@nat@cloudisland.nz @mwichary@mastodon.online it’s possible to fake small caps in publishing tools, but a font variant that implements it directly means you can use the typeface in application software that can only render single strings of glyphs, eg. games or inside apps.

@rmi@cloudisland.nz @nat@cloudisland.nz Sorry, just to clarify because I maybe sense some confusion: The font is actually done and released – what’s in it is final. It’s not being actively worked on anymore. And, funnily enough, faking small caps in Gorton Perfected, given its single stroke, would actually be very close to proper small caps – decrease the font size, increase the font weight (via weight font variation), tweak letter spacing, and I think you’re basically there!
