A rounded, irregular display face with a hand-drawn feel and subtly varying letter widths. Strokes are moderately thick with soft, blobby terminals and gently swelling curves that create a bouncy rhythm. Counters are generally open and rounded, while joins and shoulders show intentional wobble and asymmetry rather than strict geometry. The lowercase includes a single-storey a and g, with compact, simplified forms and a generally upright stance.
Best suited to short display settings where personality matters: posters, playful branding, packaging, party or event flyers, and attention-grabbing headlines. It can also work for large-size captions or pull quotes when a casual, humorous tone is desired.
The font reads as cheerful and mischievous, like a casual marker or cartoon caption with intentional roughness. Its uneven contours and soft endings give it a friendly, approachable tone that feels humorous rather than formal.
The design appears intended to emulate an expressive, hand-rendered look with controlled irregularity—prioritizing charm and character over typographic precision. Its rounded construction and lively stroke behavior aim to keep text feeling warm, quirky, and animated in display use.
Caps and lowercase share the same soft, bulbous construction, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case setting. Numerals are similarly rounded and slightly idiosyncratic, matching the face’s informal personality; overall spacing appears on the loose side, aiding readability in short bursts.
