In later 2021 I used alternating letters to give a line of text a wave. (See Undulate.) I realized that instead of having the waves on the top and bottom parallel to each other, I could have them reflect each other. This design idea gave birth to SlipperyFishes. The strange name came about because the look of a line of text reminded me of a slippery fish.
SlipperyFishes is monospaced with tight letter spacing to accentuate the ripple pattern. The family has four members: regular, outlined, condensed, and condensed outlined. The outline styles that can be used in a layer with their base styles to add color.
A completely unrelated note: Myfonts listed their top 25 new fonts from 2021. The list includes 18 sans serif faces, 6 seriffed faces, and 1 script face.
