Long Dark Alpha crashes after 'press any key'

[Ben10]

I just bought the Alpha version of long dark from steam. Once the game finished downloading I opened it and it crashed immediately right after i pressed a key to start the game. My computer meets all the minimum requirements to run the game: window 7 professional, 4GB RAM, i5 dual core cpu, and NVIDIA NVS 3100m with 512 MB video RAM.  Here is the first few lines of the error report:
Unity Player [version: Unity 5.3.4f1_fdbb5133b820]
KERNELBASE.dll caused an Unknown exception type (0xe0434f4d)
  in module KERNELBASE.dll at 0023:74fdb727.

Any idea how to make it work?
I zipped the error folder and uploaded it to dropbox so you can take a look: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jpqhnohfaj1ieez/2016-05-21_161536_zip.zip?dl=0
Please help.  Thanks,
Ben
