A heavy, slanted display face with chunky strokes and sharply broken, chiseled edges. Letterforms feel irregular and hand-shaped, with wedge-like terminals, abrupt notches, and asymmetric counters that create a cut-paper/ink-splatter silhouette. Curves are often faceted rather than smooth, and spacing plus glyph widths vary to keep a lively, uneven rhythm. The numerals and punctuation share the same carved, jagged treatment, maintaining a consistent rough texture across the set.
Best suited to short, punchy settings such as posters, headlines, and promotional graphics where personality matters more than continuous readability. It also fits themed uses like Halloween or horror-comedy materials, arcade or party flyers, and expressive packaging or labels that want a rough, hand-cut energy.
The overall tone is loud and playful with a slightly eerie, mischievous edge. Its rough, hacked-in shapes suggest energetic motion and a deliberately messy attitude, reading as comedic, spooky, and a bit rebellious rather than refined or formal.
Likely designed as an attention-grabbing decorative face that prioritizes character and texture over typographic neutrality. The consistent jagged carving and slanted stance appear intended to inject motion and eccentricity into titles and display lines.
In longer text, the dense black shapes and irregular contours create strong texture and high visual noise, which can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. It performs best when given ample size and breathing room, where the distinctive notches and angled cuts remain legible and intentional.
