A heavy, slanted sans with a faceted, cut-paper construction and strongly angular terminals. Strokes are chunky and compact with minimal contrast, and many joins form sharp corners rather than smooth curves, giving counters a polygonal feel (notably in C, G, O, and 0). The rhythm is irregular in a controlled way: widths vary by character, spacing feels tight, and the baseline is steady while the letterforms lean forward for momentum. Numerals echo the same notched geometry, with hard edges and simplified interior shapes for a bold, graphic silhouette.
Best suited to display applications where its angular mass and forward slant can carry impact—posters, headlines, sports or streetwear branding, gaming and entertainment titles, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short emphasis lines or logos where the faceted silhouette is an asset and readability is managed with spacing.
The overall tone is loud and kinetic, with a rugged, game-like attitude that reads as punchy and modern. Its jagged geometry adds a slightly rebellious, DIY edge, while the consistent forward slant suggests speed and action.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum visual punch through exaggerated weight, forward motion, and a carved, polygonal construction. The goal seems to be a contemporary, high-energy display voice that stands apart from smoother geometric or grotesque sans styles.
The design relies on distinctive corner cuts and asymmetric details (such as angled bowls and stepped terminals) to create recognizability at display sizes. In longer lines the dense color and narrow internal apertures can build texture quickly, so it benefits from generous tracking and clear hierarchy.
