Author's note

DarkByte font by GGBotNet is a free pixelated bitmap typeface. Every letter feels hewn from solid blocks, with small punched-out squares and stepped corners that create a gritty, arcade-meets-industrial vibe. The forms sit tight and heavy, locking words into bold bands that pop hardest on dark backgrounds and in high-contrast palettes.

Using DarkByte, titles snap with retro-tech energy—think game logos, stream overlays, synthwave posters, YouTube thumbnails, stickers, and HUD screens. This free font wants to be large; add a notch of letterspacing at smaller sizes to keep the grid crisp. For supporting text, pair it with a thin geometric sans or a clean monospace to let the chunky headlines breathe.
