Sans Superellipse Ogluy 5 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Expedition' by Aerotype, 'Arame' by DMTR.ORG, 'Manufaktur' by Great Scott, 'Stallman' and 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, and 'Quayzaar' by Test Pilot Collective (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from chunky, rounded-rectangle strokes with consistently softened corners and largely uniform stroke weight. Curves are minimized in favor of superellipse-like bowls and rectangular counters, producing a modular, constructed feel across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Proportions skew toward large interior spaces and a high lowercase presence, with squared terminals and clean, closed forms that stay crisp at display sizes. Diagonals and joins (notably in V/W/X/Y) are simplified into sturdy, geometric intersections, maintaining a tight, grid-friendly rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, branding marks, packaging, and poster typography where a strong, geometric voice is needed. It also fits game UI, tech-themed graphics, and signage-style compositions that benefit from compact, high-contrast silhouettes and a modular rhythm.
The overall tone reads bold and engineered—equal parts arcade/console nostalgia and contemporary UI hardware aesthetics. Its rounded corners keep the heavy forms approachable, while the squared construction adds a utilitarian, industrial edge.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive, heavy display sans, emphasizing repeatable parts, stable spacing, and immediately recognizable shapes. The goal seems to be maximum impact with a controlled, systemized look that remains friendly through softened corners.
Counters tend to be rectangular and well-contained, and many glyphs share repeating structural motifs (rounded outer corners, flat horizontals, and squared apertures), reinforcing a consistent system. The numerals follow the same boxy logic, with clear silhouettes and a signage-like presence.
