Cyrax is a typeface which originates from nostalgia for the games, films, and technology of late 80’s / early 90’s. The wider-than-usual proportions are informed by the logos of technology companies. The squarish letterforms are inspired by fonts that commonly appear in sci-fi movies.

“Computer game” may also be used to describe video games because all video games essentially require a computer processor, and in some situations, may be used interchangeably with “video game”. However, the term “computer game” may also be more specific to games played primarily on personal computers or other type of flexible hardware system (also known as a PC game), to distinguish from video games that are played on fixed console systems. Other terms such as “television game” or “telegame” had been used in the 1970s and early 1980s, particularly for the home consoles that connect to a television set. In Japan, where consoles like the Odyssey were first imported and then made within the country by the large television manufacturers such as Toshiba and Sharp Corporation, such games are known as “TV games”, or TV geemu or terebi geemu. “Electronic game” may also be used to refer to video games, but this also incorporates devices like early handheld electronic games that lack any video output. The Tetris Effect is when people who may play games like Tetris see floating pieces.

Early video games use interactive electronic devices with various display formats. The earliest example is from 1947—a “Cathode ray tube amusement device” was filed for a patent on 25 January 1947, by Thomas T. Goldsmith Jr. and Estle Ray Mann, and issued on 14 December 1948, as U.S. Patent 2455992. Inspired by radar display technology, it consists of an analog device allowing a user to control a vector-drawn dot on the screen to simulate a missile being fired at targets, which are drawings fixed to the screen. Other early examples include Christopher Strachey’s Draughts game, the Nimrod computer at the 1951 Festival of Britain; OXO, a tic-tac-toe Computer game by Alexander S. Douglas for the EDSAC in 1952; Tennis for Two, an electronic interactive game engineered by William Higinbotham in 1958; and Spacewar!, written by MIT students Martin Graetz, Steve Russell, and Wayne Wiitanen’s on a DEC PDP-1 computer in 1961. Each game has different means of display: NIMROD has a panel of lights to play the game of Nim, OXO has a graphical display to play tic-tac-toe, Tennis for Two has an oscilloscope to display a side view of a tennis court, and Spacewar! has the DEC PDP-1’s vector display to have two spaceships battle each other.

A video game or computer game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface or input device – such as a joystick, controller, keyboard, or motion sensing device – to generate visual feedback. This feedback is shown on a video display device, such as a TV set, monitor, touchscreen, or virtual reality headset. Video games are often augmented with audio feedback delivered through speakers or headphones, and sometimes with other types of feedback, including haptic technology.
