Wacky Pote 11 is a very bold, wide, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Contempo Gothic' by Arkitype, 'Duplet Rounded' by Indian Type Foundry, 'Linotte' by JCFonts, and 'Proper Tavern' by Larin Type Co (names referenced only for comparison).

A chunky, soft-edged display face with heavy, rounded letterforms and visibly irregular contours. Strokes are broadly uniform but wobble subtly, with blunted terminals, lumpy curves, and occasional notches and spur-like bumps that create a deliberately imperfect silhouette. Counters are generally compact and sometimes pinched or asymmetric, while joins and bowls feel sculpted rather than geometric, producing a bouncy, uneven rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, splashy headlines, product packaging, and playful branding. It also works well for children’s media, party invitations, stickers, and humorous social graphics where personality is more important than long-form readability.
The overall tone is comedic and mischievous, with a friendly, cartoon-like presence. Its roughened edges and inflated shapes give it a handmade, slightly messy energy that reads as informal and attention-seeking rather than refined or corporate.
The design appears intended to inject character through controlled irregularity—combining a hefty, friendly skeleton with roughened outlines to suggest a quirky, handmade voice. It prioritizes visual charm and novelty over typographic neutrality, aiming to feel spontaneous and fun at display sizes.
Spacing and internal shapes vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, enhancing the offbeat character. Numerals and capitals carry the same blobby, distressed treatment, helping headings and short phrases feel cohesive even when mixing cases and figures.
