Author's note

Pixeldust Expanded by Andreas Nylin is a free bitmap font with a chunky arcade feel. The letters are built from big square pixels, but the repeated stepped corners and roomy gaps keep it from feeling blunt, giving the 2001 design a slightly playful, old-screen rhythm.

It fits naturally into retro game branding, poster titles, zine covers, flyer headers, and title cards where a blocky digital voice makes sense. As a free font, it also works for short monograms or logo experiments, because the expanded pixel shapes make even a few letters feel bold and graphic.
