Extended information
This is Arctik. It's a brand new, custom-made font, available in 9 weights, and best of all, it's completely free to use!
Arctik takes inspiration from both humanist and neo-grotesque fonts, bringing the warm classiness of fonts like Helvetica or Rail Alphabet, with a more modern tinge, with inspiration from Roboto, and Frutiger. The font appears human, and hand-crafted, with small irregularities in the thickness and curves adding to the font's character.
Arctik includes a full upper and lowercase alphabet, with numbers, full punctuation, and some extras. It's available in 9 weights, all included in the zip package, alongside the promotional artwork and some advice and information on licensing.
Commercial use is permitted for Arctik 3, the other weights require permission before being used.
Enjoy the font!

Hey!
If you're reading this, then you've downloaded Arctik, my new font!
I've spent about 6 months making this, and it's really nice to know
that it's being used in people's lives.
Firstly, for anyone having trouble installing, on Vista/7+ versions
of Windows, you simply have to right click on the font, and install.
You can even select all the fonts at the same time, it makes the
process much quicker. I can't help anyone on a mac or earlier
versions of windows, although a quick Google should solve any issues.
The font itself contains nine different weights, Arctik 1, 1.5 and so
on. All the fonts are covered by a Creative Commons license, meaning
you can use it in your own personal work, and even produce derivatives,
providing you ask me first (I won't bite!) and share in the same way
I have. For any commercial or profit making use, we'd need to discuss
some kind of deal or agreement, and this is covered by the font
license. The exception to this is Arctik 3, which you can use for
commercial use without any deal (although it'd be really nice to know
where it's being used!), but like the others, you have to share alike.
Derivatives can vary in any style, but please don't try to emulate the
smaller and larger weights from Arctik 3 for commercial use, as this
goes against the license agreement. Additionally, if you're making a
derivative from a derivative, then you should also let all the
designers who've contributed know.
It's been a pleasure making this, and I hope you enjoy it!
If for any reason you'd like to follow the things I do in the future,
I have a few websites/portfolios/blogs going, checking them out would
be most wonderful.
