A compact, heavy, all-caps-friendly sans with sharp, angular construction and a distinctly uneven rhythm. Strokes are chunky and mostly monolinear, with corners that feel cut or chipped rather than smoothly drawn. Many glyphs show slight slanting or off-axis verticals and subtly inconsistent widths, creating a deliberately irregular texture. Counters are tight and often squarish (notably in B, D, O, P, R), while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y) are steep and wedge-like. Numerals follow the same blocky, cutout geometry with prominent right angles and minimal curvature.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, playful branding, product packaging, and game or entertainment UI where a bold, characterful voice is desired. It can work for logos or title treatments, but the irregular rhythm and tight counters suggest avoiding long body copy or very small sizes.
The font reads as mischievous and energetic, with a DIY, hand-cut poster quality. Its jittery consistency and chunky silhouettes give it a comic, game-like tone that feels informal and attention-grabbing rather than refined or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic cut-paper or rough block lettering while staying within a sans structure. It prioritizes personality and punch—through angular cuts, compact proportions, and controlled irregularity—over neutrality and extended readability.
Lowercase forms largely echo the uppercase structure, keeping the same rigid geometry and tight apertures, which can make case contrast feel intentionally minimal. Spacing and sidebearings appear somewhat uneven by design, contributing to a lively, slightly chaotic line color in text.
