A bouncy, hand-drawn outline face with chunky, rounded contours and intentionally uneven stroke edges. The glyphs lean slightly and show lively, wavy outlines with frequent bulges and soft corners, giving the contours a sketched, organic rhythm. Counters are generally open and simple, with generous interior space created by the hollow construction, and the outline thickness stays fairly consistent while wobbling subtly. Proportions vary from letter to letter, reinforcing an informal, variable-width feel; uppercase forms are broad and friendly, while lowercase has compact, single-storey constructions and simplified terminals.
Well-suited to display settings where personality is more important than dense readability—posters, playful branding, packaging, event flyers, stickers, and short headlines. It can also work for kids-focused materials and comic-style captions when set with comfortable tracking and ample size.
The font reads as playful and casual, with a comic, doodled energy that feels retro and kid-friendly. Its uneven contouring adds personality and motion, making text feel animated rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to deliver an expressive, hand-drawn outline look that stays friendly and approachable, prioritizing character and visual bounce over strict geometric consistency.
At larger sizes the wobbly outline detail becomes a key feature, while at smaller sizes the hollow construction and irregular edges may reduce clarity compared to a solid text face. Numerals match the same rounded, cartoon outline style, supporting headline and display use.
