Mystery Font

In the station, we have a variety of text- signs for depos, etc.

With two exceptions we will not use English / Roman characters for this

Most of the text is not important to read; reading it will distract from the visuals, we mainly need it as a visual element, not a literal one. Thus we can make up fonts!

Style ideas:

English/Roman

There are a couple of exceptions to this - We need to read gilgamesh's name in two places:
  • Her Dogtags need to have her name in human readable form (maybe both!)
  • The book title needs gilgamesh in human readable form.

Numbers

Numbers should be Arabic numerals i.e.: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Add your own language

It is encouraged to add words in the artists' own language as occasional elements ( a word here or there, graphitti, other...)
