A heavy, blocky display face built from faceted, polygonal strokes with abrupt angles and wedge-like terminals. The outlines are intentionally irregular, with subtly canted horizontals and inconsistent internal counters that create a hand-cut, hacked-together rhythm. Counters tend to be tight and angular (notably in O/Q/8/9), and several letters show sculpted notches and spur-like details that emphasize the chiseled silhouette. Overall spacing and widths vary noticeably across the set, reinforcing the uneven, animated texture in text.
Best used at display sizes where the jagged facets and irregular counters can be appreciated—posters, titles, packaging, and punchy promotional graphics. It can also work for game UI or themed signage when you want an energetic, unconventional voice, but it will feel dense and busy at small sizes or in long paragraphs.
The font reads loud and mischievous, with a cartoonish roughness that feels like cut-paper lettering or a playful horror/comedy title card. Its angular quirks and chunky massing give it a rambunctious, offbeat personality suited to attention-grabbing headlines rather than quiet reading.
The design appears aimed at creating an intentionally imperfect, high-impact display look—combining chunky slabs with carved, angular quirks to produce a distinctive, one-off texture. Its varied widths and uneven detailing suggest a focus on character and motion over strict typographic regularity.
The design keeps a mostly straight, upright stance, but the shifting stroke angles and asymmetric details make lines of text look bouncy and slightly chaotic. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with strong silhouettes and small, angular counters that add to the toy-like, handmade feel.
