A narrow, upright text face with hand-drawn construction and visibly roughened outlines. Strokes show medium contrast with slightly uneven weight distribution, as if made with a brush-pen or worn marker, producing soft tapering and occasional blobby terminals. Curves are gently squarish and counters stay open, while baselines and cap alignment feel subtly irregular, creating a lively rhythm. Widths vary across letters and figures, and the numerals and punctuation share the same textured, imperfect edge behavior.
This font works best where a handcrafted, slightly worn voice is desirable: posters, packaging, labels, café menus, and book or game cover titling. It can also support short passages or pull quotes at comfortable sizes, where the textured edges add character without overwhelming readability.
The overall tone is informal and human, with a lightly distressed print/ink texture that reads friendly rather than harsh. It suggests handmade craft, casual notes, and a slightly whimsical, storybook sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a straightforward, narrow handwritten text style while adding a controlled distressed texture for warmth and authenticity. The consistent roughness and modest contrast aim to evoke ink-on-paper imperfection and a casual, approachable feel in display and branding contexts.
Uppercase forms are tall and simple, while lowercase characters lean toward single-story, handwritten shapes, keeping recognition high even with the rough edges. The texture is consistent across the set, so the distressed effect reads as an intentional surface treatment rather than random noise.
