About Ongunkan Star Wars Jabba Font Family


The alphabet was designed by Eric Larson when the Special Edition of the Star Wars original trilogy came out in 1997. At the time, the PepsiCo food corporation and its subsidiaries created several collectible promotions to coincide with the release. Among those were the pizza boxes for Pizza Hut, which featured secret messages written in a cipher called "Jabba's alphabet." The code key was provided in the box. Larson stated that he based his alphabet on a modern Hebrew font after noticing similar markings on the original prop of Han Solo frozen in carbonite, as seen in the 1980 film Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back.

In July, 1999, two fans known as "Mike Dolan" and "Tommy of Escondido" crafted a typeface reproducing Eric Larson's Huttese alphabet. That font was originally available at Geocities.com under the name "Trade Huttese."

In the 2002 video game Star Wars: Racer Revenge, that alphabet was used in the podracer selection menu. With the diversity of the playable characters' names, the entire alphabet was featured in the game, and the mapping corresponds both with Larson's and that of the "Trade Huttese" typeface.

About Runic World Tamgacı

As my interest in runic scripts increased, it became imperative to make my own fonts. It was time to put all these years of hard work into flesh and blood.This foundry, with the name of runic world tamgacı, has been prepared as a platform to distribute font works developed on Old European Runic inscriptions, Old Asian Runic inscriptions, Old Hungarian Runic inscriptions, Runic inscriptions found in Africa and Arabian geography, and italic inscriptions such as Etruscan and Iberian. With new additions, the inventory of the foundry will be constantly updated and expanded. These Runic studies were made from scratch by looking at the relevant sources.
