so, I would really love to use some of these fonts (with attribution of course) as a replacement for a built in font in ROM-hack patch I’m working on, and just wanted to be sure that’s still ok to do based on the license. It’s a little different than just using it in a game I’m developing myself…and naturally i can’t just use the .ttf files as is, so I’ll need to convert them to an appropriate format. I read over the license and it SOUNDS like it’s alright, but just wanted to double check! Fantastic work on these regardless!
Is it the same Terminus as the default Linux console font? O_o Because I remember the Linux font being larger and less stylized.BTW, your fonts also look nice vectorized for higher res :D
Wow, I love how Seven Oh Ess and the lower case Jamma and Indie Modern turned out there.
Terminus was inspired by the visuals of computer screens from 80s movies. The name was just a play on "Terminal", I had no idea the Linux font had the same name!
I spent a lot of time tweaking the positioning of each character in the monospaced versions to get everything perfect but if you do buy the set and want any small changes making just let me know.
These fonts are awesome. I'm considering purchasing them.... but I'm not 100% sure on the style of my next game so I'm not sure if any of these are a fit. But they look really well made! I'm especially interested in pixel fonts with good kerning (non-mono).

Hi. Yes, that's covered by the license, glad you like the fonts!
Many many thanks for this. I especially like the Glimmer fonts. Well done!
These are wonderful! I used the Centurion Bold in my GameJam game. Thanks! -- https://xedindustries.itch.io/decaf-dungeon-a-boss-battle
I love the fonts, it would be very nice if they came as .pngs as well as the ttfs. Then they would be more versatile.
Yea, this would make them much more usable in Playdate's Pulp
I'll look in to this in a future update. In the meantime you can always use the monospaced versions of the fonts to put together your own PNG.

Tempted to grab the just because I need a monospaced pixel font. Turns out they are hard to come by!
