04b03

04b03 font by Yuji Oshimoÿo is a free pixel bitmap typeface that thrives in tiny spaces. Its chunky, grid-locked squares feel like they’ve been snapped into place on an old CRT screen, giving text a raw, 8‑bit honesty. Letters read clearly even at microscopic sizes, with each blocky step of the contours feeling deliberate rather than clumsy, so you can cram information into tight UI panels without losing legibility.

Using 04b03, your work instantly taps into a stripped-down, retro tech aesthetic that’s great for game HUDs, score counters, mini maps, favicon text, coding-themed visuals, and lo-fi stream overlays. This free font loves being used in all caps and short bursts, where its rigid rhythm is easiest to read. For longer copy or logos, pair 04b03 with a clean geometric sans to handle larger text while 04b03 handles micro-labels and pixel-perfect details.
