[New HiScore] Pixel Art Font + Bitmap
A downloadable asset pack
New HiScore is a pixel art typeface that captures the nostalgic aesthetic of early arcade games, when hardware and software limitations required bold, blocky characters. With a thick outline giving it volume and tridimensionality, it's a great font for texts that are supposed to stand out on a screen and feels right at home in a high-score leaderboard or a "Press Start" screen.

The font contains both upper and lowercase and supports a large variety of glyphs, accents and Cyrillic. The full list of supported characters can be seen bellow:
| ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
0123456789!”#$%&’()*+,-./:;< = >?@[\]^_`{|}~¡¢©®´º¿

Note: the font was intentionally designed with a negative kerning value (the spacing between characters) so the outlines overlap when characters are paired, making for a better visual. It is primarily designed as a display font, ideal for texts that need to stand out from the rest, like titles, buttons and call-to-action.
After purchase you will get to download a True Type Font (.ttf) file of the font along with PNGs containing all its glyphs. The installation of the font can be done by just executing the TTF file in most operational systems.
There are also bitmap files for the font: FNT, XML and TXT files with corresponding glyph atlas PNGs. The included PNG files are just samples, feel free to change the images to any style that would better suit your projects by using one of them as a starting point.

does it have Bitmap?
It doesn't at the moment but it's a great idea.
I'll add the XML and FNT files and the corresponding TXT and glyph atlas PNG, is there anything else you would like to see?
BMT & ATLAS PNG WOULD BE GREAT AS YOU MENTIONED. LOOKING FORWARD TO IT SINCE THE GAME ENGINE I USE IS BETTER WITH BITMAP. THANK YOU!
I just added the bitmap files and 4 PNGs with simple style variations for the characters.
I have worked with bitmap fonts only a couple times so there may be issues, if you run into any just let me know and I'll work on fixing them ASAP :)
Hey there, nice work on the font. I noticed some missing characters in the characters-new-hi-score.png and characters-new-hi-score(200%).png files: period and underscore, in case you find time to update those.
It's pretty nice.
Thank you!
