I have been watching @noclipvideo documentaries for years – super cool to see them make one about a game I worked on! My colleagues at Lettermatic and I designed the fonts for the game, with the talented team at @Obsidian. Our full case study is here: lettermatic.com/custom/pentime…

monaspace.githubnext.com All code has been letters, on a grid, since the days of the teletype machine. How can we advance the state of the art to make code itself more expressive and powerful? How can we layer more meaning onto code?
In Pentiment there is a plot point about Brother Guy’s textura bookhand having a distinctive y tail because of his native Burgundian bastard script. We had @lettermatic_abc make a y variant for the textura font and Guy is the only character who uses it.

✨Some news✨ My career has taken a turn toward...typeface design. Surprise! I'm looking forward to sharing projects I work on in the future. For now, check out @lettermatic_abc's catalog of typefaces (students can license them for free!) lettermatic.com/fonts
This is a great overview of the process @lettermatic_abc went through to develop Pentiment’s fonts!

via my @eggplantshow co-host Laura, I was finally made aware of this *incredible* @lettermatic_abc deep dive into the typography in Pentiment Inspiring to see a dev team do this kind of interdisciplinary work, w/ such a deep respect for craft and history lettermatic.com/custom/pentime…
I'm very proud of Portamento, a new typeface designed for Google Developers by the team at @lettermatic_abc! It has monospace fonts, and proportional fonts, all within one family. 🔤🔠 I wrote an in-depth case study about the design process, here: lettermatic.com/custom/portame…
More than any other type family we’ve made, Portamento had a design process anchored in engineering. Naturally I didn’t want to get it wrong. Here’s the story of how I created a process that helped make sure I got it right: lettermatic.com/custom/portame…
NEW WORK: Fonts for Google Developers. We created Portamento, a flexible typeface with three subfamilies, and I’ve written an in-depth case study on the design process.

Really Sans Case Study by @rileycran – buff.ly/3Gd1n9o
A great use of Really Sans from @lettermatic_abc, on @haenschenhans's new website: 🔤 johannesecker.com
I recommend reading this case study if you are interested in: • Animated Bézier curves. • 1970s typography. • Fonts designed to work at specific point sizes. • A flexible sans serif typeface designed for contemporary use. lettermatic.com/custom/really-…
New: A case study about Really Sans – a typeface in two halves. In this case study you'll find info on the design process, historical inspiration, and a thorough look at the features of this very flexible typeface. lettermatic.com/custom/really-… 🎨🆕🪄🔤✍️
We have a new case study on the site today!
I remember sitting at my desk and the image crossed my mind, of making letters out of construction paper, with the positive and negative shapes cut out separately.
I’ve been watching the incredible PsychOdyssey series from @2PProductions and @DoubleFine, about the making of Psychonauts 2. It made me want to share a story of how we made the fonts for that game, that I haven’t really explained in-depth before. (Thread! 🧵)

@caucasiangarry Thank you! I'm glad you are enjoying it. If you're interested in the development of our fonts by @rileycran and @lettermatic_abc you can read their case study here: lettermatic.com/custom/pentime…

Finally started Pentiment after buying it during the Steam sales last year and I absolutely adore all of the work @lettermatic_abc put into designing the type and all of its little imperfections. Also love how big a part eating around a table with people plays in the daily cycle
@OskSta It's not exactly what you're asking about, but @rileycran / @lettermatic_abc 's work on the fonts for Pentament and the ligatures involved take fonts in technical directions that could tie into what you're asking about. lettermatic.com/custom/pentime…
@DakotaChambers @GitHubNext A large amount of credit should be given to the folks @lettermatic_abc, the foundry helping @GitHubNext with their expertise.
My brilliant coworkers at @lettermatic_abc created a superfamily of monospace fonts with @GitHubNext. They’re all on the same grid and work seamlessly with each other. In particular check out Texture Healing. This feature gives wide letters like m and w more space to breathe.
monaspace.githubnext.com All code has been letters, on a grid, since the days of the teletype machine. How can we advance the state of the art to make code itself more expressive and powerful? How can we layer more meaning onto code?
Congrats @lettermatic_abc! The texture trick is genius
If it is an extremely cool type project, you can be sure @rileycran / @lettermatic_abc are behind it

All this wouldn't be possible without the incredible team at @lettermatic_abc - and their infinite patience for all of our crazy ideas!

Nothing would technologically prevent it. In fiction, the type was developed by Marie, Magdalene’s mother (hence, Druckeryn). Stylistic choices were made by the typographer at @lettermatic_abc who designed it with that in mind.
@jesawyer @lettermatic_abc Love it. Curious to know if there is a similar story to Magadlene's i's and j's star-shaped dots? I don't think that would've been on early metal typefaces?
In Pentiment there is a plot point about Brother Guy’s textura bookhand having a distinctive y tail because of his native Burgundian bastard script. We had @lettermatic_abc make a y variant for the textura font and Guy is the only character who uses it.
Tell me a tiny detail in a game you're very proud of! In Affordable Space Adventures, at one point, a shockwave is so strong it cracks the Wii U GamePad (which in the fiction of the game is the ship's computer). The crack is permanent and stays for the rest of the campaign.
@jesawyer @lettermatic_abc I absolutely love the characterization through font choice in this game. I want to use this game in my classroom.
@rileycran @jesawyer Wow I am just drowning in the exact sort of material I wanted to have access to before opting to write a script where I feel a strong need to gush about this game's font work and how it adds to the game
@rileycran @jesawyer Incredibly awesome, bravo to the entire team there! Your effort and passion shines through.
