A jagged, hand-drawn display face with sharp, angular construction and an energetic rightward slant. Strokes are narrow and often taper or flare, mimicking quick marker or brush pressure, with frequent pointed terminals and wedge-like joins. Counters skew geometric and irregular—several forms use diamond or triangular interiors—and proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating a deliberately uneven rhythm. The lowercase is simplified and sketchy, with single-storey forms and occasional long ascenders/descenders that add to the restless texture; numerals follow the same angular, improvised logic.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, covers, event flyers, game or comic titling, and zine-style layouts where a rough, handmade voice is desirable. It can also work for packaging accents or social graphics when used at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The tone is mischievous and offbeat, reading like graffiti-adjacent handwriting or a stylized “scribbled” caption. Its spiky silhouettes and inconsistent geometry give it a rebellious, comic energy that feels more expressive than refined.
Likely intended to deliver a distinctive, intentionally imperfect hand-rendered look—prioritizing character and motion over typographic neutrality. The angular, tapered strokes and irregular widths appear designed to feel spontaneous and personal, like lettering drawn quickly with a felt-tip or brush pen.
The design leans on strong diagonals and asymmetric shapes, producing a lively, broken baseline feel even when set on a line. Several characters rely on highly simplified, emblem-like structures, so word shapes can become the dominant cue more than individual letter clarity at smaller sizes.
