The post of @mcc about IP, helped us reach this conclusion.

Yesterday I made a d-tour via Luzern to meet Felix Päffli from Studio Feixen.
Literally the nicest guy! 🫶
We found some similarities in our explorations with #VariableFonts.
Duh, Studio Feixen did EVERYTHING in their new font MOV:

Yet another website, applying #ElectricBlue to the homepage.
Vasilis van Gemert @vasilis plays with the hover effect, putting a lighter weigh on top of the titles, resulting in a inline effect.

Electric Blue by Font Spectrum - Future Fonts

Electric Blue is a rounded pixel typeface derived from Daniël’s experimentation with melting and conjoining pixels. It is a variable font with extremely bold and thin poles and a surprising switch in-between. The look of Electric Blue taps into the nostalgia of retro futuristic design from the Space Age 60’s and Neon Glow 80’s. While it might awake associations to existing typefaces, we can asure you, that these are purely coincidental. The technical challenge to switch from apart elements to conjoined letters, pushed Edgar to the outskirts of variable font engineering. Not every software (looking at you After Effects) might support all features, but we went out of our ways to support as many environments as possible. Be an early adapter and join our journey now, we are exited to explore more dimensions and alternate universes in the near future.

Ok, now we know, why you really needed these accents @haraldpeter in #ElectricBlue.

Would you mind if we make a case on @FontsInUse?
It would the the first featuring Electric Blue!

We updated #ElectricBlue with Latin Extended accents.
Daniël Maarleveld made this amazing animation, that takes advantage of the full spectrum of weights included in Electric Blue. #VariableFont @futurefonts

Modyfi was a promising online animation platform, that we used for some of our animations.
But it got bought by Figma and will be discontinued on June 13th.
Too bad start-ups are still building products to be bought out, rather than creating something sustainable. #Modyfi + #Figma

We will happily keep using #Cavalry!
