• About

This is the page dedicated to Project Paintball, my version of the Splatoon in-game font.

If your web browser supports web fonts, then you are now browsing this page entirely in the font!

There is some information going around online that Splatoon uses a modified version of Josephine. This, in my opinion, could not be more wrong. Anyone with a little attention to detail could notice the glaring differences in over half of the letters. Even Gill Sans Extra Bold would be a closer approximation.

• Method

This font was not modified from Josephine. Instead, it was traced from in-game screenshots on Inkscape and put together on FontForge.

Some letters, such as Æ, Ø and ð were not found in the languages supported by Splatoon. In that case, those missing letters were drawn from scratch on Inkscape!

• Features

  • Loyal copy of Splatoon's in-game font*
  • Full support up to Latin Extended A
  • Dollar sign $, cent sign ¢, euro sign €, yen sign ¥, pound sign £
  • The following dingbats: ` † ‡ ¼ ½ ¾
  • Even expanded to Russian (Cyrillic alphabet)!
  • Arrows → &circlearrowr;
*This font is neither guaranteed nor implied to be an exact 1:1 copy of Splatoon's in-game font, just a very close approximation.

• To Be Added

  • Kerning
  • Possibly more letters/dingbats
  • Japanese (unlikely)

Ça me fait peur de fêter noël là, sur cette île bizarroïde où une mère et sa môme essaient de me tuer avec un gâteau à la cigüe brûlé.
