Author's note

Ritalin ExtraBold by Apostrophic Laboratories is a free rounded display font with a chunky, soft-edged rhythm and a lightly retro-futurist mood. The letters feel blunt and friendly rather than strict, mixing broad curves with clipped joins and compact forms that give words a dense, slightly quirky pulse.

It fits poster headlines, music packaging, youth branding, magazine cover lines, app promos, and title cards where you want something bold without turning hard or aggressive. As a free font, it also makes sense for short logos, pull quotes, and large navigation labels, because the rounded weight keeps brief phrases feeling playful and immediate.
