Hands down, we all know the answer is "International Superstar Soccer Deluxe"!
And their hacks/bootlegs (like the Peruvian and Brazilian ones) that updated the teams, the players and even increased the framerate somehow! One of the few times you could say the bootleg is even better than the original
@@ObsoleteVodka I never heard of those bootlegs, have to check them out. But I know fan romhacks which you can apply yourself to the roms. Real names from 2016: www.romhacking.net/hacks/2972/
@@ObsoleteVodka Wait, i didn't know a ISSS hack that increase the framerate. What hack it is?
Look around for Futebol Brasileiro 96, Futbol Colombiano 96 and Futbol Peruano 97. They are basically romhacks but made around the time and even sold in cartridges back then across the region (yes, piracy). On emulators they feel the same as the originals but i had both versions when i was a kid and there's definitely a speed difference on original hardware.
Players of Wii in nes and snes of swich
International Superstar Soccer Deluxe is ridiculously big here in Brazil. It's akin to Tecmo Super Bowl in the US, with fansites and even yearly tournaments. Brazil's fictional striker "Allejo" became a myth: there's a website with his name, people buy Brazil shirts and put his name on it, and there's even a documentary made by a filmmaking student, with several professional journalists talking about Allejo as if he was real. I would compare him to Bo Jackson in the original Tecmo Bowl, but Allejo never existed (only in our hearts).
RazorKaos very interesting. I need to watch that documentary. What is it called?
@@estebancruz6194 Allejo Eterno
@@vitorkk328 thank you. Obrigado.
You guys sometimrs have strange obsessions over some things like with the simpsons
As kids we were obsessed with the grey haired Carboni from Italy who assembled the real life Ravanelli :) good times, also for football.
"if you're from North Korea, you're in luck!"
First time someone said that, ever
what about the parents of Kim Jong Un?
Fun Fact: the word "soccer" was said 69 times throughout this video.
But how many times did I say "it's an early SNES game and it shows?"
@@SNESdrunk sneaky way of ya to gain views lmao, have watched this vid a total of 4times now, and I dont even like soccer lol.
But now Im able to say: "it's an early SNES game and it shows" was said 3 times (4times if you include 15:17 )!
Demyx and only North Korea, once
But how many times he said football?
Made a drinking game out of this video, now I don't remember my name.
Drunk, you could make a what Barbie games are worth playing today, and I'd still watch it.
Craig Adderley he'd find some Japanese only release that's actually pretty fun I bet lol
Dude, don't mention things that don't actually exist. Now I'm bummed out that there isn't one. (Just found the channel today, and I love it.)
Eventually he'll have to...
Do this lol ^^^^^
“Lothar Matt House” 🤣🤣🤣
Lothar Matthäus. He was one of the best German football player.
Sammy that went over your head.
@@Chayaen Not as good as Kay H. Roomanegg though
Doubt I'll ever play a SNES soccer game again in my life, but always love a new SNESdrunk vid 🤘
The good games (international superstar soccer) are fun in two player mode though
Sorry to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Jaime Imran Instablaster :)
What did we do to deserve two drunk videos in two days?
The planetz alined n it was a full moon n it mf Friday
As a south american who loves soccer and had a snes as a teenager, I must say: INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR SOCCER DELUXE, anything else is nonsense.
I still play it today when I have some spare time.
Greetings from Chile!
international superstar soccer is the best :)
Yep, even to this day, the international superstar soccer series (now called Pro Evolution Soccer) is still the best football games series. It's a lot more realistic than the FIFA games, and that means it can be too difficult to play for some gamers, but it's worth it if you put in the time to learn how to play it.
Agreed it was my favourite football game in the 16bit era.
I may be wrong but I believe it was the first football game to let you edit the kits
Allejo é melhor que o Pelé
Yep. Deluxe. Was a great game and caused many many fights between my friends lol
ISS Deluxe was the best.
Since Konami made such great soccer games I would love to have seen some Castlevania Soccer.
Mmmmmmmmmm! So many possibilities.
Richter Belmont: Die, monster! You don't belong on this field!
