Btw here's a little #gamedev unicode protip: unicode defines several character ranges as private use areas. You can map code points in these ranges to whatever glyph you want. This can be very handy for custom characters in your game that won't conflict with established unicode characters
In our games we use the PUA for keyboard and controller button glyphs
