Author's note

Golden Sun by David Fens is a free pixel font with tall, lean letters and the spare look of an early computer display. Its generous openings and unusually long vertical strokes give the type a light, wiry profile.

Designers working on retro technology or game culture will find it suited to title screens, event posters, and merchandise. The restrained weight keeps those projects from slipping into a bulky arcade style. Editorial features can use it as period computer graphics.

This font was used in the Game Boy Advance game Golden Sun. It was recreated because no original font file was available and was made with FontStruct, a free font maker.
