A heavy, hand-drawn display face with thick, rounded strokes and noticeably irregular outlines. Edges appear rough and worn, with small nicks and occasional interior voids that mimic blotchy ink or distressed printing. Letterforms are simple and upright, with soft corners and variable stroke endings that create an uneven baseline and lively rhythm. Counters tend to be compact and somewhat uneven, contributing to a dense, textured silhouette at text sizes.
This font is well suited to short, high-impact settings where texture is an asset: posters, headlines, merchandise graphics, and packaging with a handmade or gritty theme. It can also work for title cards, album/track art, and game or event graphics where a rough, inked personality helps set the mood. For longer passages, it reads best at larger sizes where the distressed details remain clear.
The overall tone is gritty and handmade, balancing a playful cartoon energy with a worn, DIY roughness. It suggests street-level immediacy—like paint, marker, or stamped ink—making it feel informal, slightly rebellious, and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to emulate thick, imperfect hand lettering with distressed ink behavior, prioritizing personality and texture over crisp typographic precision. Its simplified forms and chunky weight aim for strong silhouette recognition while the roughened edges add a deliberately worn, analog feel.
The distressing is consistent across the set, giving uniform texture while still letting individual glyphs vary in width and shape. Numerals and caps carry the same blotted, chunky presence as the lowercase, helping maintain a cohesive look in mixed copy.
