I said that I would post something creative at least once a week. That was more than two weeks ago or so. Well, in fact I was busy with my newest tutorial for AEtuts+ introducing Nuke to After Effects users, so you might want to check it out for. But those big projects aside there are always some small projects which are as interesting as versatile. This time: Another font.
The Backstory
Jürgen ‘Jot’ Brunner, a dear friend of mine is working more or less alone on a whole indie-game by himself, and since I played some betas so far I can say: I love its atmosphere and how its presented and I bet you’ll think so too if you know Braid. And Jot was looking for some 70′s computer-type font, that was technical yet playful. So I sat one afternoon in the café, caffeinated myself close to cardiac arrest and started painting glyphs.
I oriented myself on digital types, the old utopian computer fonts but tried to always keep the proportions a bit bell-bottomed. Lucky Jot liked as much as I the fact that all characters remained their hand-drawn imperfections and rhythm.
The Sample

Maybe you like it too, so feel free to download the TTF here. The hinting for smaller types is non-existent so better not use it for your love-letters or diary entries in 12 pt or smaller.
Donation & Download
The font is donation ware. So if you want to say a little “thanks” by donating money that would be really nice. Thank in advance!
