I don't have a strong objection to it.  Anyway, I found that
the current problem is in the different place.  gamegrid.el
has this function.

(defun gamegrid-setup-default-font ()
  (setq gamegrid-face
        (copy-face 'default
                   (intern (concat "gamegrid-face-" (buffer-name)))))
  (when (eq gamegrid-display-mode 'glyph)
    (let ((max-height nil))
      (loop for c from 0 to 255 do
            (let ((glyph (aref gamegrid-display-table c)))
              (when (and (listp glyph) (eq (car  glyph) 'image))
                (let ((height (cdr (image-size glyph))))
                  (if (or (null max-height)
                          (< max-height height))
                      (setq max-height height))))))
      (when (and max-height (< max-height 1))
        (set-face-attribute gamegrid-face nil :height max-height)))))

It tries to make a face height shorter than the grid-glyph
height.  I confirmed that when I change the last line to:

        (set-face-attribute gamegrid-face nil :height (- max-height 0.1))))))

the resulting face is good and doesn't produce 1-dot
horizontal gap in the play field.   I'm now investigating
why the original code isn't good enough.
