A compact, heavy, block-built sans with squared counters and strongly rectilinear construction. Strokes are largely monoline and terminate in flat, right-angled ends, creating a rigid grid-like rhythm. Corners are mostly sharp with occasional stepped notches that suggest a cut or stenciled treatment, and the interior spaces (like in O, D, P, R) are boxy and tight. The overall silhouette is geometric and chunky, with simplified curves replaced by straight segments and pixel-like transitions in several glyphs.
Best suited to large sizes where its stepped details and tight counters can stay clear—headlines, posters, branding marks, and punchy packaging/label work. It also fits interface accents for games or retro-tech themes, especially for short titles, buttons, or score/level readouts rather than long-form reading.
The tone reads mechanical and game-like, evoking arcade/UI labeling and utilitarian industrial signage. Its strict geometry and dense black shapes feel assertive and no-nonsense, with a retro digital flavor that can skew playful when used in short bursts.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a modular, squared construction that references digital/arcade aesthetics while remaining a coherent sans display face. Its heavy color and rigid geometry prioritize presence and thematic voice over text smoothness.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent squared design language, with lowercase forms feeling like scaled, simplified companions rather than calligraphic counterparts. Numerals match the same modular, right-angled logic, supporting a cohesive display system across headings and short numeric strings.
