This font was created under the title of 'decay' and explores the raw natural shapes of origami or paper folding. I wanted to create a font around ripped and destroyed paper while still keeping the simplistic forms of the shapes that appear within origami.

This looks more like a font for a techno metal band (Metalectronica?) than I originally intended, but I think it is still handy. I made this to use as a pixel-perfect font for a game after no slanted or rounded outline fonts fit the bill. Numbers are taller than the x-height, but slightly shorter than the capital letters. The name is meant to sound like it fits in an ancient myth (Echidna was the mother of many beasts that featured prominently in Greek mythology), but also referenced the spiky nature of the font (the echidna is also a little australian mammal covered in spikes).
