A heavy, geometric sans with superelliptical construction: stems and bowls are built from rounded-rectangle forms with large radii and flattened curves. Terminals are consistently softened, counters tend to be compact, and several letters show squared apertures and notched joins that create a subtly modular, almost cut-out feel. The rhythm is tightly packed and sturdy, with short extenders, broad shoulders, and simplified curves that favor strong silhouettes over delicate detail.
Best suited for headlines, branding, and short bursts of text where bold shapes and distinctive silhouettes are an asset. It works well for posters, packaging, and tech or entertainment themes (games, sci-fi, retro computing), and can also serve as a punchy UI/display face at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels retro-futurist and game-adjacent—friendly and playful, yet industrial and techy. Its chunky shapes and softened corners give it an approachable character, while the squared curves and occasional notches add a synthetic, display-oriented edge.
The design appears intended to translate a superellipse/rounded-rectangle system into a robust display sans, prioritizing cohesive geometry and strong presence. The notched details and compact counters suggest an aim for a stylized, engineered look that remains friendly through consistently rounded terminals.
The sample text shows high visual density and strong word shapes, with distinctive forms for letters like a, e, g, q, and w that lean into the rounded-rectangle theme. Numerals match the same modular geometry, keeping a consistent, poster-ready texture across alphanumerics.
