A sharply slanted, angular display face built from chunky, polygonal strokes with clipped corners and occasional notch-like cuts. Curves are largely suppressed in favor of straight segments, producing squarish counters (notably in O, D, and 0) and a techno, constructed feel. Stroke endings look roughened or chiseled rather than smoothly finished, adding a gritty, hand-cut texture. Proportions are compact and upright in structure but strongly forward-leaning, with a tall lowercase presence and assertive, blocky numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, titles, and punchy headlines where the angular texture can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for game UI elements, esports or tech-leaning branding, and packaging or album-cover typography that benefits from a gritty, energetic voice.
The overall tone is kinetic and unconventional—like speed lettering rendered through a hard-edged stencil or scraped marker. Its jagged terminals and skewed geometry give it a slightly anarchic, game-like attitude that reads as bold and restless rather than refined.
The design appears intended to combine a forward-leaning, speed-driven silhouette with hard, geometric construction and intentionally rough finishing. The goal seems to be a distinctive, high-attitude display look that feels engineered yet imperfect—more expressive and characterful than neutral.
The alphabet shows deliberate irregularity in edge treatment and internal angles, creating a lively rhythm across words. The square-ish bowls and angled joins maintain a consistent geometric skeleton, while the rough contours keep it from feeling purely mechanical.
