A heavy, rounded display face with irregular, torn-looking contours and softly blunted terminals. Strokes appear brush- or marker-like with uneven edges and occasional interior nicks, giving counters a slightly mottled, imperfect shape. Proportions are compact and chunky, with simple, almost monoline construction and a lively, slightly bouncy rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, event flyers, and title treatments where the rough edge can be appreciated. It also fits entertainment contexts like game UI headings, album/playlist art, and merchandise graphics that benefit from a handcrafted, slightly dirty imprint.
The overall tone is loud and mischievous, pairing a friendly, cartoonish bulk with a gritty, worn texture. It reads as casual and rebellious rather than refined, suggesting DIY energy and analog print imperfections.
The design appears intended to emulate bold hand-painted or stamped lettering that has picked up wear from rough printing or repeated use. Its simplified shapes and consistent heft prioritize instant impact and personality over precision, making it a characterful choice for expressive display typography.
The texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, with noticeable organic variation that makes repeated letters feel naturally inconsistent. The distressed perimeter adds strong character at larger sizes, while the roughness becomes the dominant feature as size decreases.
