i don't believe anyone has "good-faith" concerns about trans women in sports in 2026. there's been too much time to hear the actual evidence, the actual people affected, and the role the debate plays in attempts to purge trans people from American life. anybody picking that side has made a choice

Some sad news regarding today’s release:

Fans of our games may be interested to know that our long-term collaborator Richard Hogg has a new website up at www.h099.com He's done deep-dives into the art direction process for Flock & I Am Dead, as well as tons of assorted visual treats from his past work which should delight true Hoggheads
