AriW9500 Condensed Regular

Ari-W9500 Condensed Regular font by Catterio Sylt is a free pixel bitmap typeface that squeezes bold, blocky character into an ultra-narrow footprint. Each letter is built from tight, chunky squares that feel like they’ve been stamped onto an old LCD screen—crispy, mechanical, and just a bit glitchy. The strong vertical rhythm and compact spacing make it read clearly even when the size drops, which is exactly what you want when every pixel and column matters.

Using Ari-W9500 Condensed Regular, you can cram scores, timers, menus, and dialog into tiny HUDs, retro platformer interfaces, emulator overlays, or dense control panels without losing legibility. This free font also works beautifully for vaporwave posters, lo-fi cover art, and techy badges where you want a sharp, grid-locked texture. Try pairing Ari-W9500 with a smooth geometric sans set larger for headings to create a clean contrast between crisp pixel grit and modern polish.
