Author's note

AlphaPixels by Regina Calhau of FSI FontShop International GmbH is a free geometric pixel font with an unusually spare, linear build. Its letters combine upright strokes with square modules and open gaps, recalling early computer graphics without the dense, blocky mass common to many bitmap faces.

An indie game studio or retro-tech label could use it for branding, interface graphics, and merchandise, since the skeletal forms resemble characters assembled on a low-resolution screen. It feels technical yet deliberately unfinished. That stripped-down electronic construction also suits music artwork and publishing centered on coding, arcade culture, or contemporary experimental digital art projects.
