Sans Superellipse Etdul 3 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Bantat' by Jipatype, 'First Prize' by Letterhead Studio-VG, 'Core Mellow' by S-Core, and 'Geon' and 'Geon Soft' by cretype (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, right-leaning sans with thick, even strokes and rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction throughout. Counters are tight and apertures are relatively closed, creating dense word shapes and strong horizontal momentum. Terminals are clean and rounded rather than sharply cut, and curves resolve into squared-off bowls, giving letters a sturdy, engineered feel. The uppercase is tall and compressed, while the lowercase remains similarly condensed with a straightforward, utilitarian rhythm and minimal detailing.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It also works well for logos or badges where a condensed, forward-leaning silhouette helps maintain presence in limited horizontal space.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, with an energetic slant that suggests motion and impact. Its heavy, compact silhouettes feel confident and attention-grabbing, leaning toward a sporty, promotional voice rather than a quiet editorial one.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a tight footprint, combining a strong italic stance with rounded-rect forms for a modern, industrial smoothness. Its simplified shapes and heavy weight prioritize immediacy and recognizability over nuanced text comfort.
The numerals share the same compact, rounded-rect geometry, reading like bold blocks with softened corners. In text, spacing appears tight and the heavy joins and narrow counters can cause dark texture in longer passages, making it most effective when used at larger sizes or with generous tracking.
