A chunky, rounded display face with a hand-drawn, marker-like construction and an irregular inline/outline effect. Strokes are thick and slightly wobbly, with softened terminals, uneven edges, and occasional interior gaps that feel like imperfect inking or rough printing. Letterforms lean toward simple, bulbous geometry with loosely consistent proportions, while spacing and widths vary enough to keep the rhythm lively and handmade rather than typographic-precise. Numerals and caps carry the same blobby silhouette and uneven contours, maintaining the distressed texture across the set.
Best suited to short display settings where texture and personality are desirable, such as posters, event titles, product packaging, sticker designs, and playful branding. It can also work for children’s materials or casual social graphics, where the irregular outline effect helps create a friendly, handmade voice.
The overall tone is whimsical and approachable, with a crafty, doodled character that reads as fun and slightly mischievous. Its imperfect outlines and ink-trap-like voids evoke a casual, analog feel—more zine/poster energy than polished editorial typography.
Likely intended as a characterful display font that mimics hand-inked lettering with a built-in distressed/outlined look. The design prioritizes warmth and visual humor over strict uniformity, aiming to stand out quickly in titles and graphic applications.
The inline-like inner contour is not perfectly centered, which enhances the rough, stamped/inked impression. The texture is built into the letterforms rather than applied as a separate layer, so the distressed character remains visible even in solid black shapes.
