Suitable Fonts

One design consideration which needs to be looked at is what font I am going to use for the final piece. My chosen font needs to fit in with the overall theme of the game as well as being easy to read and of a suitable colour. A key factor in good design is not to use any more than 2 different fonts, and keep the range of font sizes down to a minimum.

With this in mind I went onto http://www.dafont.com/ to have a look for any fonts which I think will be suitable for my game. Quickly I came across a number of fancy fonts which could have been candidates however I didn’t feel that any of them were just right. Eventually I came across the font ‘Copa Banana’ after doing a search for bananas. I felt that this font was suitable as the aim of the game is to collect all the bananas on the screen.
