The alphabet in a Rubik's cube. Really, its in there. Just barely. Positive and negative versions, miraculously with some puntuation. Numerals are counted thru block spaces. The caps are given a 3D highlight to accentuate the block letters. Check out the Pixel Preview.

Very entertaining, geneus1. I am admiring the consistency of this font.

However, I am surprised that this is rated highest between your fonts. Don't get me wrong, it's beautiful, but IMHO your hulk and weaver fonts are much better.

@hisham4444:
i dont think you can compare this fonts in any way, but i think this rubik-one needed a lot more creativity and a brilliant idea than for example the hulkfont...which is great indeed.

+ i like the "barely legible"-tag :)

Thank you all for the kind words. I am tempted to name my next creation "The Meteoric Interplanetary SuperDuperBrilliant Alternate Reality Disco Ball Font."


hisham4444: I am often surprised and entertained by the FontStruct rating system. I am grateful for each and every vote. Since they are largely out of my control, I like to sit back and watch the ratings as if I let "the kids" go up and down on a rollercoaster. Only I know who the kids really are, how complex they are, their uniqueness, their strengths and weaknesses, but letting them go allows me to see how the world sees them, whatever the score.

kix: FYI- I don't really compare "the kids," but for me, the HulkSmash font required greater creativity and technicality per glyph. For Rubrix, once I created the foundation for the cube design, the rest was fairly simple since everything was pretty much confined to a 3x3 matrix. For HulkSmash, twice as many bricks were used, the grid space was taller and wider, utilized scaled and overlapping bricks, and an original font designed to be sliced and shifted and smashed in different places on each character, all while attempting to look non-modular.

ok...
i didn't see it that way, but it sounds pretty logic.

I would like to see that fontstruction – coming from you it would probably be awesome and intriguing – but suggest you use an acronym for the name: T.M.I.S.D.B.A.R.D.B.F.
