We just released #PurpleHaze v0.5 at @futurefonts
https://www.futurefonts.xyz/fontspectrum/purple-haze #Advertisement #VariableFont

These are the changes:
With the generous help of Akaki Razmadze @razmadzekoko we explored the #Georgian script and its round shapes. Irene Vlachou @irenevlachou helped with the details and characteristics of the #Greek alphabet. On top of that, we made sure that all dots are in line and order. Thanks to @romainmarc.

Citizens of #Greece and #Georgia will get the original entry price license.

Purple Haze by Font Spectrum - Future Fonts

Purple Haze is a variable typeface with a readable regular weight and decorative extremes. The font works best when being animated or interacted with.
