I am happy to announce the availability of our first product: Bitmap Font Machine. This is a bitmap font generator which generates image-based fonts for use in games based on 3D technology such as OpenGL or Direct3D.
While working on our first game, I was looking for a bitmap font generator. Since we are primarily working on Mac OS X and Linux based systems, I had a hard time to find a tool for these platforms which is also easy to use. As a result, I simply decided to write a tool to fill the gap and to provide it to other people as well. Using Java applet technology ensures that it is potentially available on a wide range of systems.
Bitmap Font Machine is free of charge and will be financed through ads. Over time, enhancements will be made to the software. We created the support forum for your valuable feedback.
