Decided late last night I should make a pixel font that resembles Latin Textura manuscripts, scribal abbreviations and all.

Coming up with rules in the font to automatically use the abbreviations was pretty fun. Making vector versions of all the letters was not.

I finished the font! You can download it on OpenGameArt for use in your own projects:

In addition to just looking cool (because Textura is always cool), it can optionally (and if your art program supports it) automatically apply a bunch of abbreviations and variants to make Latin text look more authentic.

@nauris They are ._. So far they've served for multiple kinds of stone, painted wood, paper, plaster, roof tiles, the sky and everything else in the far background, iron, wallpaper, bricks, mud... I worry that the game will end up being too beige and blue overall xP I don't *think* it will, but these just keep popping up.

This project was meant to be me being maximalist and not caring about how many colours I use, but I keep making tiles with these beige and blue colours, oh no.
