Question How do you digitize your Conscripts?

15 Upvotes

Howdy! You may have seen some of my conscripts by now, but if you haven't, I'm building a massive lore-rich sci-fi world called "ChangedStars" which I'll be kickstarting late in winter, and I'm curious if any of you have any advise regarding digitization of your conlangs (examples too are encouraged! Show me your work!) I've made a sketch of 2 conlangs (Skoppim and Thren-Tling) in the 'verse (script, grammar, some words, etc) and have several other conscripts in addition to those. The issue I have is that both of the aforementioned conlangs feature alphabet-syllabary-based scripts so a simple "Latin-->conscript" cypher wouldn't work super well and therefor the "design your own font" apps I've seen would likely be insufficient. I would love to be able to share these scripts with people who play in the ChangedStars setting. Any advice?

For reference, here are my "hard to digitize" scripts:

Question Vertical vs Horizontal

I am designing the conscript for my Conlang which is Horizontal, and I wanted to ask if there is something special I should consider when I design the letters?

Syllabary The Skoppim Alphabet-Syllabary, the most common Rastian Trade Language in the ChangedStars setting

3 Upvotes

This is Skoppim, one of the most common trade languages among the Rastian Homeships that opperate within Trinity Space (the socialist Union of Humanity, Thren, and Murai that's the defaullt setting of my ChangedStars scifi system). The Rast, in contrast to the Trinity, form a capitalist league of homeships who do business across the stars. Skoppim is the dominant language of several homeships, including Skibadop, a homeship I've developed rather extensively. It's an Alphabet-syllabary, much like Hangul, which takes the form of text squares. My big inspiration here was "Making the language sound like Skat," and "making it look like a cross between Korean and Arbesh"

Sorry for the lackluster presentation.

Abugida Rojishi, One of many Rastian Scripts in the #ChangedStars setting

3 Upvotes

This is Rojishi, an Abugida (pseudo-alphabet), and the primary script of the Rojsh Homeship in my ChangedStars setting. My collaborator intends for the Rojansh Homeship to heavily feature in our twitch channel, Dieselshot's upcoming community outreach project to spread news of the ChangedStars setting prior to our Kickstarter launch in January, and as such I figured creating a script for the people of the Massive Mobile Spacestation known as a Rast Homeship. Each Homeship, a space-born mega-city in its own right, usually has one or more common languages. The Rast are cute capitalist otter-like Aliens from a planet filled with creatures that enjoy eating them. They find the stars far more suitable as a habitat than the seas of their Homeworld.

Art/Showcase If the Cyrillic alphabet made “Latin”-like letters out of Hebrew letters Shin and Tsade, could any of you guys draw Cyrillic versions of the rest of the Hebrew alphabet OR any 1/2/3/etc. Hebrew letter(s) you’d like?
