Impact-8 Font

by aDotInSpace

[Click to Play]

This is my attempt at translating the popular font Impact into a low-res version, covering P8SCII characters 16 to 153. All characters have a width of 5 pixels and a height of 7 pixels. A few characters also have a descender height of one pixel.

The font snippet can be copied by pressing X while playing the cartridge. The snippet can also be found in the source code, and right here:

If there's anything in the font that you would like to change, you can edit the character set in the sprite sheet. It automatically generates a new snippet that you can copy after running the cartridge again.
