the legend of zelda: link's awakening (game boy) font
description:
recreation of the pixel font from nintendo's the legend of zelda: link's awakening (1993) on the game boy.
this recreation includes the special/accented characters from the french and german releases of the game. in game, the characters with a diaeresis use an additional tile above them - in this recreation, the characters have been combined properly (and as a result, the height of the font overall is greater than 8px).
as an aside, this font was also used for the fan translation of for frog the bell tolls (aka カエルの為ために鐘かねは鳴なる / kaeru no tame ni kane wa naru, 1992/2011).
only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
updated 9 july 2022 to include additional accented uppercase characters, and the star icon.
