Hard Light Regular Font
Author's note
Hard Light by Tobias Sommer is a free pixel display font built from squared strokes and abrupt right-angle turns. The letters have an old computer-terminal silhouette, with broken joins, stepped edges, and unusually tall proportions that make the forms look like rigid panels assembled from rows of small rectangular blocks.
Its block construction can echo grids, circuit diagrams, and low-resolution game graphics. That recurring digital motif suits arcade branding, electronic music posters, game interfaces, and technology merchandise, letting the lettering become part of the screen-based imagery rather than a neutral caption.
