Anything you can share about the crash, like where you were, what error you were shown, etc? Was your progress ok when you started the game again?
I had just gone back to the beginning of Zulag one to do a secret I missed and was on my way back to the stockyard escape. It loaded the segment that has the orange glow and the slig in the background and pretty much crashed as soon as it was loaded. Don't remember the specific error (if it even gave one). Saves were alright, though. I started right back at that point, luckily.

Apart from GameSpeak being on four buttons with a modifier, and other things tied to differences in gameplay, is there anything in particular you feel limited by?
Being able to map the gamespeak to each key would have been nice. The settings menu doesn't specify what entry does what, so it requires a certain amount of fiddling to get it right. For example, right now I have the all o'ya key mapped to 4, but I'm used to it being 6 and I'm not sure if it's possible to easily change that.

Also the throwing of objects is fairly weird for keyboard users. Having to press and hold one key, aiming with two more and then pressing a fourth key to actually throw. It's rather unintuitive and I'd liked to have seen a different solution for it.

You sure can.
Yeah I just checked that out and it is indeed possible. Must have missed that.
