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.
