@alexmyczko now I get it, thank you.

I didn’t aim to create a neutral font. As one of the users said, “It’s functional, has personality, plus, it’s readable.” I think it’s a perfect description for Martian Mono.

Overhanging terminals in aces and bent terminals in rtfj, along with a closed aperture, and an almost complete lack of contrast shape the font’s aesthetics.
