legend of zelda ocarina of time text font

Another free alternative that looks just as good is The Wild Breath of Zelda by Chequered Ink.

The actual font used in the game is Hylian Serif by Artsy Omni, which is free for personal use. The freedom to choose how Link powers up to save Hyrule has made this title one of Nintendo’s mainstays. Games in the main series let players immerse in the overworld, where towns, cities, dungeons unlock different quests and gear to power up Link in taking on progressively powerful adversaries.

He’s often tasked to rescue Princess Zelda, who happens to be the current incarnation of Goddess Hylia. Pointy-eared Link often sets out on an adventure, battling monsters and demonic minions out to destroy the kingdom of Hyrule and beyond. The first Zelda title was released in 1986, expanding on all of Nintendo’s gaming machines up to this day, and has even gone to become animated TV series as well as its own manga. One of Nintendo’s flagship productions, this series has centered on the many iterations of Link and Princess Zelda. The existing “Hylian 64” font (available on ) has leading (vertical spacing) issues and could also benefit from the romaji ligature treatment.Anyone who has played action-adventure games has definitely heard of The Legend of Zelda. I think my Zelda font adventures are probably done for the moment, though I am considering making a blockier version of this font to match the original OoT style.

If you want to use the font in a program that doesn’t support ligatures, you’ll have to use something like Character Map to copy and paste the extended Latin characters and other symbols that the ligatures are mapped onto. Incomplete syllables will have the consonants rendered in Latin letters (borrowed from the Triforce font) to make it easier to know what you’re typing.īe aware that, like the other font, it uses custom ligatures and will only work in an application which supports them (in particular, MS Paint and WordPad do not, but most other programs do). It is set up so you can type romaji and get the syllable glyphs shown in the table above (limited to just those symbols). This font is the version featured in Ocarina of Time 3D and the Hyrule Encyclopedia. Not content to remaster fonts from one Zelda game, I have created one for Ocarina of Time! Behold:
