hi all,

i hope you find these fonts usefull for your free projects.

you can use these fonts in the PUZZLE COMPO. which has already started. the compo restricition I placed on the fonts has been lifted. and you can now use them for ANY compo's that TGC may run.
read on.

they are sorted into individual zips, each containing a few variations of the font. they are properly spaced and in ascii order to make them easy to grab, they are in BMP format at a resolution of 1280X1024 with individual letter sizes of 128X128 pixels. this makes them easy to scale down and still retain the detail that gets lost during JPEG compression. the black backdround makes them usefull for ghosting and transparency. remember to get the zips, don't use the low quality screenies. i think that's 100 fonts in total.


if you want to use them or any derivitives you may have made from them in a commercial product, you'll have to get my permission FIRST. and you cannot use them for anything other than projects that are created using TGC products. it would be nice (but not a requirement) to get a mention in the credits of anything you make using them. I think the terms are reasonable.

thanks, geecee3.

on with the fonts, lad.

baggers,

glad you likes them, they are fun to make and very usefull for things like scrollers and score displays. (well that's what i use them for, but if you do something interesting with them let me know!
i'd love to see some modified versions too.) if they are good enough, i'll add them to the collection with a credit to the modifier.

cheerz, geecee3.

Thems some great fonts you've made there geecee3 and it gives me a chance to ask something that's been bugging me for a while.

How do you use images such as these to display variables in your games. You can't just say "if score=10 show sprite such and such" for every possible score there could be so what do you do. Thanks in advance and sorry for going slightly off-topic.

Hi all!
Great fonts, geecee3!
I've written this little function to show a given game score from a given x,y position backwards (to keep right alignment), with a given text width in pixels and where images loaded are 100+n, where 100 is 0 and 109 is 9.
Hope to have been useful

Geecee, Thank you very much for the fonts. All of the font in my game is from this download package. My game can be found here, http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=53875&b=8

Tell me what you think, and do you like how I used your fonts?

lookin' very retro dude.

I'm glad they are proving usefull, if theres any demand for a new colection in the future i'd be only too happy to make some more. I made then because i couldn't find any at the right resolution for my scrollers. and just got a bit carried away, I never really thought about making a collection, it just sorta happened that way.
