Hello there,

I got my self a copy of your font. Looks great! But is there a way to use the font at 18px?

Hi!! I'm glad you like it. Pixel fonts (like pixelart in general) only looks "sharp" at specific sizes. For this font, you can use 12pt/24pt etc.

I could draw a custom bigger version if necessary!

AHHHH!!!!

First of all - thanks for the fast response! I’ve been mislead by the description of the font at the top of the page.

“Compass is a classic, fantasy, 9px tall pixel font - now new and improved! TTF and PNG are included + Construct 3 SpriteFont data.”

I thought it would be scaled by the factor of 9. ;) Thanks for clarification.

Any advice on a nice font of yours, wich works great as a font for headlines with Compass? ;)

The font is used in a dark dungeoncrawler setting ;)

ah yes, sorry, "9px tall" refers to the cap height!

How big should your fantasy header font be? Maybe I have something in my wip folder 👀

The standard paragraph is 24px … mhh i dont know maybe around 36, 48 or 72 px?? ( I’m pretty unsure about the size)

That sounds huge for a pixel font, but maybe I'm misunderstanding - you can send an email to info@somepx.com if you want (with more data and possibly a screenshot), I'll see what I can do. 😉
