A chunky, angular display face built from hard-edged, faceted strokes with frequent diagonal cuts and notched terminals. The forms feel mechanically carved, mixing wedge-like corners with occasional cutouts and sharp counters, producing a busy silhouette even in simple letters. Widths vary noticeably across the set, and many glyphs lean on flat horizontals and slanted joins that create a forward-driving rhythm. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s geometry, favoring stylized, segmented shapes over conventional bowls and smooth curves.
Best suited for short, prominent text such as game titles, esports/sports marks, event posters, album/track titles, and tech or sci‑fi themed graphics. It also works well for on-screen UI accents where a bold, stylized voice is desired, while extended paragraphs will look dense and highly decorative.
The overall tone is high-energy and game-like, with a combative, sci‑fi attitude. Its sharp, fractured detailing reads as intentionally unconventional and attention-grabbing, giving it a mischievous, slightly chaotic personality suited to spectacle rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, punchy display voice through sharp geometry and repeated diagonal slicing, creating a signature “carved” texture. It prioritizes personality and impact, aiming for a kinetic, futuristic feel that stands out in branding and entertainment contexts.
In the sample text, the dense corners and internal angles create strong texture and visual noise, which can reduce clarity at smaller sizes but adds impact at headline scales. Numerals follow the same cut-and-notched construction, maintaining a consistent, weaponized look across the set.
