This is a clone of FluorescentAn attempt to make an esoteric form of Latin which is governed by the same amount and extent of structural logic as normal Latin. In other words, Latin that is weird, but makes sense while being as readable to the initiated as normal Latin is. It's a design that is weird in order to make itself easier to read, not harder.
This is a borderline IVO design, not because of its appearance, but because it sometimes requires the same set of visual considerations to interpret.
I wanted to create a typeface that was edgy but still fit the night scene. I imagined people waiting in line to in exclusive club surrounded in neon lights in an alleyway. I know very random, but the alleyway inspired the dead-end patterns in my font.
Neon-style lettering in 5x5. I tried to keep the considerations of neon tubes in mind. Most forms are simple and several of them get repurposed for other glyphs. Further, the bends which would occur in actual neon tubing were taken into account while routing each glyph.
A closer look will find some advanced glyphs which would have to be produced by a master glassblower in order to work as neon fixtures (such as DHJKXOQ08*#+).

This is spaced like a pixel font so that it can be used as one. Fonts which work especially well in both pixel and high-res mediums can be considered Hybrids.
"Lightened Son" is an anagram for "Neon Delights".

Idea for Improvement: A wiring solution - some system designed to be on a layer behind the letters so that they look convincingly wired up.

Design rules:
Use 'gentle' curves.
All ends are rounded caps.
Never allow paths to cross or to touch.
Define letters & symbols in as few lines as possible.

I wound-up with sort of a neon light font. Use, study, modify, create derivatives (use a different reserved font name & update docs) and/or redistribute this rounded line font. I hope you enjoy it.
