOUR EYES ONLY etc... which can only be seen if the character which contains each phrase is alone on a line, or the last on a line and has room to display before running off the page. Because this is a monospaced font, these phrases are much larger the character width. In fact, each of these phrases starts out with one width blank space so that you have to know where to find them because a normal character picker won't display them.

TOP SECRET is at Unicode FFF9
CONFIDENTIAL is at Unicode FFFA
YOUR EYES ONLY is at Unicode FFFB

A monospaced version of Barcade Brawl that has been modified to work well as a roguelike font. Not every glyph is centered yet, but all the Basic Latin and More Latin ones are.
A few glyphs (such as #) are modified to break the matrix so that they link together. This is because these glyphs are used to form continuous walls and other structures.
Note also that this design uses a 7x7px matrix which is monospaced at 8px to create 8x7 tiles. I have placed a stray pixel on an unused glyph to make 1px of extra line spacing occur so that the final tiles are 8x8. The preview here onsite adds another px, so it looks slightly out of square. The sample below does too, because it was made before this fix was implemented.
I was working on another spinoff of this that was high-resolution rather than pixel, but since this font has the same LC and UC, I might transplant those glyphs to this font as well to make it as multifunctional as possible. That will more than double the work of making an already big font, though, so it will depend on whether this font gets used by others. A few game developers already use the original "Barcade Brawl" so there is a possibility...

This is a clone of Barcade BrawlAfter having finished creating Pixelbabania VI, I thought to myself, why not make a version of this font, but with the height restricion removed for those who don't like having foreign characters squished up?
Even added Japanese Katana and Hiragana characters into the mix.
27/4/22 - Came across two glyphs that needed a bit of fixing, the registered sign, which was a width over, and Single Low-9 Quotation Mark, which needed to be moved a pixel down.
This is a clone of Pixelbabania VISome time after having published Pixelbabania VI, then had a look at another font called Futura and saw its light version, I thought to myself, what if I made a lighter version of this font?
I then decided to hunker down and get to work on making this, feeling the flow of creation pour out.
I do hope you all enjoy downloading and using this as much as I enjoyed making and sharing with all.
Something I had been on and and off again working on for some time, making sure everything looked alright before I so much as thought about placing this creation onto here for all to witness.
Decided to impose a limit on myself when creating this font, such as width and height after being inspired by seeing translations of old video games. I had to get a bit creative with some of the characters and how I could make them look good without butchering them too badly.
I do hope you enjoy using this font as much as I enjoyed making it.
7/4/22 - Decided to add a VI to the name of the font, after the width I limited myself to using.
27/4/22 - Came across two glyphs that needed a bit of fixing, the registered sign, which was a width over, and Single Low-9 Quotation Mark, which needed to be moved a pixel down.
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!

A simple 12×16 font made up of pixels. Contains all of ASCII, box drawing characters, some block elements, plus some random characters from other sets. Made for use in my ASCII Roguelike. Do whatever you want with it. I don't care.
