A sharply angular, display-oriented face built from tall rectangular stems, abrupt terminals, and faceted cut-ins that create a chiseled, zigzag rhythm. Corners tend to be crisp and square, with small notches and asymmetric “bites” that make counters feel narrow and off-center. Curves are largely minimized into hard angles, giving round letters a squarish, segmented construction. Spacing and internal shapes vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an intentionally irregular, sculpted texture in text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, punchy headlines, logotypes, title cards, and packaging accents where its angular texture can be appreciated. It can also work for entertainment-themed graphics (games, events, music) and retro-inspired display compositions, but is likely to feel busy in long reading passages or at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous, with a slightly aggressive, poster-like energy. Its jagged geometry and quirky inconsistencies read as playful-but-edgy—evoking vintage oddities, pulp signage, and stylized fantasy or arcade aesthetics rather than sober editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong black silhouette with an intentionally odd, hand-cut or chiseled feel—prioritizing personality and visual punch over neutrality. Its faceted details and irregular rhythm suggest a decorative display face made to stand out in attention-grabbing contexts.
The alphabet shows a mix of narrow and wider silhouettes, and several forms lean on stepped shoulders and kinked joins that make the baseline pattern feel animated. Numerals follow the same blocky, cut-out logic, keeping a consistent black mass while preserving the font’s eccentric rhythm.
