A chunky, inked display face with irregular, hand-drawn contours and a consistently heavy stroke. Forms are built from angular, slightly faceted curves with occasional wobble, giving counters an uneven, organic shape. Terminals look blunt and cut-off, and the rhythm is lively with noticeable variation in glyph widths and sidebearings. The overall texture is dense and dark, with simplified construction that favors bold silhouettes over precision.
Best suited to short, high-impact text where texture and personality are an asset—posters, event flyers, youth-oriented branding, packaging, stickers, and merch. It also works well for comic or game UI headings and any application that benefits from a rough, handmade display voice rather than continuous reading.
The font conveys a playful, mischievous energy—more scribbled poster than polished typography. Its rough edges and uneven geometry suggest spontaneity and humor, creating an approachable, slightly rebellious tone that feels casual and expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, hand-rendered look with strong silhouettes and an intentionally imperfect finish. By pairing heavy strokes with irregular outlines and variable spacing, it aims to feel immediate and human, like lettering made quickly with a thick marker or brush.
Round letters like O/Q read as rough, almost octagonal loops, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) feel chiseled and energetic. The lowercase includes a single-storey a and g, and the i/j use distinct round dots, reinforcing the informal, drawn-by-hand character.
