THIS FONT DOES NOT CONDONE THE EXISTENCE OF ANYTHING BELOW THE BASELINE.

IT IS I: THE MYSTERIOUS HACKER WHO ONCE BROKE THE SITE BY REDIRECTING EVERY USER TO THE RICKROLL VIDEO ON YOUTUBE, BACK AGAIN WITH ANOTHER FONT!

THIS TIME, IT’S A COMPRESSED FONT WHERE NOTHING GOES BELOW THE BASELINE. (THE BASELINE IS THE WORLD’S MOST PROFOUND AND INEXPLICABLE BARRIER WHICH MAY NEVER BE CROSSED.)

FEATURES

• KERNING!
• A QUESTION MARK WITH SCOLIOSIS!
• A Q THAT SNEEZED SO HARD THAT ITS TAIL FELL OFF!
• NOTCHES CUT OUT OF E, F, J, T, AND Ƃ TO FIT NICELY WITH V, W, AND Y!
• INK TRAPS TO COMPENSATE FOR THE THICKNESS OF THE STROKES!
• ALL NUMERALS IN THE NUMBERBET ARE MONOSPACED, SO THEY CAN BE USED IN A DYNAMIC INTERFACE WITHOUT JUMPING AROUND!

A FUTURISTIC LETTER “A”!!

MY FUNNY LETTER “K”!!

AN OVER-EXTENDED EM DASH!!

WEIRD UPSIDE-DOWN CYRILLIC LETTERS THAT NOBODY’S HEARD OF!!

IT’S ALL HERE IN MY NEW FONT — ALDRON.

I THOUGHT THAT THIS FONT NEEDED MORE ATTENTION THAN THE ONE THAT I CLONED IT FROM, WHICH WAS MADE IN A COUPLE OF HOURS. AS WELL AS ADDING THE LATIN AND GREEK ALPHABETS, I MADE A FEW ADDITIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CYRILLIC LETTERS AS WELL AS SPACING. AND UNLIKE ITS PREDECESSOR, THIS ONE IS KERNED.

IT WAS QUITE A DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE, ACTUALLY, ADAPTING A CYRILLIC FONT FOR LATIN INSTEAD OF VICE VERSA.

MADE THIS WHILE WATCHING DR. DOLITTLE II ON T.V.. I WAS INSPIRED BY THE ELUSIVE FONT THAT I SEE EVERYWHERE IN VIDEOS OF RUSSIA AND BELARUS.

THIS IS MY THIRD AND FINAL ENTRY TO THE COMPETITION. MY LAST ENTRY WAS GOING TO BE SOMETHING ELSE, BUT THAT GOT TAKEN DOWN FOR RICKROLL-RELATED REASONS.

HERE’S MY VISION FOR THE FUTURE: EVERYBODY USING THE CYRILLIC ALPHABET! NAH, JUST KIDDING. IT WORKS WELL FOR RUSSIAN, BUT IT WOULD BE TERRIBLE FOR ENGLISH.

MY MOST LEGIBLE FONT YET: E.

MY GOAL FOR THIS WAS TO MAKE A COMPLETE GROTESQUE FONT IN ONE DAY, AND I THINK THAT I ACCOMPLISHED THAT. WHEN IN DOUBT: PIXEL FONT!

This was featured inside my font: Pelagic Octopus.

Some alternative (less intrusive) forms are found in the capital section.

Use a size of thirteen point in order for the pixels to match up.

THIS IS BASED ON MY HANDWRITING. NOT MY REGULAR HANDWRITING — THAT DOESN’T ALLOW FOR LOWER-CASE LETTERS; SO WHENEVER I NEED TO WRITE SOMETHING WITH LOWER-CASE LETTERS (SUCH AS IN EXAMS.), I USE THIS STYLE.

I KNOW THAT IN PLACES IT LOOKS A BIT BROKEN. BUT AT THE SMALL SIZES OF BULK TEXT, IT SHOULDN’T BE TOO NOTICEABLE; IT’S NOT REALLY DESIGNED AS A DISPLAY FONT.

AND I ALSO KNOW THAT SOME SERIFS AND STROKES AREN’T EXACTLY COMMONPLACE (SEE THE UPPER SERIFS ON THE LETTER: “u”). IT’S JUST HOW MY HANDWRITING TURNED OUT.

INTENDED LANGAUGE SUPPORT

• ENGLISH

• RUSSIAN

• TE REO MĀORI

“WHAKAITI” IS A MĀORI WORD MEANING “TO MAKE SMALL”. IT’S ROUGHLY PRONOUNCED: “ɸɑkɑiti”.
