A heavy, forward-slanted display face with chunky strokes, rounded corners, and frequent notch-like cut-ins that create a subtle stencil/ink-trap feel. The letterforms are squarish but irregular, with a wobbly baseline rhythm and uneven internal counters that lean toward angular rectangles rather than smooth ovals. Terminals often flare into small slabs or hooks, and joins feel hand-shaped, giving the set a deliberately imperfect, animated texture. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing a loose, energetic cadence in words.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, covers, event graphics, product packaging, and logo wordmarks where personality is the priority. It can also work well for game titles, stickers, and merch; for longer copy, larger sizes and looser tracking help maintain clarity.
The font reads as mischievous and offbeat, with a cartoony, arcade-adjacent attitude. Its skewed posture and chunky silhouettes give it an energetic, slightly rebellious tone that feels more like a one-off title style than a neutral workhorse.
Likely designed to deliver maximum character through a bold, skewed silhouette and intentionally irregular construction, using notches and slabby terminals to create a distinctive, quirky voice that stands out quickly in display contexts.
The notch and cut-out details remain consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, helping the irregularity feel intentional rather than accidental. The dense black color and compact counters mean it benefits from generous size and breathing room to keep interior shapes from filling in visually.
