A condensed, heavy sans with a consistent rightward slant and compact proportions. The strokes are thick and even, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves shaping counters and terminals, giving letters a softened but forceful silhouette. Uppercase forms are tall and tightly fit, while lowercase has sturdy, upright stems with rounded joins and simplified construction. Overall spacing feels tight and efficient, producing a dense, high-impact texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display typography where impact and compactness matter: headlines, posters, sports and event graphics, bold packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when ample size and spacing are available to preserve clarity.
The tone is bold and energetic, combining a vintage sign-painter/sports headline feel with friendly rounded corners. Its slant adds motion and urgency, making the voice feel assertive and attention-seeking rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a narrow footprint, pairing a dynamic slant with rounded-rectangle geometry for a modernized retro flavor. Its simplified, sturdy forms prioritize immediacy and strong presence over delicate detail.
Round letters like O/Q and numerals like 0/8 show squarish, softened bowls, and many terminals appear subtly sheared to match the overall slant. The sample text shows strong word-shape presence at display sizes, with a dark, continuous rhythm that can overwhelm at smaller sizes if set too tightly.
