Unused Graphics#

Goal Get Sorry.
Graphics for making a goal (replaced by larger graphics in the game) and one for possibly losing a life.

Strange selection.
Country flags for France, the Netherlands, and Belgium. These are the only three flags in the game.

To HEC and back!
An unused company sponsor graphic for "HEC", which is most likely Haesung Electronic Co. Next to that is the name Haesung Electronics (海星電子) written in Chinese characters.

Version Differences#

Super Free Kick

HEC's Spinkick

This game also goes under the alternate title of "HEC's Spinkick". Other than the alternate title and publisher, the games seem identical.

Strangely, in both versions, the high score list says "HEC'S SPINKICK BEST 5" but the hidden copyright text says "SUPER FREEKICK".
