Z Labs RoundPix 12px is a 12px Chinese pixel font (actual occupied size of Chinese characters is 11*11) modified and supplemented based on the Japanese font x12y12pxMaruMinya, adopting a rounded glyph style with Western characters drawn to a monospaced specification.
This project is in the development stage. Currently, it supports all Chinese characters in GB/T 2312, common Western characters, and common punctuation marks, meeting the basic needs for using simplified and traditional[note] Chinese characters.
Warning
This font is still under development. If you encounter any issues during use, please promptly provide feedback in the Issues section.
Important
Extensive modifications have been made to the original font to adapt it to the Simplified Chinese environment. For scenarios requiring Japanese usage, it is recommended to use the original font x12y12pxMaruMinya.

If this bothers you, please use another font.
