Title.

The other day I played as Portugal, did the 28 years, then left it open for a while while I did some things, took care of dinner, talked to some people, and after a while I noticed the title screen music was gone. Turns out, the entirety of Steam had crashed, along with the game. I had to re-open Steam.

It also happened last night while I was playing Austria.

Anyone else have this happen? I want to bring this to the attention of the devs, to make sure it's not a problem in the full game, since I tend to leave things running in the background when I'm busy with other things, and I'd /hate/ to have it keep happening to me.
