Robot!Head is a free comic-techno display font with a homemade robot feel. The letters are tall, boxy, and a little awkward on purpose, mixing narrow uprights with squared bowls and uneven crossbars that make the whole font feel playful rather than sleek.
It suits poster titles, game logos, zine covers, sticker graphics, and packaging that wants a simple sci-fi joke instead of hard futurism. As a free font, it works best in short words and headline settings, where those off-kilter rectangular forms and lanky rhythm have room to do the talking.

Description
Contemporary sans serif design, Arial contains more humanist characteristics than many of its predecessors and as such is more in tune with the mood of the last decades of the twentieth century. The overall treatment of curves is softer and fuller than in most industrial style sans serif faces. Terminal strokes are cut on the diagonal which helps to give the face a less mechanical appearance. Arial is an extremely versatile family of typefaces which can be used with equal success for text setting in reports, presentations, magazines etc, and for display use in newspapers, advertising and promotions.
