C64 Keycaps For Everybody

C64 Keycaps For Everybody

If you’ve got an MX-style keyboard and want some retro charm, you might like a recent project from [Levente Szabadkai]. It’s a set of C64-style keycaps that you can print …. The project started as an attempt to produce a set of C64 keycaps for an Ajazz 75% keyboard layout, but [Levente] kept pushing until it developed into an universal set.

The keys have C64 legends, plain legends, or blank, and work for ANSI boards from 60% to full size. — you can do two-color printing with an FDM machine, or you can print the caps alone and fill the legends with paint, either in FDM or resin. As a part of this work, [Levente] had to obviously create the glyphs to print upon all the keycaps.

He thus decided to release that as the C64 keyboard font, in fact. It’s available in TTF and OTF formats, and you can preview the font in your browser, if so desired.
