A heavy, chunky display face with irregular, hand-cut silhouettes and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes are mostly monolinear in feel but interrupted by nicks, notches, and torn-looking bite marks that create rough internal edges and occasional wedge-like cutouts. Counters are generally round and compact, while terminals vary from blunt to sharply clipped, giving each glyph a slightly different footprint. The overall texture is dense and high-impact, with intentionally inconsistent curves and angles that read as crafted rather than mechanically geometric.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing copy such as posters, event flyers, game or animation titles, packaging callouts, and playful branding accents. It’s also a natural fit for seasonal or spooky themes where a rough, cut-out texture adds character, especially at display sizes.
The font projects a mischievous, off-kilter personality—part cartoon, part cut-paper collage. Its distressed, chipped shapes add a hint of creepiness and slapstick menace, making it feel energetic and unruly rather than refined. The bouncy baseline and irregular edges create a sense of motion and improvisation.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate impact through exaggerated weight and deliberately imperfect contours, mimicking cut paper or distressed stencil shapes. Its goal is expressiveness over neutrality, emphasizing humor, chaos, and personality in display typography.
In longer text, the rough cutouts and uneven contours build a strong black texture that can overwhelm at small sizes; it performs best when given room to breathe. Numerals and capitals match the same torn, irregular language, keeping the set visually cohesive for headline-driven layouts.
