Author's note

Octohedron by Neale Davidson of Pixel Sagas is a free geometric sign font built around faceted, shield-like frames. Each symbol sits inside an angular polyhedron, with solid and open forms creating a crisp system of numbered, lettered, and directional markers.

Its enclosed emblems suit game interfaces and map graphics, while the hard-edged construction gives merchandise a technical insignia look. Posters can use the symbols as coded labels or recurring graphic devices rather than ordinary text. Compass markings and numbered badges connect these applications with navigation, puzzles, tabletop gaming, and science-fiction control panels.
