#typograhy experts: I'm looking for a condensed sans serif typeface, that has an open bent letter 4 like shown here in my poor drawing. I feel like this is not so rare in signage like house numbers, but I can't seem to find a proper example.

My grandmother passed away yesterday. Which is sad, but not as sad as the fact that someone in my family paid someone money to design a mourning card, that person thought that Comic Sans was the appropriate typeface, and nobody stopped them. #typograhy

Besides of a game engine, I'm also working on an actual bitmap font set. At one point I want to make it open source, don't know what license to use for it yet (public domain/unlicense?). I try to include as many as possible, but this fontsize makes it pretty hard to distinguish between double acutes and tildes (which I didn't do, hoping languages don't use the two at the same time) and many Vietnamese combined diacritic characters. Font is variable width, and there's a mostly completed 5 pixel high version with capital letters only

INTERROBANG - ORIGIN
The interrobang was conceptualized by an advertising exec, Martin Spektor, in 1962. He disliked the growing trend of combining exclamation marks and question marks for emphasis in advertising. He came up with idea of combining the two marks to create the new glyph, “‽”, to improve the visual appeal of ad copy.
