HALFSIES is a display font by Jeje Studios. We traced it from the hand-lettered HALFSIES and RODEO titles in our Gunslingers artwork, then drew the rest of the alphabet, the figures and the accents to match.

Every character was drawn three times. As you type, the font gives each repeat a different version, and it won't reuse the version from three letters back. The first version of H, A, L, F, S, I, E, O and D is the original artwork. E, O and S also have a second original drawing.
Each color font holds the line, face, X marks and shadow in set colors, so one text box gives the full look. They show in color in Chrome, Safari and Firefox, and in Mac apps that use the system text engine, such as Pages and Keynote. Apps without color font support show plain black letters; use the layer fonts there.
For your own colors, type the same text in four text boxes, set them in Shadow Line, Shadow, Line and Face, stack them in that order and color each one. The four fonts share exact spacing, so the stack stays lined up at any size. The X marks are holes in Face, so they take the Line color.
Capitals, lowercase, figures, punctuation, currency signs, and accented letters for Western and Central European languages.
