A heavy, rounded display face with brush-like construction and visibly irregular contours. Strokes are thick and slightly uneven, with occasional nicks, ink breaks, and roughened edges that create a worn, hand-printed texture. Counters tend to be small and soft-edged, terminals are rounded, and curves have a slightly wobbly rhythm that keeps the letterforms feeling organic rather than geometric. Overall spacing and widths vary across glyphs, reinforcing the hand-drawn character while remaining legible at larger sizes.
Best suited to display typography where personality matters: posters, playful packaging, labels, event promos, and social graphics. It also works well for kids-oriented content, comic-style titling, and short brand phrases where a handmade, textured look is desirable.
The font reads as friendly and informal, with a mischievous, cartoon-like energy. Its roughened ink texture adds a casual, DIY attitude that feels approachable and lightly gritty rather than polished or corporate.
Likely designed to provide an attention-grabbing, hand-rendered headline style with built-in texture. The goal appears to be easy, friendly legibility combined with a deliberately imperfect, ink-worn finish for expressive themed designs.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent marker/brush feel, and the numerals match the same soft, chunky structure. The distressed detailing is subtle enough to preserve clear silhouettes, but strong enough to be noticeable in headlines and short phrases.
