Gaiatype font

Extended information

Gaiatype is a generously spaced sans-serif pixel font recreation based on the original main text font appearing in the SNES video game Terranigma, known as Tenchi Souzou in Japan, developed by Quintet and released by Enix in 1995.

This font includes the full set of Japanese hiragana and katakana characters appearing in the Japanese version of the game and many additional characters designed to match the spirit and style of the original font design.

The Terranigma typeface is one variant of Quintet's trademark font used in all games of their SNES RPG trilogy (the first two games being Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia). It features the widest spacing of all three variants, and if you're interested in another one you might want to take a look at Codeman38's Illusion of Gaia recreation, called "Lunchtime Doubly So".

To recreate the original in-game appearance of this font, I recommend to choose font sizes that are multiples of 16pt and avoid any anti-aliasing or other font smoothing methods.
