    Project mention: Bitmap fonts make computers feel like computers again | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-04-09

    When I wrote my own Invaders game (which was a childhood dream by the way), I was quite unhappy with the rendering quality of CanvasRenderingContext2D.fillText() on the game canvas. The antialiasing introduced various shades of green whereas I wanted to render the text with a solid monochrome green colour while the glyphs retain their crisp and jagged edges. Using canvas { image-rendering: pixelated } improved the crispiness and jaggedness but it still introduced multiple shades of green.

    I finally decided to take the matter into my own hands, take an IBM PC OEM font or something similar to it, put the bitmaps as integer arrays within my code and use that to render each character text by text. I am very happy with the results.

    You can see it here: https://susam.net/invaders.html

    Everything in this game including the text is drawn with CanvasRenderingContext2D.fillRect().

    The bitmap array is here: https://codeberg.org/susam/invaders/src/branch/main/invaders...

    In fact, I spun off the bitmap array as its own project here: https://codeberg.org/susam/pcface
