Author's note

Invaders from Space by Xero Harrison is a free pixel display font rooted in early arcade graphics. Its block-built letters have squared corners, abrupt stepped edges, and a deliberately low-resolution structure. Small alien figures share the same grid, turning the set into both lettering and game-themed imagery.

Arcade event posters are its clearest setting, where the lettering and invader icons establish the subject immediately. The compact pixel forms also suit game title cards, merchandise, and retro entertainment branding. It is most convincing when a project specifically refers to coin-operated science fiction games.
