Author's note

Hooge 06_55 by Craig Kroeger is a free bitmap pixel font with a crisp early-screen attitude. The letters are built from blunt square steps and roomy rectangular forms, giving it that stripped-back game UI and web graphic feel that still reads as deliberately digital rather than merely retro.

It fits naturally in game menus, app mockups, web badges, poster captions, and zine cover lines where a compact grid-made voice helps set the tone fast. As a free font from 2002, it also makes sense for title cards and short labels, since the simple repeated shapes keep the texture even and unmistakably pixel-based.
