Wacky Kuda 2 is a bold, normal width, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Flaco' by Letter Edit, 'Trade Gothic Next' by Linotype, 'Core Sans E' by S-Core, and 'NeoGram' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with broad, compact proportions and squared terminals. The defining feature is a recurring series of horizontal “slice” interruptions that cut through strokes and counters, creating small notches and gaps across many glyphs. Curves stay fairly round and uniform, while straight strokes are rigid and blocky, giving the face a strong silhouette even when the breaks fragment the interior. Spacing and letterfit read as display-oriented, with the disruption pattern introducing a restless rhythm across lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as posters, headlines, music or nightlife graphics, and branding moments that benefit from a distinctive texture. It can work well in packaging or merchandise where the cutout effect becomes part of the visual identity, but it is likely to be most effective when used large and with generous spacing to keep forms recognizable.
The repeated cut-throughs give the font a glitch-like, deconstructed attitude that feels mischievous and deliberately imperfect. It conveys a loud, attention-grabbing tone—part industrial stencil, part digital interference—suited to designs that want to feel unconventional and slightly anarchic.
This design appears intended to take a solid, readable sans foundation and inject a strong signature through systematic horizontal disruptions. The goal is likely to create a memorable, one-off display voice that suggests fragmentation or interference while retaining enough structure to remain legible at typical headline sizes.
The slice motif is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, and it often traverses key recognition points (like bowls and crossbar areas), making the texture strong but also visually busy. In longer settings, the interruptions can create a shimmering banding effect across a line, especially at larger sizes.
