Author's note

Pacmania by Neale Davidson is a free cartoon display font with oversized geometric capitals and an unmistakable arcade-game streak. Broad black shapes are sliced by white channels, circular cutouts, and playful notches, giving each letter the look of a tiny maze or game-board obstacle.

Designers working in retro gaming and youth entertainment will find it suited to arcade posters, game title screens, and themed event graphics. The eccentric letter construction can also turn merchandise lettering into part of the artwork, especially when maze paths, tokens, or simple game icons continue its visual cues. Its clearest audience is anyone drawn to cheerful arcade nostalgia.

This typeface is based on the original logos of the Pac-Man franchise from Namco Inc. It includes a full alphabet, the euro symbol, and extended punctuation.
