The Animal Crossing logo uses Rat Fink Heavy. This animated slab is part of House Industries’ Rat Fink collection, “based on the krazy hand lettering style of the man himself, Ed ‘Big Daddy’ Roth.” It’s rendered in yellow letters with a 3D effect, arranged on a bouncing baseline and attached to a wooden board with a clock on the top. The “New Horizons” tag is added in Ministry by Device, emulating embroidered lettering, with the second word made from elements in different shades of blue.
Some dialogue text, villager name on speech bubbles, and the UI was written in Seurat.
