A few minor fixes

Banned player pausing the game during cutscenes (I think this was occasionally causing bugs)
Made a bunch of typo/spelling/grammatical fixes
Changed the way vsynch works to try and cap FPS on high refresh monitor settings
Added a new source of memories in chapter 8

Additional Notes:
The game has been out a week now, and I'm hoping most of the initial bugs have been fixed now. As long as nothing terrible crops up the pace of patches might slow down a bit from now on.

Thanks for the feedback and typo spots etc. Its hard to catch everything when you are a solo dev so I appreciate the all the reports and the patience of anyone who waited for a fix or feedback. Thank you everyone for your support!
