A heavy, forward-slanted sans with wide, compact letterforms and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and consistent, with softly squared corners and subtly tapered joins that keep counters open in letters like a, e, and s. The overall geometry favors broad bowls, short apertures, and flattened curves, producing a sturdy, low-contrast silhouette. Spacing reads tight and energetic in text, with strong horizontal emphasis and a cohesive, blocky rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to large-scale typography where impact is the goal: headlines, poster systems, sports or esports branding, product packaging, and punchy title cards. It can work for short blurbs or slogans, but its dense weight and strong slant make it less comfortable for extended reading at small sizes.
The font projects speed and impact, combining a sporty, competitive feel with a slightly retro, arcade-like robustness. Its slant and chunky forms create a sense of motion and confidence, making the tone loud, upbeat, and attention-seeking rather than refined or quiet.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a streamlined, rounded-rectangular aesthetic and a built-in sense of motion. By pairing chunky proportions with a consistent slant and open counters, it aims to stay readable while still feeling bold, fast, and modern.
Uppercase forms lean toward simple, powerful shapes, while the lowercase shows single-storey structures (notably a and g) that reinforce a contemporary display voice. Numerals are similarly stout and rounded, matching the letterforms’ superelliptic feel and maintaining strong legibility at large sizes.
