+| I dunno. It's really great. I love [[edf_series|the whole series]] though. I think I like //5// more, but probably prefer a lot of the stages in //4//. |||
-| In Wine there's an annoying issue where some font isn't loading. Most of the text is fine, but which difficulty you're selecting is garbled which is a problem in online multiplayer. <del>Entering chat text crashes the game too, though you can still use the pre-determined phrases. Apparently you have to create the save file in a Windows system too, though mine was already made before I tried on Linux.</del> (Text entry works fine now) |||

-| A bit slow to start compared to other entries, but some of the improvements are really nice: completing a stage on 'hard' difficulty clears it on all lower difficulties too, wing diver has some nice extra moves, you can find weapons and armour for all classes, the pillbugs are back! |||

-| <del>Like in //4.1// you still need to create a file on a Windows machines, and freely typing text in multiplayer will also crash the game.</del> (Text entry works for me now!) The scrambled text has be cleaned up though! <del>The big annoyance are unavoidable crashes on some stages, online and offline. Avoid buying until that's fixed in Proton.</del> (also no more unavoidable, predictable crashes!) |||

+| Has some real boring bits where you're repeating no-fighting stuff, but it's real good, probably my fave in terms of actually getting into the story. The extra weapon slot is a real good addition, especially for wing diver and ranger. |||

 | Fun but unexceptional cute action thing. |||

+^ //Judero// ''[demo]'' | |
+| Opens with an incredibly annoyingly voiced character. Horrible folk music. Graphics are nice, especially the backgrounds---some of the NPCs too, there's a lot of fighting and it's just pressing the mouse button a lot and really boring, bland puzzles and stuff. It's basically a really uninventive Zelda clone with interesting graphics. Thought I was gunna be into it. ||

 ^ //Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess// ''[demo]'' | Wine: **perfect** | |
 | I thought there was going to be more to it. Slightly [[tower defence]]y, plus there's a bit of a scramble to find different things around the stage, plus it's a real basic action game. I kind of like it, but can't imagine ever buying it. |||

-^ //Micesweeper// | Wine: **perfect** | |
-| [[mimesweeper]] game where you move a little mouse instead of an actual mouse, with [[nonogame]]-like hints too. Really neat. |||

 ^ //[[let_it_die]]// | Wine: **perfect** | also on: PS4 |
 | Pretty fun. Some nice janky platforming. Lots of imagination. Got a bit tired of all the grossness and wet sound effects. Uninstalled on the third section. Combat's pretty crummy. |||

 | <3 One of my faves, and I still play it a bunch. Fun on my own, fun with pals. Unfortunately, dropped Linux and Mac support. |||
+| |||
+^ //Shin Samurai Jazz// | Wine: **perfect** | |
+| Platformer with sword-based combat and lots of movement options. Lots of having to use double jumps, wall jumps, and stuff to get around levels. I hate platformers with airdashing. But has a nice DIY feel otherwise. |||
