Author's note

Troglodyte Pop by Graham Meade is a free retro-futurist display font with a chunky, space-age attitude. The letters feel broad and modular, mixing rounded rectangular forms with sharp cutaway corners, while the star motif pushes the whole design toward comic sci-fi and pop signage rather than straight techno.

It works well on poster headlines, arcade-inspired branding, album covers, title cards, and packaging where a free font can bring in that playful late-20th-century future. Use it for short words, logo-style lockups, or monograms when you want the letters to do more than spell - the star cuts and blocky curves give even brief settings a built-in emblem quality.
