A heavy, block-built sans with sharply angled joins, squared counters, and a distinctly irregular, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes are mostly uniform in weight, with frequent diagonal chops on terminals and corners that create a faceted, almost stencil-like rhythm. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a lively, uneven texture in words while keeping a consistent geometric, rectilinear construction. Numerals and capitals read as compact, monolithic shapes with tight apertures and small, square interior spaces.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, cover art, logos, packaging, and entertainment or game-related graphics. It can work for labels or UI headings where a distinctive, rugged voice is desired, but it is less comfortable for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and playful with a gritty edge—evoking arcade title screens, DIY signage, and cut-paper or carved-letter aesthetics. Its jittery, angular forms feel energetic and a bit mischievous rather than refined or corporate.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual punch through chunky geometry and intentionally roughened, faceted corners. Its inconsistent widths and chopped terminals suggest an aim toward a hand-made, retro-digital or street-sign feel rather than strict typographic regularity.
The design relies on strong negative-space blocks and small counters, so shapes can close up quickly as size drops. The deliberately irregular outlines and varying widths add character in display settings but create a busy color in dense paragraphs.
