Press Start 2P

by Codeman38

Press Start 2P is a bitmap typeface by Codeman38 that faithfully recreates the chunky, double-resolution pixel lettering found in 1980s arcade games and early console title screens. Every glyph is built on a strict grid with bold, blocky proportions that read clearly even at small sizes, though it shines brightest in headlines and UI elements for retro gaming projects. It's become something of a go-to in the pixel font world, widely used across indie games, chiptune album art, and nostalgic web design.
