A heavy, block-built sans with squared counters and an intentionally rough, cut-paper geometry. Strokes stay thick and fairly uniform, but edges are subtly uneven and angled, giving letters a carved, hand-shaped look rather than a purely mechanical one. Proportions vary by glyph, with compact, chunky forms and occasional notches and clipped corners that create a stepped rhythm in words. The lowercase follows the same modular construction, with small, squared apertures and simplified joins that keep the texture dense and graphic.
Best suited to display settings where strong silhouettes matter: posters, headlines, logos, game titles/UI, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short, punchy captions or labels, but the dense color and jagged detailing favor larger sizes and limited text runs.
The overall tone is loud, rugged, and playful in a slightly aggressive way—more "hand-cut poster" than neutral UI. Its angular, notched silhouettes and tight internal spaces suggest retro arcade energy and DIY signage, projecting confidence and impact over refinement.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a distinctive, hand-chopped modular voice—combining a sans foundation with angular cuts and notched details to create a rugged, attention-grabbing display style.
The squarish counters and tight spacing tendencies make the font feel especially dark at text sizes, while the irregular edges add visual noise that reads as intentional character. Numerals share the same chunky, clipped construction, supporting consistent titling and display usage.
