Factor

Sacrificing the descender and re-working the glyphs that use them has opened up some extra possibilities I’ve explored a little with previous typefaces.

With this typeface I wanted something very heavy and yet oblique/slanted somewhat reminiscent of the feel of Futura Extra Bold Oblique but this 8x8 was designed without direct reference to it as it really needs to primarily fit the limitations.

It works quite well, using a custom renderer like FZX to add an extra line or two of vertical space and perhaps make it proportional would really make it stand-out.

As it is the font still works quite well for screens of text providing it is not too dense.
