As for the title, LXD stands for “Liquid Xtal Dream”, and red honey, I gather, refers to a kind of honey produced when bees feed on rhododendron flowers. In real life, red honey contains grayanotoxins, which confer hallucinogenic effects in small doses. Guzzle down a lot of red honey, however, and it may kill you. Neat? You candownload LXD Red Honey from Itch here. It’s really good. It’s definitely worth donating to the developers, if you have cash to spare.
