Apple Kid Typeface
Apple Kid is a pixelated sans-serif inspired by the 1995 Super Nintendo cult classic Earthbound.
This was a personal project completed in July 2019. While playing Earthbound, I was drawn to the in-game font, which felt surprisingly lively for 16-bit type. After recreating the letter set, I used the Illustrator plugin Fontself to form a usable typeface.
I put together a small 16-page specimen booklet to demonstrate its use in print, which you can flip through here: https://www.flipsnack.com/ourlittlecult/apple-kid-specimen-booklet.html
The .OTF file is available to download – feel free to try it out!
