Bug report: Game hangs on splash screen after player death

Hi there! First off: I love the alpha so far. This is going to be very cool when it progresses further.

So I was starting out on my adventure, built some stuff and started exploring a bit with the brand new machete I built, when I was killed by some dudes. The death screen showed and after that the game reset to presumably show the title screen again, but that didn't happen. 

It got stuck on the voided pixels studio splash screen, then I killed the process. I didn't get an error message or anything. Are there logs somewhere that I could post? 

Tried the game on windows 7 by the way.

Humm... odd. I haven't tested on Windows 7. Is this bug %100 reproducible? I should probably just  get around doing a proper death screen instead of resetting the game (like a noob). I'll just do that :)

I'll check if I can reproduce it tonight and report back. After reading someone describe a similar problem in the bugs thread, I think the game didn't freeze after all but some weird focus problem might have occurred instead.

yeah it happens for me in the new stable 0.30 as well. I die and then the game seemingly does stuff in the background, but I can only see the splash screen. I noticed that the music initializes and plays and I cannot get the game to minimize (playing fullscreen), so I can't even get into the task manager. Have to reboot. Weird, but I guess a freeze is the wrong description. Maybe I should play in windowed mode and see if that works as expected.
