arcade game typography: the first animated fonts in colour

Do you want to see the world’s first mul­ti-coloured and an­i­mat­ed font?

 

Ac­tu­al­ly, three notes:

1.
The game was nev­er published.

2.
It’s the first that I know of, not definite.

3.
It’s re­pro­duced as SVG OTF, and I can not con­trol each letter’s an­i­ma­tion tim­ing, which is why it ap­pears to be out of sync.‪

 

Ar­cade Game Ty­pog­ra­phy: The Art of Pix­el Type, my first book, is now available!

Rec­om­mend­ed for de­sign­ers, gamers, any­one who wants some­thing nice to look at in their toi­let, or any­one who com­plains 1000 UPM is not high enough for type design.‬

Thanks to Thames & Hud­son for pub­lish­ing, Dar­ren Wall for or­gan­is­ing every­thing, and Leo Field for the graph­ic design!

 

Your very own copy can be snagged here and a bunch of oth­er places.

I will be talk­ing more about all of this – and up­dat­ing an ob­scure de­sign of ty­pog­ra­ph­er Paul Ren­ner (1878–1956) – on RADíO FLoMM this season.

 

But right now, I’m hav­ing fun de­sign­ing this 4‑pixel x‑height us­ing my Pix­el Pen tool (avail­able via GlyphsPlu­g­in Man­ag­er)
