Hello! so, I'm trying to make a bitmap serif font that I can actually use in day-to-day work.

does anything look wrong or weird?

thanks,

looks very crisp, clean and refreshing to me. the only think that troubles me (and i'm nitpicking here) is that the arm on the k seems a bit stubby. very nice work!

thanks - you're right about the k. at first I liked it but after altering I think it's stronger this way:

much better! sorry no one else has weighed in here for you. the boards seem quiet lately. or is it just me?

Hi Andrew, this is nice. I think the longer arm on the k is an improvement. I like the figures and the @ sign a lot.

<nitpicking>The top of the 's' seems a little squished to me. Maybe it goes too far to the right?</nitpicking>

It's nice and bright. Bitley is a good name.

let there be no mistake - nitpicking is a good thing! thank you both for nitpicking.
here's a new version with alterations (a,p,q,s,t,C,M,S,V,W,X,Y):
