    Eh, personally I find the letters too similar to one another, it’s like anti-shavian, where that was designed for every glyph to be distinct and to be a single stroke, ithkuil is complex and has a lot of glyphs that are hard to distinguish at a glance.

    My ideal would be for a writing system where words are built from Hangul-like syllable blocks, every consonant is a single stroke glyph without any closed loops, and every vowel has to have at least one closed loop. I’ve also gotten really interested in the look of vertical writing systems so dat too :p

      I think it works really well for the goals of the language (complexity and conciseness) although I still prefer V3. A Hangul like syllable block system is cool and has it’s benefits but if you’re clever then an abuguida is better since it makes more recognisable words in languages like English that are less analytic. Hangul is sick as hell tho and maybe I should make a version for English.
