Special Glyphs

Please see the included glyphs.json file for all the relevant glyphs in the font. It includes the code point of every glyph along with a unique name to address it with and a general category. You should be able to use it to create an equivalent mapping of glyphs in your engine of choice.

Engine Specifics

Since there's far too many engines out there and their methods vary a lot, we can't include guides in this repository. For specifics on how to use this font in your engine of choice, please consult their documentation on importing custom fonts and custom glyph ranges, and how to write text with specific unicode codepoints. Since this is literally just a font, it should not prove too difficult.

Contributing Glyphs
