This is the monthly update build for November. It focuses on adding storyline to The Picnic in the form of a number of routes for Shelly and Sheldon. As always, writing is the lions share of work left in the game. It takes time but I will keep releasing monthly updates until it is done.

You can reach The Picnic by

progressing through the Mossbacks storyline without killing them.

If you're having trouble finding this section of the game reach out on the official Discord and talk to people in the #Heartbound channel. You can reach this channel by selecting the Heartbound role under #channels-and-roles. There are a ton of routes so it can be unwieldly to find specific areas at times.
