The game Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?! uses two of my fonts! Candy Beans, my most popular font ever, is used all over the UI. The dialogue boxes use a waaaaay less well known font of mine - Be Kind To The Earth

A screenshot from the game Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?! showing the player driving around in a truck completing challenges. The UI elements on screen all use my font Candy Beans, a preview image of which is pasted over the bottom-middle of the screenshot.

I have a feeling more of my fonts are used here, maybe even in the logo, but I've made like over 100 and at Chequered Ink we have 1,200+ so I've got a bit of font blindness by now. Not to mention imposter syndrome... (is that my font? probably not. Oh wait, it is!)

Candy Beans is such a good font that I've used a ton in the past. Thank you for your service! ^^

Lol this is wildly funny to me because I worked on that project and EVERY TIME I did a repo commit on the original next, this would pop up. Candy beans font is my friend now
