Welcome

This site gathers bitmap/bytemap fonts, saved and extracted mostly from games and demoscene, drawn and pixelated by various graphicians and artists, lost and forgotten in time.

You can find hundreds upon hundreds of those fonts here, either as pictures or, better yet, in a file format that allows basic (macro)typography. Feel free to browse the list, filtered either by initial letter of the font name (above right) or more specifically (via form above, left).

In closer look

A font is a set of characters. Bitmap is a map of bits (picture). A bitmap font is a set of pictures as its proprietary characters.

We can further distinguish pixelated/image fonts with just two colours (black or white, foreground or background) and fonts drawn with more than one colour. Let's call these bytemap fonts.

The fonts published here are of several origins:

  • pictures gathered by Daniel Guldkrans
  • font art from the archive of Carsten Cumbrowski
  • bytemap fonts of the 8-bit scene – mostly Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum
  • bytemap fonts of the 16-bit scene – mostly Atari ST and Amiga
  • other fonts from various sources (old demos, intros, etc.) converted by me

Wherever I could get a grip of the name of the author, I mentioned them in the file description. A lot of these fonts are many years old, some even decades. Font that were part of some games are now so called abandonware. I'm going to assume in good faith that all bitmap fonts shown here are freeware.

If you happen to be an author of a certain font presented here that you do not wish to be available, then feel free to contact me and I will make quick amendments to remove it from this website.

Similarly, if you happen to find an error in the description of any font, please, tell me what to fix in the discussion below each font.

Thanks in advance!

What's in it for me?

Let this site be helpful to you if:

  • you are a graphic designer seeking for some cool bitmap fonts
  • you are a programmer and would like to implement the BMF file-format
  • you'd like to have a pic of your text drawn by one of the fonts

Enjoy!

2024-10-27 23:25:20General discussionadminCurrently, every font has at least one external link. And I will try to maintain it this way.
Fonts of unknown origin are linked (as images) to some of the image servers.
2024-09-28 00:27:16 adminLetters other than D,U,N,E recycled by me.
I took a liberty to make a tiny change - curiously, the height of the letters in the title is not the same - it varies between 17 and 18 pixels. I made it all 18 pixels tall.
If you're trying this font out, try to ramp up the extra letter spacing.
2024-09-26 17:53:01 adminOther letters recycled from the game's splashscreen/logo. It took me so long to finish it. Also, it should be a 16-color image but somewhere along the way it got more colors. Lastly, I didn't include the bolt which was a part of the logo, maybe I will.
2024-09-24 22:08:15 adminNot much is known of fonts named like this. This one comes from an file archive named "paradogs.zip". And the file date is 1993-07-27 (so you know).
2024-09-24 00:18:39 adminBomb Jack cracktro came in 1990 but the font was used at least two years earlier.
2024-08-31 19:49:01 adminDifferent version seen in 3D Screen by Legacy of the Phaleon GigaDemo - https://demozoo.org/productions/168938/
2024-08-31 19:02:01 adminI'ma assume Pixelkiller made this font.
2024-08-27 09:07:12 adminThis font could have been done by Bonus, Carnera, Duri-17, Exterminator, Rex, Roadwarrior, Shadowmaster, or Slimer - these were the graphicians of the project.
2024-06-26 20:10:59 adminThis font has big and small letters swapped. There's a couple other fonts like that, though not that many.
2024-06-19 19:24:49General discussionadminI've added a new tag – ?tag=lowercase for fonts having [all or majority of] minuscule/lowercase letters in lieu of uppercase letters.
