Sans Faceted Syky 2 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'QB One' by BoxTube Labs and 'Retro 86' by Parker Creative (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with octagonal construction and sharply chamfered corners replacing curves. Strokes are uniform and square-ended, producing crisp edges and a compact, mechanical rhythm. Counters tend to be rectangular and tightly cut, with notched joins and faceted terminals that create a consistent planar look across rounds and diagonals. Uppercase forms read as sturdy and architectural, while the lowercase keeps the same angular vocabulary, with simplified bowls and short, squared shoulders that prioritize solidity over calligraphic nuance.
Best suited to display applications where impact and a technical, industrial flavor are desired—headlines, posters, branding marks, product packaging, and sports or event graphics. It can also work for UI titles, game/arcade visuals, and short labels where the faceted geometry reinforces a rugged, engineered mood.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, evoking industrial labeling, sport numerals, and retro arcade or sci‑fi interfaces. Its faceted geometry feels engineered and utilitarian, projecting strength, urgency, and a distinctly synthetic character.
This font appears designed to translate a faceted, octagonal motif into a full alphanumeric set, maximizing weight and presence while keeping forms highly geometric and consistent. The intent reads as delivering a strong, modern-industrial voice that remains legible at display sizes and retains a distinctive, machined silhouette.
The design emphasizes recognizability through geometry: many traditionally rounded letters are resolved with straight segments and clipped corners, giving a cohesive "machined" texture in text. Numerals follow the same octagonal logic, enhancing a scoreboard or equipment-marking impression. In dense settings the tight counters and sharp interior corners create a darker, high-impact color that benefits from generous spacing and display sizes.
