A jagged, irregular display face built from chunky strokes with sharply fractured edges and frequent notches, giving each character a chipped, cut-out silhouette. The letterforms lean slightly and feel hand-made rather than mechanically consistent, with uneven curves, asymmetric joins, and varied internal counters. Terminals often end in abrupt wedges or torn-looking points, while round shapes (like O) read as rough polygons. Spacing and widths fluctuate noticeably, contributing to a restless, collage-like rhythm in text.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, titles, packaging callouts, album/merch graphics, and game or event branding where texture is part of the message. It can also work for horror-comedy, fantasy, or Halloween-themed materials, especially when used at larger sizes where the fractured edges stay clear.
The font projects a mischievous, chaotic tone—part spooky, part punk—like distressed signage or improvised lettering for a theatrical prop. Its rough texture and angular bite evoke danger, mystery, and dark humor more than refinement. Overall, it feels energetic and deliberately unruly.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong novelty texture through deliberately broken contours and uneven construction, prioritizing character and atmosphere over neutrality. The consistent “chipped” motif across the alphabet suggests a purposeful distressed aesthetic aimed at expressive display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same distressed construction, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case settings. Numerals inherit the same chipped, high-impact silhouettes, remaining bold and attention-grabbing while still retaining the font’s irregular rhythm.
