Font crit

For long time I've been looking for a 'standard' pixel font that I could use for most of my flash needs. There's plenty of these around, but I've been having problem finding something really good when I start digging. I wanted something that would look both edgy-techy and kind of soft. Something like FFF Raxel that G94 use on most of their productions, but a little roundier.
I like http://mimiml.com/ fonts a lot, they're modern classics, but Craig Kroeger says there's little chance he'll have the time to add CE character sets.
So I decided to make my own type set from scratch. Here goes sample text of what I've done so far: http://komercja.com/flukst/
What do you think?

Haven't decided yet what to do with it. It's still at an early development stage. It looks nice, but has legibility issues, you have to concentrate in order to read it. Letters are 'swinging' in a way, but I'm afraid that when I straighten them out they'll make the font look ordinary.
Anyway, it seems like I'll have to start a font-family

Wait.. the font G94 use is not Raxel, but it's the closest match I found. Probably custom work, unless someone can name this face. I love the way it adds definition to their work.
And thanks guys for comments, you keep me going on with this work.
