My typeface is called Pipeline. I got the inspiration from playing Mario Kart and then going to do this homework, using the green pipes commonly found in Mario games as inspiration for this typeface. Pipeline is a heavy font, with think lines making up the letters. There are very few sharp points throughout this typeface, as it is made to resemble the curving of pipes. The ends of the letters are shaped like the ends of the green pipes in the Mario games.
Keywords describing this typeface are pixels, mechanical, and direction.
Pixels - This typeface could be found in a game, as it looks like it is part of an 8-bit game with the pixel-like edges of rounded letters.
Mechanical - These letters look like pipes, having a sort of function for movements within each letter.
Direction - Because this typeface is based on pipes, it has a feel of movement within each letter. There is a place to enter on the ends and then you can follow the path of the letter around the form to either another "exit" or around in a circle to come back to the place you entered.
