A heavy, block-built display face with softened corners and frequent chamfered cuts that give each glyph a slightly notched, assembled look. Counters and interior openings are largely closed, creating solid silhouettes and emphasizing outer contours over internal detail. Letterforms are compact and monolinear in feel, with a tall lowercase presence and simplified joins; some characters show intentionally irregular cuts and asymmetric shaping that adds bounce to the rhythm. Spacing reads on the generous side in the sample text, helping the dense shapes separate at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, short slogans, and logo-style wordmarks where its chunky silhouettes can read cleanly. It also fits packaging, merch, and playful branding that benefits from a bold, graphic stamp-like texture rather than text-heavy layouts.
The overall tone is bold and playful, leaning toward a cartoony, arcade-like personality. The notched geometry and sealed counters make it feel punchy and graphic, with a mischievous, hand-cut quality rather than a precise industrial finish.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with simplified, solid forms and characterful corner cuts, prioritizing a strong silhouette and playful irregularity over conventional readability at small sizes.
Because the interior openings are minimized, differentiation relies on distinctive exterior silhouettes and the placement of notches and cut-ins. The texture becomes especially dark in paragraphs, while large sizes highlight the quirky contour logic and the rhythmic corner treatments.
