This is super useful! It’s so painful to have to go through my font library and copy that to a new project, especially when I just want a simple text. They could probably fix that by using a dynamic font by default tho
Thanks :)
Indeed.. it would be so very good to have a simple dynamic font included as the default font. Maybe I'll keep this in mind and try to make a plugin which makes a certain font default for all projects, but I don't know if it is possible yet.. we'll see!
sweet!
This is an awesome idea with a couple minor usability hiccups.
Obviously this makes finding fonts much less painful, but the number of times I need to do this makes it hard to justify giving it permanent screen space at the top of the editor. Is there any chance this could be optionally relocated to the Project > Tools menu? (I can probably put together a pull request if you’re interested)
My other concern is that I’m sure sure Google Fonts has a lot of fonts. Are there any plans to add search, filters, or sorting?
Thanks! I started implementing the search functionality but ran out of time (due to day job). I use it well as it is, but if I feel like the lack of search or fileting is bothering me, I'll likely finish the implementation. Sorting I didn't think about.. it should be sorted alphabetically but maybe it isn't and I didn't notice. I'll keep this in mind.
Yeah, they’re sorted alphabetically, but there’s 1400 fonts and I don’t know any of their names. If I’m looking for a new font, I’ll know that I want a serif font, a sans font, a monospace font, a font that supports a certain size range.
being an avid ui designer, this… this is good.
This is great. Google is where I get all my fonts. Certainly going to use this one.

This is awesome! Simple, but super useful. I have a little collection of Open Source fonts that I use in demos/prototypes or when I'm just starting a game (before I have to time find the "right" ones), but being able to quickly browse and grab one of the Google fonts is just so much better! I'm definitely going to use this :-)
Cool, now I don't have to keep an entire font list at hand. I can see it being useful for gamejams
that’s exactly why i made this XD for game jams and for helping with youtube videos i make
