tonight's #pixelfont recreation: koei/rékoetion's "uncharted waters" ("daikōkai jidai", 1991) on the #NES / #famicom with an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana https://www.splintered.co.uk/experiments/1763 #pixelart #retrogaming

I updated my CPC464 font to version 2.0!
https://codeberg.org/Dmian/font-cpc464
This versions has a different license (SIL Open Font License, but the previous versions are still included with their original licenses), adds two new widths (Expanded, called "Mode 0" and Condensed or "Mode 2", that are added to the Regular "Mode 1") and a UFO source is included.
Hope you enjoy it! ☺️

This is the original blog post for my Bescii font. There's nothing new in it, but I'm re-posting it here to allow for Mastodon comments:

tonight's quick #pixelfont recreation: ACG/Ultimate Play the Game's "Outlaws" (1985) on the #c64 https://www.splintered.co.uk/experiments/1760 #pixelart #retrogaming

A sample of the current mappings/reworked glyphs look. I really wish I had access to some better font generation tools to be able to tweak some kerning pairs.

I have reorganised my Decker font importing tool to be a bit more approachable - rather than starting with a list of obscure font formats, it starts with some links to collections of high-quality fonts, with instructions (and screenshots!) describing how to find the file in the specific format the importer needs.

Shoutouts to @damieng, @patrick_h_lauke, and Rob Hagemans (no known Fediverse account) for creating and maintaining such great collections, and making them available for other creators to use.
