New Font: BigBlok
A great many years ago when working in game publishing I had a real fascination with doing titles in a strong, super-bold font called Bolt Bold. The truth is I rather overused it. In doing some research I find it on more than a dozen different game books I wrote in the early 80s, all quite collectable and out of print today.
New Font: Big Show
We’ve been working hard on developing a new package of fonts based on classic Letterpress designs and that package is almost complete. Rounding out the collection is our new Big Show font, which is a kind of a swanky 1960s take on the classic circus fonts of the 1890s which have come to be associated with the wild west era. It has the giant block serifs of that style, but rounder lines which give it a look that seems more 1960s than 1890s.
Big Show has a full uppercase character set, plus a set of variant characters with more distressed versions of the main character set. It also has numbers and punctuation. The overall effect is rough, but attractive and it creates a strong impression.
You can download and try a demo version of Big Show, in TrueType format for Mac or PC. You can also order the full version of Big Show online for immediate download: BUY IT NOW.
