++ Bungee is a font that celebrates urban signs that stack the Latin alphabet, one + letter on top of the other, in order to make dramatic use of limited space. + Following their lead, Bungee typesets horizontally and vertically, so + it is always ready to take your text in a new direction. +
++ Bungeeâs letterforms were designed to reinforce a sense of verticality. Round + characters like O and diagonal characters like + A are straight-sided, and letters like L and + I gain serifs in order to create vertical words with + well-defined left and right edges. +
++ To contribute, see + github.com/djrrb/Bungee +

+
++ Bungeeâs + downloadable releases + also includes special + layer fonts + (for multicolor typesetting in environments where color fonts are not + supported) and + rotated fonts + (for stacked typesetting in environments where vertical text is not supported). +

++ The Bungee project is led by David Jonathan Ross, and thanks to support from + Google and + The Font Bureau, + Bungee was released under the SIL Open Font License. +
+ ++ In 2023â24, Marte Verhaegen and Just van Rossum produced a major revision (v2), + which includes an automated build process as well as many enhancements to the + vertical features and color fonts. +
