At some point, it's just annoying to have too many fonts.
or joystix which should be legal, but it's also made 1:1 to referrence nintendo font (found in devkit of nes)
I wish font selectors could adapt, having categories or something.
Oh yeah.
Serif, and sans sections
it becomes a pain when you just need that "bitmap font, 10 px native size, frequency of use - low"
The one from Splatoon.
Looks like 70s tripped over toy box
@DanielKO whenever i see logo fonts used for information pages - something dies inside me little by little
Yeah, at least in Splatoon 2 they switched to a simpler font.
aka - actually hired typographer
or graphics designer which had better taste in fonts
Splatoon 1 has two fonts: Paintball and some regular Sans font.
I wish they'd use the Sans font for all the verbose text.
this is one of my favorite fonts https://www.dafont.com/timeburner.font it's very light and detail compression is good
it also partially calls out to art deco, which is always a plus
This is the Splatoon 2 font.
It's crap like this that makes me dislike Silicon Valley.
It's a bunch of autists running the show, who can't agree on anything close to a standardization, even after 30 years
I don't know, Splatoon 2 font looks too irregular still.
Yeah, a bit, but it's still leagues ahead splatoon 1 crap
@DanielKO also check this out - if you ever need to think about using comic sans - try good dog instead. it's still a goofy font. but looks better https://www.dafont.com/good-dog.font
I like it
I remember back on the old Palm Pilots, you could draw with the stylus your own font characters, and then use them as if it's your own handwriting
it's perfect for kids games also, in fact - a proto-flash game (in a sense that it's structured like an edutament flash game, only before macromedia projector) for windows 3.1 used it and it was fine
wish i could recall the name
Text adventures?
noo
no bang bang
Like Putt Putt saves the zoo?
before that
or after, i don't remember timeline of putt putt releases
Oh, the Sierra era
Sierra had some of the best games
emphasis on looking like flash game
fuck. this is gonna bug the living shit out of me now
give me a moment, i need to dig in old hard drive
