A heavy, rounded display face with blobby, soft-cornered forms and frequent teardrop-like drips that hang from terminals and joins. Strokes stay broadly even, with smooth curves and minimal sharp angles, creating a liquid silhouette. Proportions are generous and open, with wide bowls and counters, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph for an uneven, hand-drawn rhythm. The baseline and terminal behavior feel intentionally inconsistent, emphasizing an irregular, organic texture across words and lines.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, event promotions, Halloween or monster-themed graphics, and playful packaging where the drippy motif can read clearly. It also works well for short headlines, stickers, and social graphics, but the intentional irregularity can become busy in long paragraphs or at very small sizes.
The font reads as playful and mischievous, with a slime or melting-ink character that leans toward spooky-fun rather than scary. Its bouncy irregularity and cartoonish weight give it a friendly, informal energy suited to lighthearted horror and novelty themes.
The design appears intended to deliver a one-of-a-kind, liquid-drip personality with a hand-made, intentionally imperfect rhythm. Its goal is to add character and thematic atmosphere—especially “slime” or “melting” associations—while remaining legible in larger, attention-grabbing text.
Several characters feature distinctive hanging droplets (notably in letters like Q, J, and many lowercase forms), which become a strong repeating motif in text. Numerals match the same soft, drippy construction, keeping the set cohesive for short headlines and punchy callouts.
