Puffin Arcade specimen from Bold Monday

A family of 12 bitmapped display styles derived from Puffin Display Soft, designed for layering and multi-colour animation.

About

Each of the 12 styles carries a distinct theme, from Dither and Liquid to Warp, Yoko and Tate, all built on the same heavy bitmap skeleton so that most styles stack cleanly on top of one another. The layering system was conceived for flashing, blinking and running animations, making the family particularly suited to kinetic screen work and title sequences. It sits comfortably alongside the calmer Puffin and Puffin Display families when a project calls for both registers.

Classification

A family of 12 bitmapped styles derived from Puffin Display Soft's heaviest weight, each with a distinct pixel-art or arcade-themed design treatment. Classified as display due to its decorative, layerable bitmap construction intended for expressive and animated use.
