A lively, hand-drawn print face with a noticeably condensed stance and a consistent leftward slant. Strokes are thick and brush-like, tapering into sharp, wedgey terminals and occasional pointed hooks. Letterforms favor angular joins and faceted curves over smooth geometry, with intentionally uneven contours that keep the rhythm energetic. Spacing and widths vary by character, reinforcing an organic, made-by-hand texture while maintaining clear silhouettes in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, covers, game or film titles, and event flyers where its energetic texture can be appreciated. It can also work for logos or packaging accents that want a hand-crafted, slightly aggressive voice, especially at larger sizes.
The overall tone is mischievous and slightly menacing, mixing comic energy with a scratchy, street-poster attitude. Its sharp terminals and restless slant give it a rebellious, improvisational feel, while the bold presence keeps it loud and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to mimic quick brush lettering with deliberate roughness and sharp, stylized terminals—prioritizing personality and motion over typographic neutrality. It aims to deliver an expressive display voice that feels spontaneous, bold, and characterful.
Numbers and capitals carry the same jagged brush construction as the alphabet, with distinctive pointed diagonals and hooked endings that read well at display sizes. In longer lines, the strong slant and angularity create a fast, swooping motion across the baseline, making it feel more like drawn lettering than a restrained text face.