Dracula: It was not by my hand that I am once again playing 'the soccer'. I was called here by *humans* who wished to watch me score 'the points'!
Richter: Watch you!?! You steal men's goals and make them your slaves!
Dracula: Perhaps the same could be said of all sports...
I second this. The possibilities are there. I mean they ARE STILL cranking out PES games.
Now imagine a Parodius one.
"What is a ball? A miserable little bag of air, but enough talk, have at you" - takes penalty
Here in Brazil, as you may know, people really like footbal (soccer). ISS was HUGELY popular back in the day, and there was A LOT fo hacked cartdriges of it, like "Ronaldinho Soccer" or "Campeonato Brasileiro 96", with the teams and players modded to match the actual brazilian championship of the year. It was very fun!
Very nice video!
Fun facts about International Superstar Soccer:
Well, soccer is ridiculously popular here in Brazil, and I can say... No other entry has become so popular overnight as ISS. If there was any hint of 16-bit console war still going on then, it ended that moment. The fictional player characters (as it was not licensed) are still praised in pop culture, and the Brazil's team striker, a guy named Allejo (what the heck of a name is it anyway?) became a nationwide TV/internet ad superstar. There are still championship going on for this game, and the bootlegs are always up to date with the Champions League, Brazilian Série A, Libertadores Cup and so many other leagues around the globe.
From a gamer perspective, we can say its gameplay kind of paved the road for future entries. From a Brazilian perspective though, this game was nothing but a nationwide cultural phenomenon.
Honestly mate your retro gaming videos are just absolutely fantastic. So happy I found this channel. Cheers and thank you, sincerely.
You will never understand how many hours I spent playing with my friends or by myself international Superstar Soccer. I mean, after school you go to your friends house or they come to yours and the most important thing to do was to play ISS in the SNES. Bro, this game was a dream to play it.
“Even if you’re playing a country as Norway...”
*nods in Swedish*
At the time we where the number 2 team on the fifa ranking (92 to 95).. Norway have only had a truly great team once and that was in the 90s... And Brasil has still never beaten us :)
I laughed at this. Greetings from The Netherlands.
I really like the tone of all your videos. You don't mince words. You're funny and to the point. Tonnes of content in each video. I've binge-watched a tonne of your videos and they're all entertaining. The snes mini brought me here! Thank you!!!
Thank you for watching Rob
I love how your videos are simultaneously very concise and yet extremely informative.
Really professional snes-soccer review especially because you are a new at soccer games !
Holy crap! I used to play a lot of Super Goal! 2 when I was young, but I had completely forgotten everything about that game until I heard that bassline again! lot's of memories, I used to love it!! Until I stopped playing it when I got International Superstar Soccer Deluxe... This is why I love your videos, man! they trigger lost memories sometimes.
Well done on getting through all of these, it’s no small task. I’m here for the interesting pronunciations of European names and for having a great rest of my day.
Loving the longer videos Snesdrunk! Thanks a lot. Love your channel and your delivery on this kind of content, keep up the good work!
Great video! I really did love Sensible Soccer on the Amiga. Though I actually played the sequel Sensible World of Soccer (which I am a bit bummed that the SNES never got. Just got into SNES in recent years). The difference being that the latter had manager components (bying and selling players, career mode etc.). It's still awesome.
This video was very amusing. I got a belly laugh out of how annoyed you were at several points!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I've been looking for (World Soccer 94, but couldn't remember the title name) for a long time! And it was great you really recommended, super fun to play in the mid-90's
another long vid from SNES drunk...that makes two days in a row! that's it...i'm officially becoming a patron
These longer videos are really kick ass my brotha!
Thanks snesdrunk for the great work
ISS Deluxe ! Sensible Soccer ! Amazing games. Ah the memories 😎
Awesome video 👌
I've played several of these, and by far my favorite is Capcom Soccer Shootout. Once you get used to the player movement, it's great. There's exhibition mode, tournament mode, indoor mode, training mode, PK tournament and much more. You can add spin to the ball. You can use custom formations. The players have different speed levels based on their skill. Also supports 4 players. Overall really fun once you get the hang of it.
