SnailFont is a free and open-source perfectly imperfect font suitable for pixel-based games and applications.

It features somewhat whimsical and tilted letters with very few straight lines or circles.

You can download it and try it out here!

These are the characters I have currently: (there are some tweaks that need to be made, the dots on the colon and the period are too big, the exclamation point is too short, the 'g' looks weird, the 'T' is too tilted, the lower zero on the percent sign is crazy weird, etc. I know it's supposed to be imperfect, but I don't want the imperfections to be distracting.)


This font is incomplete, I plan to tweak some of the existing characters slightly, and expand the current character set quite a bit. If anyone feels like helping, I'm writing some style guidelines for new characters.

The name comes from my other project, Attack of the Snails, which this font was made for Smile

Enjoy!
So is there anyway to install the file oncalc (yet)? Or is it just a proper computer font?

Currently, it's just a computer font, but I'm working on making it work with the calculator.
Nice, but you forgot to include some closing brackets like } and ] in the font, as well as @.

I know. I'm not quite done adding characters yet.
I plan to add most of the Basic Latin range, as well as Unicode versions of assorted chars used by the CE.

I'll be done with these characters soon, don't worry Smile

As for the guidelines I mentioned earlier, they are still in progress and will probably be ready by the end of the week. It'd be awesome if people could contribute characters when they are done.
"This" is my 100,000th word posted on Cemetech. Woot woot!

I have completed all of the printable characters in the Basic Latin range todayWell, actually, it was yesterday, but I only updated my webpage for it today. and you can (as always) check it out and download it on the webpage, which contains legacy versions for your enjoyment.
