A chunky, all-caps-forward display face built from dense, irregular silhouettes. Forms are sharply faceted and hand-cut in feel, with jagged notches, wedge-like terminals, and uneven sides that create a restless rhythm across words. Counters are frequently reduced or collapsed, producing solid-looking glyphs with occasional small cutouts. Overall proportions stay fairly compact with a steady baseline presence, while individual letters vary in internal geometry, giving the set an intentionally inconsistent, cut-paper texture.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, covers, logos, game or film titles, and punchy headers where the spiky silhouettes can be appreciated. It can also support themed packaging or merch graphics when a rough, hand-made tone is desired, but is not ideal for body copy or small UI text.
The font reads as energetic and unruly, with a DIY attitude that feels loud, mischievous, and slightly abrasive. Its angular cutouts and distorted shapes evoke punk zines, spooky-cartoon title cards, and playful horror or sci‑fi ephemera rather than refined editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual character through solid, cutout-like letterforms—favoring bold texture and attitude over neutrality. By collapsing many internal openings and emphasizing uneven, angular edges, it aims to create an instantly recognizable, novelty display voice for expressive titling.
The sample text shows strong word-shape impact at display sizes, but the dense interiors and aggressive notching can reduce legibility as sizes shrink or in long passages. The irregular construction produces distinctive silhouettes that work best when spacing and line length are kept controlled to avoid visual clutter.
