About this project

This hack aims to improve the legibility of the original font without removing the comic-style artistic intent. The edgy, scratchy typeface has been replaced with a cleaner comic look.

Tools for replacing the font with your own are also provided at https://github.com/HilltopWorks/VagrantStory-Font
