PETA and Edmund McMillen are trolling each other again, as the activist group hand Mewgenics a "Hero to Animals Award"

PETA has awarded a "Hero to Animals Award" to Tracy Newkirk, a character from Edmund McMillen's upcoming game Mewgenics. This follows a history of satirical interactions between McMillen and the animal rights organization, including a vegan parody of Super Meat Boy and a spoof character named Tofu Boy. The award acknowledges Tracy Newkirk's in-game advocacy for cats and education on speciesism.