Been waiting for this video forever! Amazing take on these games, especially since you´re not a soccer fan. The best games are, without a doubt, the ISS and Super Formation series. Sensible Soccer has a lot of options, but the gameplay gets old real quick in my opinion. Head on Soccer has an arcade feel and it´s lots of fun, I think it´s the best option for non soccer fans to get into the sport on the SNES.
A 24 minute video yesterday and an 18 minute video today? You're working overtime Snesdrunk!
I had no idea there were so many soccer titles on the SNES.
True, so many. I knew of only like 5 or 6. A lot of those games in Japan & Europe never made it to North America tho.
@@estebancruz6194 True. Same for basketball and baseball: in which SNES DRUNK goes into detail about how many were produced in Japan and some of them are very weird titles too.
16:28 Wow. I've been looking for this one for years!! thx 😅!!
Now that was a marathon!!! Wow, I hope you didn't burn yourself out making this.
Good video dude..i grew up on some of these, i still class sensi & ISS as some as the best footie games ever
Thanks dude! l love this video❤
Loving the longer videos
!
Football (USA soccer) is huge worldwide and the video games are pretty enjoyable, I am glad you take your time, for some reason youtubers gamers hate sports titles but they are fun too
International Superstar Soccer series is amazing, I also played a lot of Capcom's Soccer Shootout, Super Soccer, Super Soccer Champs aka Hat Trick Hero, Striker and the FIFA series. Pretty good time for soccer games.
When you went over Captain Tsubasa their is an English rom hack called Boys Soccer Club 5. The story makes no sense, but it funny and it helps playing the game knowing what moves you are trying to do. Its actually a lot of fun.
For someone new to soccer that's a pretty good analysis. ISS Deluxe was my childhood basically along with Kick Off and Sensible on other systems. Still very playable these days.
Your opening was superb.
6:35 I couldn't help but chuckle at your german pronunciation. It sounds more like "Yetst gates los".
Another great video. I really appreciate how much of a slog it must be to go through so many unremarkable games for one video lol
So glad you covered another large SNES sports genre. Mentioning the alternative titles is also very cool. Just need to ask, did you have your emulator set to PAL mode when playing them? I'm not familiar with these games so I don't know what speed is expected, but you mentioned a few games seemed too fast so I think either they were ported poorly or the emulator may have been running the PAL games at 60hz
Or they are just too fast ;)
Another great video.
The “crowd noise” in Hat Trick Hero 2 or whatever sounds exactly like those really annoying vuvuzelas from the World Cup a few years ago in Africa.
Captain tsubasa is a huge franchise in middle east ,the anime was so popular so we are obssesed with the games,we used to know the characters and the story which lead us to play the japanese games without any translation because we love the franchise to death
A SNES drunk video on Friday. Christmas came early this year.
Great !! I used to play Super Formation Soccer 2, the sequel to the original Super Soccer ... It was a popular import here in my country.
Best thing is I found a copy in a videogame store in a travel to the US a couple weeks ago. That made me extremely happy :) I have been playing it in my SNES
I absolutely loved World League Soccer! I use to play it all the time when I was a kid, and when I built my Raspberry Pi, that was one of the first games I installed on it! The computer is pretty tough, but once you really get the hang of it, you can dodge them without too much effort and even get the goalie to come out of the goal and literally run the ball into the net! I still play it from time to time. Yeah, it doesn't have great graphics compared to the rest, but it was an awesome game to play once you looked past that. I think it deserved more than 14 seconds of time in this video, and maybe a bit longer play through to really start to enjoy it.
For someone who isn't into football you made a very good video. Couple of pronunciation hiccups.... But I'll let you away with it! 😂
Keep up the good work 👍
The CHAD International Superstar Soccer vs. the virgin Fifa
SNESDRUNK your Action RPG video & this soccer video are the Snes Drunk equivalent in length of 100%ing Donkey Kong 64. You don't normally make ultra long videos unless it is a soundtrack video!
