Identifying fonts - What The Font.

Post by PieMonster »

I thought I would mention a quick and easy way to identify fonts for your covers. A lot of game logos use custom made fonts and text and cannot be matched. Some basic fonts can be matched and identified. Below is a website that I commonly use for identifying fonts. You can upload a .JPG and it does a decent job of matching the correct font (or finding an alternative). Give it a try:

Hey that is really awesome.

One general thing I do is google it. Rarely have I not found the font by using google.

Generally I just search "Darksiders 2 Font" and it is found, but this is really good, because I actually used my method on a game not a few days ago and I couldn't find it.

So hopefully this could work better.
