A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared contours, hard corners, and minimal curvature. Strokes are consistently thick and mostly orthogonal, with frequent cut-ins and small rectangular counters that create a chiseled, modular feel. The lowercase is tall and compact, with short ascenders/descenders and simplified forms that echo the uppercase; several glyphs show deliberate notches and step-like terminals that introduce a digital, grid-based rhythm. Numerals and punctuation follow the same chunky, rectilinear logic, producing dense, high-impact word shapes.
Best suited to display typography where its chunky modular texture can read clearly—game interfaces, arcade-inspired branding, event posters, punchy headlines, and bold label or packaging applications. It can also work for short technical callouts or section titles where a constructed, digital tone is desired.
The overall tone feels like retro screen graphics and arcade-era UI lettering—assertive, mechanical, and slightly playful. The repeated notches and square apertures give it a techno/industrial attitude that reads as coded, constructed, and game-adjacent rather than neutral everyday text.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke a grid-built, digital aesthetic while staying typographically coherent across cases and numerals. The consistent block geometry and carved counters suggest an intention to deliver maximum impact and an unmistakably retro-tech voice in compact display text.
The design relies on interior cutouts and tight apertures for differentiation, which heightens the stylized look but can make similar shapes (notably some lowercase forms) feel closer together at smaller sizes. In display settings, the strong rectangular texture and sharp silhouette become the main character feature.
