tobias uses a different font for his dialogue than most other characters. i'm gonna assume it's because he's stuck morphed, but i dont actually know much about animorphs outside my morbid fascination with this bargin bin pokemon clone
i also dont remember if anybody else uses this font and my lazy ass is not checking :>
This is a clone of Animorphs GBC (dialogue)The Unicode bitmap font from Minecraft, also known as GNU Unifont. The game has a font priority system called "providers" that looks for bitmap data for a specific character in the non-Latin European character set first, then in the accented Latin character set, then in the game's low-res default font, then finally here, in the high-res Unicode character set. You can override this priority system by going into Options... > Language..., then setting "Force Unicode Font" to ON.
The game stores this font in images containing 16 rows and 16 columns of characters. Each character is 16 pixels wide and 16 pixels tall, totalling 256 characters per image. Each image represents one Unicode codepage, and there are 256 pages, which covers characters U+0000 to U+FFFF. Control characters and most CJK characters are omitted here, because FontStruct doesn't officially support them.
The font is not monospace, however, so the effective widths of each character are stored in a separate file called glyph_sizes.bin. Information for each character is stored in one byte, and the upper and lower 4 bits of this byte represent the start column and end column with a number ranging from 0 to 15, where 0 is the leftmost column of the character's allotted 16x16 space, and 15 is the rightmost column, respectively.
Knowing all of this allowed me to automate most of the steps involved in creating this recreation. I did not use the FontStructor to make this, I instead used a program to directly interact with FontStruct's API. It is possible to add unsupported characters to a font with this method, but I chose to stay within the limits of what is officially supported.
This is SquaredEyes57. A pixel-art font I made to use in the games I make. Every Character is within the bounds of 5x7 pixels. This is the second iteration of SquareEyes35, which was only 3x5 pixels and turned out to be way too hard to read for longer texts. I hope it can be useful for whatever you need.

A miniaturized version of Madufaros with many subtle aesthetic changes.
I may condense it further, by removing certain details (such as the backs of "f" and "t" along with the projecting front part of "l"), but I'm satisfied with it as-is for now... more testing must be done...
This is a clone of MadufarosPixel prototype of a font for an upcoming game being developed by yours truly. This will likely be used, but only for flashbacks and dreams. The normal ingame font may be a high-res version of this, or something different - tests are still being done to determine this.
English only for now, as there are no plans to localize the game myself.
"Madufaros" = "daughter of Madu".

A simple 16x16 terrain tileset. This is designed to work in color AND in monochrome.
In making this, I condensed all known biomes (terrestrial, aquatic, air, space, manmade, transitional) into 26 tiles. This allows a given tile to define multiple different types of areas/terrain, and it allows you to come up with your own meanings for these tiles, rather than having to memorize a legend. Some of the tiles are obvious and some are not; this is by design.
A-Z, a-z = terrain
0-9, 0-9+SHIFT = map borders/frame

I saw Hypnospace Outlaw being played and the in-game browser font made me feel a bit neurotic. Here's a font that looks more like Micro Machina than it does Hypnospace Outlaw, but watching that game made me create this design, so I'm still calling it Hypnoverse.
To make this font look more distinct from other 4x5s, I condensed some glyphs (Lfjrtx) and altered others (QVbdgjkmpqvwy0469). These changes make this font very condensed and extremely easy to read at original size, even when sitting way back. However, they also make it slightly worse for terminals and chats in my view, since now smaller sets of glyphs are the same width (lines won't line up as much since more words and numbers will vary in width). So, whereas Micro Machina has a bit more regularity, this has a bit more style and takes up a bit less space.
If you came hoping for the actual Hypnospace Outlaw font, I'm happy to FontStruct it if asked. (EDIT: It has since been done by another user.)
A work in progress. I'm designing this years after I designed the original non-fancy version. This font will probably be used for chapter names and other short bits of text as opposed to being used for the text of the book itself.
I want this to convey a whimsical and gaudy vibe - think Agatha Christie rhythmically plunging her head down into a giant bowl of Parma Violets to the tune of "Veterans Day Poppy" by Captain Beefheart. Actually, don't think that. My books are about fluorescent pink and purple poodles using psionics to solve crimes, not WEIRD CRAP.
This is a clone of Poodle AnthologyFont used for the text of Poodle Caboodle Anthology, a compilation of short stories I wrote for the games Seven Candles, Trap Farmer Brer Brah, and Naively.
In this font the principles which I associate with "bookishness" are taken nearly to their logical end. This font is so bookish, it sometimes looks like a scaled-down, aliased version of a high-resolution font. It embraces its flaws in a highly methodical way which helps it cohere. It's also designed with speedreading in mind - something you can see in the simple curves of letters like aefgjrsy.
Vector art used for the Halftruth Lens and Deceptive Lens in the game Naively. These are pecuilar objects which impart the holder with certain visions relating to things the holder wonders about.
These lenses and the symbols' meanings are randomized each game, so the player never knows beforehand which lens is which. Below is what would be the default layout for an unseeded game...

Font from the ingame marquee display of Barcade Brawl, a 2015 game by yours truly. This was made to look similar to the system fonts from old arcade boards, PC microsystems, etc. You've probably seen the fonts I'm talking about; they're everywhere and many people refer to them singularly as "the arcade font" or "the NES font".
This is 7x7 with no wasted matrix, but it looks better without monospacing since not every glyph is the same width. It also makes a decent terminal & chat font, at least for those who don't care about the case of the messages they read and write.
Feel free to use this in your games, etc.!

7x9 font used for the MozPOS, a cellphone-like device from my game Trap Farmer Brer Brah. Only the glyphs from the original font have been included.
"Moz" stands for a person's nickname. "POS" stands for... well, you know. :D
Version 1.5: All permutations of E and F were refined and improved.

A modernized, rounded, and truncated version of Marengi. This is made to be a good text editor/chat font. It has very few kerning pairs, so it should render fine in any software.
Ascenders are only allowed to be as tall as the uppercase/numerals, while descenders are allowed to go 2px below the line. This creates a natural line spacing that is readable and not too dense. (Diacritics break this rule, of course... darn them...)
Gone are the curved descenders/termini on letters like gjty. The simpler geometry makes this design more suited to speedreading than its predecessor. In fact, altering those four letters alone improves speedreading on this font by up to 14%!

An alternate system font for the Virtual Gremlin, a software-based games prototyping system I wrote in 2016-2017. This font ended up never being used.
This was only able to be recovered due to the advent of a lucky screenshot which a friend posted online. The font was in a spritesheet which was being shown off, so I was able to FontStruct it!
A mostly-4x5 design made for legibility, aesthetics, and an almost authoritarian regularity. This makes it suited for comics, tutorials, general reading, and more. It can be easily read at its original size with the same effort it would take to read a high-res design of the same size.
This design has been tested and reported to make an excellent font for IRC and other chat clients!

A 7x7 outline design which is made to form solid-looking masses from the glyphs while still allowing the outer perimeters of words to take on some unique shapes.
Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
A tiny font made for pixel art tutorials and streamer use. The inspiration comes from old art of video game controllers which I used to make, in particular the letters ABCLRXYZ which I drew many times on many controller buttons. The more complex letters (B,E,M,W) take on slightly abstract forms for neatness' sake.
Since these glyphs are all 4x4 unicase, compositing them for use in Fontstruct tutorials might save you a lot of work. Feel free to clone this for such a use.
