Recreation of the alternate small pixel font from Nintendo's "Super Metroid" (1994) on the SNES.
The numbers are used in the game itself (for the energy, rocket, and bomb counters). The letters are used for the end credits.
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support. For a monochrome version, see this recreation.
Note that the "Q" and "Z" didn't feature in the credits, so they're my custom additions.
Apart from these, only the characters used in the game have been included.

Recreation of the pixel font from Serge Payeur/Ubisoft's "Peur sur Amityville" (1987) on the Amstrad CPC.
Note the inclusion of the "square root" character, which is used as part of the story. The original game seems to only include the lowercase "é" and "è" diacritics (and they both look the same, with the accent just being a horizontal line above the letter). In this recreation, I expanded this to include "ê" and "ë", and to apply the same approach to the lowercase accented "a", "i", "o", "u", and "y". Lastly, this recreation includes a "ç" character, which was absent from the game.
Apart from these additions, only the characters used in the game have been included.
Used on character profiles and for puzzles in the Professor Layton games (up until Miracle Mask where all of the pixel fonts were replaced with the switch to 3D).
Made this after finding that the regular font was slightly different when I was making a mock-up of the character profiles. It’s as close as I could make it with the references I could find!
Reconstruction of the blocky font from Professor Layton and the Curious Village used for character profiles. Had to improvise for the X glyph because I couldn’t find any examples to go off of, as well as punctuation beyond the colon.
For profile recreations, the word profile is blank and uncoloured, but the number and character’s name are all coloured in white.
Update: I found a Q glyph reference and updated it accordingly! Still nothing for an X glyph, however...
