Minimalist bitmap font
Silom is a free personalization app developed by dafont. It is a bitmap-style typeface that has a bold, pixelated look—each letter is rendered at an 8-pixel grid resolution—giving it a distinctly retro, low-res digital aesthetic. This platform is freely available for personal use, though commercial usage requires contacting the author or reviewing licensing terms.
Pixelated display font
Silom is a pixel-style bitmap font with a blocky, 8-pixel aesthetic reminiscent of early PC and video game text. It is ideal for designs that require a retro, low-resolution, techy, arcade-like, or old-school vibe, and is also well-suited for digital artwork, pixel-based graphics, and playful creative projects.
With 112 glyphs, it has enough characters for basic text, especially in English. Depending on how close you’re working to the display and what size you use, it has a strong visual impact — it works well for stylistic or decorative purposes rather than long passages. It has a minimal glyph set compared to modern typefaces.
Perfect for arcade and retro designs
Silom Font offers a bold, pixelated style perfect for retro, arcade, and tech-themed designs. Its blocky 8-pixel aesthetic gives strong visual impact in decorative use, though limited glyphs and poor scalability restrict versatility. Free for personal use, it shines in playful projects but struggles with readability in long passages.
