RPG-Awesome font library

Closed this issue · 2 comments

This is only a half-serious request. I'd like to see if this is something worth considering. If people think it's a good idea, I can follow the process to prepare the font.

CONs:

  • Some of the icons don't look good in a small (16x16px) size and are clearly meant to be used at larger sizes. This is to be expected, since there are icons with such non-standard meanings such as ra-implosion or ra-fireball-sword.
  • Lower level of professionalism than what's currently available at fluttericons.com. There are icons such as ra-turd. And icons have a larger variance of style.

PROs:

  • A wide variety of meanings not available from other icon sets: animals, electronics, dice, cards, plants, astrology symbols, swords, etc.
  • Creative juice for weekend warriors such as myself, for prototyping, building bespoke TRPG tools, or pair-programming with kids.

Love it! I've had a dueling wizard app in by back pocket for ~15 years now. Maybe I've just been waiting for Flutter and this iconset...

I have to update some other fonts in the next few days anyway, so I'll prep the font and install.

Added the RPGAwesome set. Game on!
