Thanks! Knowing the info about the maximum span in pixels between ascender and descenders for the whole fonts are super useful when using them on devices that divide the video memory in tiles like 8-bits consoles. Thanks for the quick reply!

Awesome fonts! Just a quick question I got while is was evaluating them for my project: What does the 8x8 font mean? I was doing measurements on the posted example pics and I found that in this and some other of your fonts the distance from the descent and ascent is more than 8 and usually 9 (see for example the first image where between a top-most pixel from the W in wiggly and the bottom-most pixel for the G in the same word there are 9 pixels in span). With this, I mean if that I only have a place with only 8 pixels in height to draw, this (and quite other) fonts wouldn't be able to fit, right? What is what I'm understanding wrong from the 8x8 label? Thanks for your time!
Just saw this one also! It's written mainly in C with some ASM for the background / floor separation. I compiled everything with http://gbdk.sourceforge.net/ . Thanks for playing it!!
