Sans Other Onjy 8 is a bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Memory Square' by Beware of the moose and 'Architype Van Doesburg' by The Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A block-constructed sans with hard 90° corners, rectilinear curves, and consistent stroke thickness. Bowls and counters are mostly squared-off and often open at a corner, creating stencil-like breaks and a modular, grid-driven rhythm. Proportions are expansive and horizontal, with compact apertures, a high x-height, and simple geometric terminals that keep silhouettes crisp at display sizes. Numerals and punctuation follow the same squared logic, maintaining a cohesive, systematized texture across lines.
Best suited to display roles such as game UI labels, techno posters, sci‑fi titles, branding marks, packaging accents, and bold wayfinding where the blocky geometry can read cleanly. It can work for short interface strings or captions when spaced comfortably, but it’s most effective in larger sizes where the corner cuts and squared counters remain distinct.
The face reads as retro-digital and game-adjacent, with an arcade/terminal flavor that feels engineered rather than handwritten. Its sharp geometry and deliberate cut-ins give it a mechanical, sci‑fi tone that suggests interfaces, signage, and hardware aesthetics.
The design appears intended to evoke a modular, screen-native construction—combining a strict rectangular skeleton with small stencil-like interruptions to keep forms recognizable while amplifying a digital/industrial personality.
Several glyphs feature purposeful corner notches and open joins (notably in curved letters), which adds character but also increases visual noise in dense settings. The wide footprint and angular forms create a strong horizontal tempo; tracking and generous line spacing help keep words from clumping in longer text.
