Fontemon - World's first video game in a font!

A surprisingly well-made browser game with a dash of nostalgia and humour. It’s not long (it took about 30 minutes to complete), but I had a lot of fun with it :)

Huh, even though the game sucks on touchscreen, I just tried it on my phone anyways.

Apparently the spacebar doesn’t work/glitches out when trying to play through animations and stuff.

Just use literally any other key for that and it works.

doesnt seem to actually be a game.

  Yeah yo, just load it up on a computer and hold space bar to get through the intro and through animated scenes. The game will prompt you to press A, B, C, or D for actions as necessary.
  
  You won’t find this game very entertaining at all on a mobile touchscreen.

  It actually is!
  
  You gotta type a bunch of random stuff to get past the intro, but once the game starts, you get to choose your actions in battles.

fun, but also quite annoying after a while

  Bleh, I already beat the game. If you’re on a touchscreen, it’ll totally suck. But on a PC, just hold the spacebar through all the animations and stuff, until it prompts you to press A, B, C, or D.
  
  And of course there’s always backspace to go back a move or 10 or whatever. Pretty nifty little game if you ask me.
