(I wanted to leave this as a review, but itch won't let me copy and paste what I wrote into the review box and no way am I gonna retype all this haha. So I'm leaving my feedback here instead, I hope it is helpful.)
This is a lovely font, but the kerning needs a bit of work--especially regarding how uppercase letters appear alongside lowercase ones. It is most noticeable with the capital "T", but a few other problematic ones are "L", "F", "N", and "V".
Adding some ligatures (like "Th" and "Ta / Te / Ti / To / Tu / Ty" etc.) would be extremely helpful. This font would be great to use as handwritten signatures for in-game notes and such, which makes it especially important that uppercase and lowercase work well together.
The lowercase "o" does not always connect with letters to its right (try typing "void", "cow", "open", and "lost" to see what I mean).
The lowercase "r" does not connect properly when to the right of "w" or "b" (type "wren" and "brown" to see what I mean). This could be another area where ligatures may help.
If those issues are resolved, this will legit become my all-time favorite pixel font - it really is lovely, and I'll check back periodically to see if it gets updated. Thank you for making it! Very happy with the entire pixel font bundle, this is the only font that gave me any issues whatsoever.

This is super cute. Great work!
Thanks. It was a tough one at such a small size!
I can imagine! Worth the effort though.
