Typography

    ZX Origins

    I have designed many 8x8 bitmap fonts over the years. They are freely available to be used in games you create in exchange for a mention in the credits section. I know of 308 usages in games and apps so far!

    Each page shows simulated screenshots, backstory on the design and inspiration, tips for usage as well as variations and a download ZIP containing files in TrueType and legacy formats - Spectrum, Atari, Commodore 64, Acorn, CPC...
