A jagged, hand-cut display face with chunky strokes and sharply faceted corners, as if carved from paper or stone. Letterforms keep mostly upright posture but vary in width and internal proportions, creating a lively, uneven rhythm across words. Counters are small and often polygonal, and terminals end in blunt, broken shapes rather than smooth curves. The overall texture is dense and high-impact, with intentionally rough outlines that read like a stamped or cutout silhouette.
Best suited for short, prominent text where texture and personality are desirable—posters, headlines, event flyers, album/cover art, and title treatments for games or playful branding. It can also work for small bursts of emphasis (labels, callouts), but the rough contours and variable widths make it less appropriate for long-form reading.
The font projects a quirky, mischievous energy—part punk flyer, part Halloween prop—balancing humor with a slightly spooky, scrappy edge. Its irregularity feels intentionally wacky and handmade, adding character and motion even in short phrases.
The design appears intended to mimic a handmade, chiseled or cutout aesthetic with intentionally irregular outlines, prioritizing expressive texture and novelty over typographic neutrality. It aims to deliver instant visual character and a slightly spooky, comedic tone in display settings.
Uppercase forms appear especially blocky and compact, while lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic shapes and occasional tall, narrow strokes that amplify the uneven cadence. Numerals follow the same cut-paper geometry, staying bold and attention-grabbing rather than neutral or utilitarian.
