Pretty much everything is explained in the image, but I'm adding a note: I already had in mind the overall shape of the letters while working on Avenue of Lost Tales, but it wasn't until later that I decided to come up with an actual alphabet. So while the scribblings in Avenue of Lost Tales resemble these letters, they don't actually have any sense at all.

As I explain better in the guide included in the pack, I looked into OpenType but didn't find a simple solution to line implementation. Maybe a combination of features would have done the trick, but I'm no coder or font maker so I opted for 7 (yep, seven, sorry guys) fonts that must be combined inside the text block to implement lines. This is very tricky and tiresome I know... Remember though that I never meant this to be a common use font, but just a little decyphering game inside my future works instead.

You're welcome to use these symbols in your works if you want, and you can modify and improve them too. In both cases, just please reference me, thank you ^^

I started making a language of my own in high school.
it was supposed to be a mix of all languages while using latin as a base for context and grammar.
I called it "Unitorus" or Unity. after it being a mix of langauges.
I also modified an alphabet that developed years earlier to suit the purpose for it.
I was no linguist now, and I certainly wasn't one then. but this may make me try to bring my language to full status and finish it.

I've always loved self-made alphabets, I can't count the ones I thought up as a kid ;P
I like the few details that make it original, like the honorification :)
And either way, it looks kewl ;P

Thank you! Too bad I'm using this alphabet less and less in my works... I'm still quite fond of it though :3

I'm using this as a replacement for the Standard Galactic Alphabet in Minecraft.

Eh, it does seem just perfect for the blocky nature of Minecraft.

I've noticed there's no X. What should I use in place of that?

Use "ks". I did it on purpose, just some quirk to make it more interesting :3

This is very cool, if rather complicated.
