A compact, rounded-rectangle sans with soft corners and largely uniform stroke weight. Forms are built from straight segments and superellipse-like curves, producing squarish bowls and counters (notably in O, C, and G) with a slightly modular, constructed feel. Proportions skew tall and condensed, with small apertures and generous ink coverage that keeps color dense and consistent. Terminals are blunt and rounded, and the overall rhythm is steady, with a few glyphs showing subtly idiosyncratic joins and angled strokes that add character without breaking cohesion.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its dense color and condensed build can create impact—headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging callouts, and interface or on-screen labels. It also works for themed graphics that benefit from a retro-tech, modular look, rather than long-form reading.
The font reads as retro-futuristic and game-adjacent, mixing friendly rounded edges with a sturdy, engineered presence. Its compact geometry and heavy silhouette give it a confident, utility-driven tone, while the quirky construction keeps it informal and expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans that feels both modern and nostalgic, using rounded-rectangle geometry to stay friendly while maintaining a sturdy, engineered silhouette for bold display typography.
At text sizes it maintains strong presence but can feel tight due to narrow apertures and compressed spacing, especially in dense paragraphs. Numerals and capitals match the same squared-round construction, helping layouts feel unified in UI-like settings.
