Sans Superellipse Tyny 2 is a bold, very narrow, low contrast, italic, tall x-height font visually similar to 'FF Good Headline' by FontFont, 'Sztos' by Machalski, 'East' by Tarallo Design, 'Fingerprint' by TypeArt Foundry, and 'Cervino' by Typoforge Studio (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed, forward-leaning sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes stay largely even, with crisp, slightly tapered terminals that give the outlines a cut, brushless feel rather than geometric sterility. Counters are compact and vertical, curves are squarish and controlled, and joins keep a firm, engineered rhythm. The lowercase is tall and narrow with simple, sturdy forms, while figures are similarly compressed and punchy, maintaining consistent width economy across the set.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a compact footprint and high visual drive are desirable. It also works well on packaging and promotional graphics that need condensed emphasis and a contemporary-retro tone. In longer settings it will read as a stylized display italic, so it’s most effective when used for short bursts of copy, subheads, and callouts.
The overall tone feels fast and assertive, combining a modern condensed presence with a slightly vintage, sign-paint–adjacent grit. Its narrow, slanted posture reads as active and performance-oriented, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than harsh. The result is a confident display voice that suggests motion and urgency without becoming chaotic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, pairing condensed proportions with softened, rounded-rectangular forms for a distinctive, high-energy voice. The consistent stroke weight and controlled curves suggest an aim for bold legibility at display sizes while keeping a friendly, approachable edge.
The italics-like slant is strong enough to influence word shapes noticeably, creating a pronounced rightward momentum in text lines. Rounded corners and blunt, squared curves (especially in O/C-like forms) reinforce a superelliptic, compressed silhouette that remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
