Recreation of the pixel font from Codemasters' "Rockstar Ate My Hamster" (1988). Slightly expanded with a few additional custom characters not present in the original game.

Recreation of the 6px pixel font used in Nintendo's "Super Mario Kart" (1992) on the SNES. In the game, the font has a 2px spacing to account for the outline. In this recreation, I opted to just go for a 1px spacing - if you do use it outlined, make sure to add the extra pixel for authenticity.
Update Sept. 2019: added ":" and "," and fixed incorrect "Q", "V", "(" and ")"

Crang is a proportional sans-serif pixel font recreation based on the original main display font appearing in the video game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, developed by Tribute Games and released on various platforms by Dotemu in 2022.
The character set of this font was greatly expanded with countless additional special characters, diacritic variants, in-game icons, numbers, buttons, and lots of unique glyphs, each one of them designed to match the spirit and style of the original font design.
The base font size and recommended setting for Crang is 25pt and multiples of that. Use metric kerning and no additional smoothing effects for the ultimate pixel experience.
