A heavy, rounded-rectilinear sans with a modular, “soft-square” construction. Strokes are thick and confident, with noticeable thinning at joins and inside corners that reads like built-in ink-trap behavior, helping counters stay open despite the weight. Terminals are mostly squared with generous corner rounding, producing a blocky silhouette without sharpness. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed in feel, with tall ascenders and descenders kept disciplined, and a generally uniform rhythm suited to headline settings.
Best used for display work where bold shapes and strong texture are desirable: headlines, posters, branding wordmarks, packaging, and tech- or game-themed UI titles. It also suits labels, badges, and short callouts where its compact, modular forms can carry personality at a glance.
The overall tone is bold and synthetic, evoking retro arcade signage, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Rounded corners add friendliness and approachability, while the dense weight and squared geometry keep it assertive and mechanical. It balances playful character with a utilitarian, engineered vibe.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, sans foundation while injecting a distinctive geometric voice through rounded-square forms and corner thinning for legibility at heavy weight. It aims to read as modern-mechanical with a nostalgic, arcade-adjacent flavor.
Distinctive angular curves and tight apertures give letters a stamped, equipment-like presence, especially in forms such as S, G, and Z. The numerals match the same blocky logic and maintain clear differentiation at large sizes. Spacing appears designed for impact rather than subtle text color, with strong word shapes in short lines.
