"My social circles are divided into three, stalwart, mutually exclusive groups.
A first of chronically online Tumblr users. I've drifted in and out of several and now exist in one with next to no ties to my home country.
A second of extremely normal heterosexuals. The worst they've seen are Instagram wellness reels and Discord does not exist to them.
And now, apparently, a third of rubber-coated kinksters who want to rearrange my guts.
I feel like someone like me shouldn't have a third.”
LATEX, LEATHER, LIPSTICK, LOVE, LUST is an interactive fiction piece for unemployed British trans men in their 20s with no career prospects whose only major social interactions happen over Discord. Other people can play it as well, I guess.
Play the game (for free!) that had people giving such rave reviews as:
"So beautiful, so intense, so funny."
"I almost cried at several points, and ended up crying at the end."
"dear god this was an experience"
"the first interactive fiction to make me feel *actually* anxious and afraid"
"[slurs]"
And won the most controversial entry in IFComp 2024!
