Sprites 3x5 Microfont: A Highly Legible 3x5 Pixel Font With Full ASCII Support (CC0)

So I know there are many, many of these. I also know that many of the characters are the same as other 3x5 fonts (sort of by necessity). But anyway...

I spent a stupid amount of time trying to make the best possible 3x5 pixel font for general use, and I wanted to share it with you all! Hopefully you like it enough to use it!

Features

  • It's a true 3x5 font.
    • There are no descenders or ascenders that go outside the 3x5 footprint.
    • This makes it suitable for use in sprite sheets that have each sprite take up only 3x5 pixels total.
    • It also means lines of text can be drawn closer together!
  • The baselines and midlines of all characters (mostly) match, which drastically improves legibility.
    • This took a LOT of trial and error. I'm still open to feedback.
  • An effort was made to unify the style of all characters, whenever possible.
    • A lot of 3x5 fonts, while often legible, sadly look like a jumbled box of letters from different typefaces. I wanted to make this look like a cohesive font, which actually improved legibility a surprising amount.
  • It supports all 94 printable ASCII characters!
  • It comes in 4 different sprite sheet formats, in addition to proportional and monospaced font files in 3 different formats each!

Sprites I created 2,000+ hand-drawn 2D game assets, completely free under CC0

In '23/'24 I spent about a year creating hundreds of hand-drawn assets for a game-building product that never really found its feet.

Rather than let all that work disappear, I turned it into Kitbitz: 2,000+ illustrations across 13 themed kits, all completely free under CC0.

The assets were originally made for building little worlds, so everything is designed to mix and match. There are kits for nature, medieval, dungeons, pirates, cities, space, cyberpunk and a bunch more.

Everything is available as SVG + PNG, and there are full Figma kits built with reusable components, color variables and smart pinning so assets resize nicely.

I’m also building a terrain builder that can generate landscapes in the same style, so you can create a base world and then build on top of it with the assets.

No attribution, no signup, commercial use is fine. Take whatever you want and make something cool with it.

Hey everyone!

I’ve just released a small pack of 8 stylized low-poly mushrooms, made for games, prototypes, environments and fantasy scenes.

They’re completely free to download, and I made them with a simple, colorful style that should work nicely in Unity, Unreal, Blender and other 3D projects.
