Author's note

ProtoSans35 by Roman Gornitsky is a free pixel font built from blunt, rectilinear strokes and open geometric forms. Its letters resemble early screen graphics, with hard corners and abrupt steps replacing conventional curves. The construction is spare and mechanical.

Technology and retro gaming are the clearest themes, making it useful for arcade posters, electronic music artwork, and interface graphics. It also suits merchandise and event branding because the block-built letters can function like small pieces of pixel art.
