Neither of these go above 8-pixel width, just for convenience sake.


Recommended widths: 7, 7, 5, 7, 7, 8, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8,
8, 8, 8, 5, 7, 8, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 7, 8,
8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 5, 7, 7, 3, 3, 7,
3, 8, 7, 7, 7, 7, 6, 7, 6 (or 5), 8 (or 7), 8, 8, 8, 7, 7, 7

Yes, the ‘f’ shouldn’t have a right margin. Look at the phrase “elf fucker’s fickle finger of fate kerfuffle” with it and try to tell me that looks good Wink

And just for fun, in UltraLite flavoring (looks kind of ho-hum IMO, but it’s what all the cool kids are doing these days):

I think the thin one is just an excuse to make good on a VWF as opposed to something that's actually aesthetically pleasing. Just 'cause you can do something doesn't mean you should, right? I like the second one, it seems a lot closer to the ones used in the rest of the series. It's a beat 'em up, from a time when EVERYTHING WAS IN CAPS AND THATS THE WAY WE LIKED IT.

I agree. The fonts earlier were too thin, they didn't fit the game. The second one from those last two you posted would get my vote.

Well, in defense of the ultra-thin fonts, they look much better on a handheld’s pixel-starved but crystal-clear LCD than on the blurry average Genesis-era TV (i.e., that hand-me-down from the 1980’s).

Wait...what are "Casualities"?

I like the latter font better -- mainly for the non-ridiculously-sized zeros.
