A heavy, rounded sans with soft, slightly irregular contours and a gently wobbled baseline feel. Strokes are broadly uniform, with curved joins and terminals that read as cut or softly blunted rather than sharp. Many glyphs lean into bulbous bowls and compact internal counters, while overall widths fluctuate from letter to letter, creating an uneven, hand-drawn rhythm. The lowercase is simple and sturdy, and the numerals are large, blocky, and highly graphic.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, stickers, packaging, and playful branding. It can work for brief display copy or callouts, but the dense weight and compact counters suggest avoiding long paragraphs or small sizes without added spacing.
The font conveys a cheerful, informal tone with a comic, kid-friendly energy. Its irregular rhythm and chunky silhouettes feel spontaneous and approachable, prioritizing personality over strict typographic precision.
The design appears intended as a characterful display sans that feels hand-crafted and lively, using rounded geometry and controlled irregularity to create an energetic, approachable voice.
At text sizes the tight counters and dense weight make the texture read dark and punchy, while the uneven widths add motion and emphasis. The most comfortable reading comes from giving it generous tracking/leading so the forms don’t visually clump.
