Our
original plan was to promote fonts without a "physical" catalog.
The solution was an interactive catalog that allows the viewer to view samples
of fonts, print out bitmapped samples of fonts (we don't really recommend
using this particularly buggy feature), get ordering information, and find
out about future releases all within a warm fuzzy environment of
goofy colors, witty words, and funny sounds.

In the main holding screen, letterforms float randomly in space.
When the mouse is passed over a letter, the letter stops its motion and
the name of the font appears. Clicking on the letter takes the
viewer to another screen that displays a full showing of the font. For the
impatient,
a directory is provided so that the font showings can be quickly accessed.
Also accessible from the main holding screen are: ordering information, fontBoy
philosophy, and brief biographies of the designers. The project fit
on one high-density floppy disk.

Outdated, but still entertaining.
