A heavy, rounded sans with superellipse-inspired bowls and a compact, blocky footprint. Strokes stay consistently thick, while many terminals are finished with sharp, angled cuts that create a notched, chiseled rhythm across the alphabet. Curves are broad and smooth, counters are relatively open for the weight, and joins feel sturdy and geometric. Uppercase forms read wide and stable, while lowercase keeps simplified construction with single-storey shapes and short, assertive arms and tails; numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic with crisp diagonal shears on several ends.
Best used for headlines, posters, and branding where strong silhouettes and a distinctive texture are assets. It can work well for sports identities, event graphics, packaging, and game or tech-themed visuals, particularly in short bursts of text where the clipped terminals add character without overwhelming readability.
The mix of soft, inflated curves and sharp clipped terminals gives the font a punchy, energetic voice. It feels retro-futurist and game-adjacent—friendly at a distance, but with a tough, engineered edge up close. The overall tone is bold and extroverted, suited to attention-grabbing display settings.
The design appears intended to fuse rounded, approachable geometry with aggressive, angular trimming, producing a sturdy display sans that stands out in branding and titling. Its consistent stroke and superellipse-like construction suggest a focus on solid, reproducible shapes that stay recognizable at a range of display sizes.
Angled shears appear repeatedly on diagonals and ends, creating a distinctive zig-zag texture in words, especially around letters like A, K, M, N, V/W/X/Y and in several lowercase forms. Spacing looks designed to hold dense, headline-sized text together without collapsing counters, and the forms maintain a consistent geometric logic from letters to digits.
