A rough-hewn, hand-drawn display face with jagged, angular construction and deliberately uneven stroke edges. Forms are built from wedge-like segments and sharp terminals, with a slightly chiseled silhouette that keeps counters open and shapes readable despite the irregularity. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, enhancing the handmade rhythm while maintaining a consistent overall texture across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for short display settings where character and texture are desirable: posters, headlines, title treatments, game/UI splash text, and packaging accents. It can work for brief thematic passages, but the irregular rhythm and busy edges will be most effective when used sparingly and at medium-to-large sizes.
The font conveys a playful, mischievous energy with a rustic, primitive flavor—more quirky than scary, but still suggestive of fantasy props, carved signage, or comic lettering. Its irregular contours and angular gestures give it an offbeat personality that feels intentionally imperfect and expressive.
Likely designed to simulate quick, improvised lettering with a carved or brush-cut feel—prioritizing personality and visual texture over typographic polish. The goal appears to be an intentionally odd, one-off voice that stands out in thematic or playful design contexts.
Uppercase characters lean toward geometric, rune-like simplification, while the lowercase retains a more handwritten feel, creating a lively mix when set in text. Numerals echo the same wedge-and-notch logic, with distinctive, slightly lopsided shapes that read well at larger sizes where edge texture can show.
