A heavy, slanted sans built from rounded-rectangle forms with softened corners and a slightly squared, superelliptic geometry. Strokes are thick and compact with small, tightly controlled counters and frequent cut-in notches that add snap to joins and terminals. The rhythm is energetic and forward-leaning, with sturdy verticals, blunt ends, and a consistent, engineered curvature that keeps wide shapes cohesive even at display sizes. Figures and capitals share the same muscular silhouette, emphasizing solid masses and clean negative spaces.
Well suited to posters, headlines, and large-format messaging where impact and motion are desirable. It fits sports and performance-oriented branding, product packaging that needs bold shelf presence, and game or entertainment titles seeking a dynamic, retro-technical voice. It’s especially effective for short phrases, badges, and punchy callouts.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and sporty, with a retro motorsport/arcade flavor. Its chunky slant and squared curves feel mechanical and confident rather than delicate, suggesting speed, strength, and impact. The notched details add a tactical, industrial edge that reads as purposeful and performance-minded.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual punch through rounded-rectangular construction, a forward slant, and purposeful notch details. Its letterforms prioritize strong silhouettes and momentum, aiming for a modernized retro display look that stays cohesive across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
The design relies on large black shapes and compact interior spaces, so it reads best when given breathing room. In the sample text, the dense texture and slanted stance create a strong horizontal drive, making it visually commanding in short bursts and headlines.
