A heavy, oblique sans with forms built from rounded-rectangle geometry and softened corners. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with squared counters and apertures that stay relatively tight at display sizes. Terminals are mostly blunt and flattened, and curves resolve into superelliptical bowls rather than true circles, creating a compact, machined feel. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey construction (notably a and g), a sturdy dot on i/j, and numerals that follow the same blocky, rounded-square rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, branding marks, apparel graphics, and packaging where a compact, forceful silhouette is an advantage. It can also work for UI labels or game/tech-themed graphics when set with generous tracking and ample size to preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone is energetic and punchy, combining a sporty, game-like presence with a slightly retro, arcade or motorsport vibe. Its slanted stance and chunky massing read as confident and loud, with a friendly edge from the rounded corners.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through compact superelliptical shapes, blunt terminals, and a consistent oblique stance. It prioritizes bold presence and a fast, kinetic rhythm over delicate detail, aiming for recognizable, stamp-like letterforms in display contexts.
Spacing and internal negative space feel intentionally economical, which amplifies impact but can darken texture in longer lines. The oblique angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping it hold together as a cohesive display voice.
