Patch notes:

We have fixed several memory leak issues that were reserving system resources and caused the game to slow down after lengthy gameplay sessions or after repeatedly loading saved games.
Fixed:

- Fixed minor text errors in Episode "Greatest Snow on Earth"
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused character models to change appearance upon save/load
- Adjusted timing of episode title cards
- Fixed a bug that allowed multiple instances of the Setup.exe to run, giving the message, "Another Instance of this setup is already running"
- Added correct system requirements to User Guide.pdf and Readme.txt
- Updated readme.txt to indicate correct default paths
- The icon for "Confidante/Lover" in the user guide is now consistent with what is in the game
