A compact, blocky display face with slightly uneven contours and a hand-cut feel. Letters are built from tall, squarish forms with rounded corners and lively, wobbled edges, creating an intentionally imperfect rhythm across words. The design reads as filled outlines with internal cut-outs that vary by glyph, producing a distinctive inverted, hollowed look and strong black–white interplay. Counters are simplified and often asymmetrical, and the overall texture is dense and punchy even at moderate sizes.
Best suited to short display settings where its cut-out interiors and lively outlines can be appreciated—posters, cover art, event flyers, playful packaging, stickers, and comic or game UI headlines. It can work in brief subheads, but the dense texture and irregular counters make it less ideal for long paragraphs or very small sizes.
The font conveys a playful, mischievous tone—somewhere between comic signage and DIY poster lettering. Its irregular edges and cut-out interiors give it a crafty, zine-like energy that feels informal, bold, and attention-seeking rather than refined.
Likely designed as a characterful display font that mimics hand-drawn or hand-cut letterforms while leveraging an inverted, hollowed construction for extra visual punch. The goal appears to be instant personality and high shelf/scroll impact, with consistent chunky geometry and intentionally imperfect edges.
Spacing appears fairly tight and the heavy outer shapes create a strong horizontal banding in text. The numerals and uppercase maintain the same chunky, squared construction, helping headlines feel cohesive, while small interior openings suggest using it at larger sizes for maximum clarity.
