DUNGEON.mode
DUNGEON.mode is a retro textmode font for the rogue in all of us.
TEXTMODE?
Textmode is an art form where pictures are made out of text characters, often in a purpose-made mono font, like so:
┌♥♡♡─┐┌──┐
│∙∙∙⟏││†3│
│∙☠∙∙││⛨1│
│∙∙@∙││⚱⚱│
│∙∙∙∙││⚷⚷│
└────┘└──┘
┌────────┐
│you take│
│-1♥ dmg!│
└───────▼┘

ABOUT THIS PACK
In designing this font, I wanted to capture look & feel of retro terminal typefaces, but with a fantasy dungeon crawler spin to it.
To that end, two variants are offered:
- dungeon-437, a fully code page 437 compliant ASCII version, for the DOS purists out there;
- dungeon-mode, a more textmode-ready charset, with a fuller icon-like and tileset-adjacent glyph selection.

This is actually so sick, thanks for making this.
I used this font in my 2D shooter and mentioned you in the credits! Thank you so much <3 — you can check out the game here: https://valgguk.itch.io/alangame
Nice! Glad you like it!
Is this being released under a cc0 License ? or something else ?
Yes, CC0. You can check it under the "more information" section of the project.
Thx
this is great! this would be perfect for my terminal roguelike game
Thanks! Be sure to shoot me a link to the game when it's available!
yeah no i just realised that that wouldn't work since i can't really force people to pick this font
i'd have to make it outside of the terminal and just make it *look* like the terminal
This font will be suitable and perfect for retro games
This project is elegant and innovative
This is neat!!
Epic! Love the idea!
Thank you cr.os!
Oh heck yes!
