about

The soundtrack to the award-winning* 'Buy Hyacinths', a game about one of the first sheep to go to a human university. The game scooped a bronze medal at the 2022 Queer Games Festival in Melbourne.

The soundtrack won nothing in particular, but one track seems to have won some hearts: 'Bees!' is the most popular track, so this 1st Anniversary release of the soundtrack includes a Bees! remix by Jonno Taylor.
