Death Star

Death Star font.

Death Star is a sci-fi display font by Sharkshock with a bold, all-caps look made for short titles, posters, and space-themed graphics. It is an unofficial font and should not be treated as connected with any film studio, franchise, or trademark owner.

About Death Star Font

Death Star uses rounded geometric shapes, tight spacing, and a retro futuristic style that works best when the words are short and the type is large. The regular font file is supplied in OTF format, with a normal 400 weight. DaFont places it in the techno and sci-fi category, and the author note describes it as an all-caps grotesque display font with limited stroke variation. That makes it more suitable for headlines than for paragraphs.

Use the preview box to test names, title words, initials, and uppercase phrases before downloading. The font is built for impact, so it can lose clarity when used small or packed into long sentences. If your design software supports OpenType features, check for alternates and ligatures, as the author note says these are included and may also be accessed through a glyphs panel in some programs. Because the kerning is very tight, give the font extra space around it and test it at the final size you plan to use.

Usage Tips

Keep Death Star for display settings, not body text. Try it at poster or logo size, avoid long paragraphs, and check each word carefully because the spacing is intentionally tight. If alternates or ligatures are available in your software, compare them with the default letters before finalizing a design.
