Major updates:
All the events right before and during the night of the party.
One alternative ending.
Minor updates:
Removed the font change during the dream sequence in the beginning because it wasn't supposed to be there. I hope this didn't confuse anyone.
Removed the font change when Gretchen is threatened during the phone call. I figured it would be too difficult to read if the killer would have his own font.
Fixed a song not playing during the "We love our cops" - ending.
Minor fixes.
A splash screen right when the game starts
