#splatfont

HEY. do you remember when Nintendo made a typeface for Splatoon 3's Side Order and never elaborated? It looks a little bit like this:

Well I went over to the lovely @splatoongamefiles and asked for the font file. They gave me the file, all nice and simple, BUT it was completely unfinished... I really liked it, so I finished it myself!!! (files and images under the cut <3<3)

i cant have normal interactions

its time for the second beta version of the Splatoon 3 Side Order incomplete font!!!! again as a .tff file, and its gonna be here if anybody wants to play with it :)

heres what it looks like at the moment!!! (ignore those 3 russian characters they're just there for reference)

patch notes going from version 0.1 to 0.2 i suppose:

added uppercases B C R T Y Z

added lowercases k v x (which means that lowercases is complete!!!)

added punctuation marks ! , . : ; ? @

fixed heights of p, q, f and r

c has been adjusted and redone

O has been widened and rounded more to differentiate it from the number 0

added grave and acute accent characters for both e and E

notes and things that will NEED to change for the full release:

k needs to be figured out for real this time

Q and L are not going to stay as O and r

the я needs to be removed from R

letter spacing needs to be done (will be the last thing i do!!)

and lastly, here's the link to download beta v0.2 :)

the alphabet is complete!! all letters, lowercases AND uppercases have been completed!!!! YIPPEEEE assuming i dont decide to suddenly any of them they all look like this :) im pretty happy with how the g turned out just thought u guys should know >:)

if anything, the M and W will probably change bc they both look a bit silly atm but i guess ill cross that bridge when i come to it!!!!

but NOW since that there are 0 letters remaining i get to start counting down the punctuation marks and symbols... yay...

i'll also add the letters with accents when i get bored of making real glyphs bc adding accents is relatively easy (for the most part)

ANYWAY...

it's been a while since i last did anything for this but now its summer holidays and its began to consume my mind again!!!!

i am struggling so much with what to do for k and x... with k i have so many ideas but none of them look right and don't fit the typeface but with x i just have nothing... whats there currently is just a placeholder

sobbing...

in happier news i added the @ symbol and it looks sick as hell as well as a v that looks ok-ish

i also added capital Y and Z but i think the Y is gonna have to change in the future, it just looks a lil weird

ive also just been looking back on how i started and im actually like proud of the progress i made?? like i looked at my first post in this 'project' and i was completely inept at the program and i only knew how to copy, paste, rotate, and flip but now i know how to actually make the letters and :)

other than that tho i updated the x-heights of p, q, f and c in accordance with my 'patch notes', i added a little line for R so that now it looks more like an R but is still just a place holder, and i also started making some of the characters with accents bc the acute accent and umlaut are present on an e and a respectively and it gives me a false sense of progress so YAY. i havent done the letter spacing for each character/glyph since ive decided ill do it at the end as the final touch

but it now means i've completed that h and j that i was having problems with!!!!!!!! and ive also done m and w by putting 2 n's together :)))

making me feel very accomplished all of a sudden :,)

also made J and U and y!!!!
