Gege Pixel
A hand-drawn pixel font for traditional Mongolian script, made for games
The problem
Mongolian script in a game needs a pixel font that stays sharp at small sizes and joins letters correctly. Godot also shapes Mongolian only along a horizontal line, with no way to set it in vertical columns.
Who it's for
Developers and designers making games, apps and websites in Mongolian script, especially game developers who use Godot.
What it does
Gege Pixel is a pixel font for traditional Mongolian script, drawn by hand pixel by pixel on a 16 px grid and made mainly for game dialogue, menus and quest logs. It has 1,408 glyphs: every letter, digit and mark of the script, plus Latin and Mongolian Cyrillic. Letters join correctly at the start, middle and end of a word, following the current Unicode model. It's sharp at 16 px and its multiples, such as 32, 48 and 64. There are three fonts, Gege Pixel, Shahaa and Mini, in TTF and WOFF2. It's free for personal use; commercial work needs a paid Studio or Organisation licence. If you use Godot, the free godot-bichig add-on sets the script in vertical columns in your game.
