Cherry Bomb One - Google Fonts

About

Satsuyako first released the kana font CherryBomb in 2012 with the concept, "Cute with a kick." Its round and modern bounciness has made it appealing for diverse use from title logos and food packaging to children' s magazines.

To publish on Google Fonts, the designer adjusted the outline and balance of all the letters, added symbols and Latin glyphs, and made it into a proportional font that could also be used in the vertical writing style.

When you have some text, how can you choose a typeface? Many people—professional designers included—go through an app’s font menu until we find one we like. But the aim of this Google Fonts Knowledge module is to show that there are many considerations that can improve our type choices. By setting some useful constraints to aid our type selection, we can also develop a critical eye for analyzing type along the way.
