Title: Machinarium font !
Post by: Materdea on March 16, 2010, 04:08:30 pm
Hi
Looking for a font name from the logo Machinarium.
If someone knew how this font is called I would be grateful.

The logo is certainly hand drawn, there isn't any font. ;)

[EDIT]
What I like the name of the font :)

I'm pretty sure this forum uses Verdana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verdana).

Poorly understood me. The idea I mean, what is the font ;)
[EDIT]
Possibly something similar.

As already said by Nicosmos, it's not really a font.
If you are looking for fonts with a similar "sketchy"and handwritten character, here are two proposals:

1) Casual Skript

2) Kid Type Marker
http://www.fonts.com/DE/detail.htm?pid=206655&  (try: http://www.identifont.com/show?48T (http://www.identifont.com/show?48T))

But they are only very far related to the "machinarium"-look  :-\

Now that I think again about it, even if the logo was not set with a font, there is the one used in subtitle on the box :  ;)

This is not Casual Skript, but this looks a bit like it.  :)

trying to get a little nearer to the 'original' characters. here are two more proposals:

there's a font called 'skrawl (http://www.fonts.com/font/haiku-monkey/skrawl/regular)' which looks at least a little bit like "machinarium" ::)

and the second font is called 'bad dog regular (http://www.fonts.com/font/fonthead-design-inc/baddog/regular)", getting quite close to the look of "Collector's Edition..."
