The
new Kangaroo Freeplay ROMs have the following features:
- The INSERT COINS
prompt is removed from Attract Mode
- Instead of CREDIT = 00
it shows FREEPLAY, so you know it's in Freeplay
- Walk up to game
and press 1 or 2 player start, no need for coins
- Attract mode runs,
game will not freeze on the Press 1 or 2 player screen
- New Freeplay ROMs use
same DIP setting as the faulty Freeplay mode.

There's not much going on in the
Kangaroo code, but here is a snipet anyway.
