Sans Other Ofby 6 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Outlast' by BoxTube Labs, 'Mako' by Deltatype, 'Angulosa M.8' and 'Maiers Nr. 8 Pro' by Ingo, 'Pcast' by Jipatype, and 'Mountain' by Volcano Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, condensed sans with a rigid, rectilinear construction. Strokes are consistently thick and largely monolinear, with corners cut into sharp angles and occasional chamfered terminals that create a faceted, engineered feel. Counters are mostly square or rectangular, spacing is tight, and the overall silhouette reads like modular blocks with minimal curvature; diagonals appear in select letters (e.g., V/W/X/Y) but remain straight-edged and abrupt. The lowercase follows the same architectural logic as the uppercase, with compact bowls and clipped joins that keep the texture dense and uniform.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headers, title cards, gaming/UI overlays, team or event graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It will perform most confidently when given room and size so the angular details and tight internal spaces remain legible.
The tone is bold and functional, evoking industrial labeling, arcade-era display typography, and hard-edged tech aesthetics. Its strict geometry and dark color make it feel commanding and mechanical rather than friendly or expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a compact footprint, using strict geometric forms and clipped terminals to project a rugged, machine-made identity.
At text sizes the dense texture and angular apertures can reduce differentiation between similar shapes, while at larger sizes the distinctive cuts and squared counters become the main character cues. Numerals match the same boxy logic, reinforcing a signage-like, encoded look.
