I developed the main shapes over six months ago, even posted them here once (and promised some people a release coming soon). Since then I've been moving a pixel or two from time to time in my evenings, still not fully satisfied with the result.
Here it is:
http://komercja.com/flukst/f2.ht…I will appreciate any comments/advice on the shapes and legibility.
I'm not sure about the shape of 'R' and if 'z' isn't too wide.An older version:

Very nice, I like the soft corners, will work well with Neo, which is a nice coincidence as I'm finishing a logo using Neo at the mo! so you gonna mail it to me?

I really like it. Seems to read really well when reversed out, but I guess you can say that about alot of pixel fonts.
I would love a copy. Where can I get it from?

Are you thinking of doing some other cuts of it too, and what about some different point sizes?

Good work Dude,
For some reason the WOrd extra in the second paragraph looks odd. I was looking out for the r and think it looks odd in this word. It looks fine in the others. I think it's the a next to it. maybe tighten that up a bit
as far as the z goes, at first i thought it was wide. but I thnk that was your powers of sugestion.
it a cool font

Thanks for the coments.
There'll be regular, extended, then later bold, bold extended. I have tried to sketch a smaller size with nice results, so it's very likely to happen.
I am thinking of a free demo letters+digits only version and selling the full sets at myfonts.com at a reasonable price.

I want to design a font.
I've dabbled in the past with letter forms and fonts based around riggid rules before but never put together a workable font.
Have you designed any others?

I want it !

ok...my eyes started jumping up and down on the page and made me dizzy, this is only happening with the Capitalized fonts near the bottom.
it feels like 'whip-its'

Very nice work..

Very nice work!
I do think the A is a bit narrow.

Really nice. Normally when someone presents a font it's something larger that looks like so many others.
This one is good, althoughit seems just a slight bit tight - maybe with tracking adjusted when using it it would open up some.

doh!
I hoped nobody would say this ..
A is problematic in this font. If I extend it by 1px in width it loses its nice sharp top. Give it 2px and it's too wide.

ok, here's the old narrow 'A' version:

Let me know whenever it's finished so I can get a copy. It's looking quite nice :)
- shaft0
But what about the new A's? :)
- Antonelli0
I think I like this one the best

If you change the A, would you have to change the V as well?
- shaft0
V looks kinda ok, I mean it doesn't stand out as too narrow. Does it?
Isn't the new A too wide though?
Another thing, is R not ugly? :]
