When I released Thrusters on October 10th, 2010, I was riding a wave of nostalgia for classic arcade games. The inspiration came straight from Space Duel, that vector graphics masterpiece from the early 1980s. I wanted to capture that retro-futuristic vibe, you know? All sharp angles and geometric forms, like something you’d see on an old-school arcade cabinet. The result was this angular, twin-line display typeface that just screams vintage gaming. One of the cool features I included was the ability to layer four different forms of the font. This way, designers could create these awesome multicolor effects. Perfect for anyone looking to evoke that classic gaming aesthetic in their work. On June 18th, 2021, I gave Thrusters a bit of a tune-up. Fixed some inconsistencies, removed deprecated characters, and improved the OpenType features. Just some housekeeping to keep the font running smoothly.