Thanks for all your great videos! Just curious, do you have original hardware and games or do you utilize emulation? Would you recommend the original hardware versus SNES mini emulation? Thanks!
left over turkey and a long snesdrunk video is a tradition for me now WOOPWOOP
The SNES game "Champion World Class Soccer" had an interesting bug in its German version. The game sometimes shows in huge yellow letters the word "Schiessen" (=to shoot) when you have a clear shot at the goal. Almost like a QTE.
They messed up on the penalty shot text and used the same "Schiessen" but two of the letters get flipped. Now it says "Scheissen" (=to shit)
You could even press the pause button and had time to get your whole family to the tv screen to show them!
(But I don't think it was a mistake in the translation. I think somebody wanted to be funny! Because nobody can be that dumb to make such a mistake and nobody recognizes it).
great point about "sensible soccer" and ea's hockey games both similarly getting the field size/speed of their respective sport right! agree with you about the best ones, however if anyone wants to try "sensible soccer" maybe go for the amiga simulation, it's just better than all the ports, even the solid ones like snes.
also, re: "hat trick hero 2"s crowd sound design, there's a mega drive football sim called "j. league pro striker" and its sound design has a great example of this typical "japanese sports crowd" ambience hat trick hero so miserably fails to reproduce. that, and a banging 16-bit version of "born to win", which is basically a theme song for japanese soccer culture.
The soccer video! Nice! You had mentioned before that you weren’t looking forward to making this one, but the resulting video turned out great. I actually ordered the US version of Sensi from ebay while watching. Which sports are left to cover now?
Fun fact, Mega Man's Soccer actually DOES have an ending in the game's programming, and can be accessed with a cheat code. They just didn't set it to play after you beat the game.
Great videos
As a huge football fan, you've done a decent job here. Couple of minor errors i think but nothing major.
Check out J-LEAGUE 96 dream stadium. My personal favourite.
ISS is the best, even than deluxe. Thanks SNES drunk, you cool!
HAHA i love how you pronounce the german names (K.H. Rummenigge stands for KARL HEINZ Rummenige). I'm sure Mario Basler and Lothar Matthäus would aprove!
Which Snes football games are worth playing today?
Internation Super Star Soccer.
That's it.
* deluxe
And dont forget Dolucky Soccer. Its really good. Thank you Snesdrunk for the great video
Yeah father of pes
Sensible soccer
And Super Soccer for me.
The Captain Tsubasa games have portuguese patches. I remember playing the 5th in PT almost 15 years ago on Zsnes. Tsubasa was kinda big here in Brazil, so there was interest for a translation that the rom hackers scene did.
10:09 *[Mega Man Soccer]* Though the development was rushed, there are two Endings in the game for two of the modes like Capcom Championship. The thing is that the endings couldn't trigger properly as they didn't have a trigger script check programmed in. So once you beat the game, in either of the two modes that have an ending, it would throw you back to the title screen abruptly making you wonder what the heck just happened.
Luckily, there are two methods to view the endings:
1. At a website called 'The Cutting Room Floor' (or TCRF for short) they mention using specific cheat codes to allow you to view the endings when you beat the games two main modes.
2. There is also a hack/patch that very recently released at 'romhacking' that properly adds the necessary triggers to activate the endings, allow the player to select Dr. Wily in Exhibition Mode, and even set both Time (per Quarter) & Super Shoots to 99.
I kinda wish SNES drunk took the time to actually research Mega Man Soccer more because though it is a flawed game in most people's eyes. With the amount of times I rented the game as a kid, I got really good at the game learning intricacies the average player would never know which actually make the game pretty decent to good.
However, I also wish there was a hack/patch made for MMSoccer designed with the Robot Masters in mind for the Capcom Championship Mode (Main Game mode) that would make it like the Mega Man classic series with the rock, paper, scissors vulnerabilities... but instead of being an offensive system, I'd spin it in a 180 degree kinda way. In Capcom Championship, you choose to play against a certain robot master team, and if you beat them, you gain 1 player from the opponent team you can then use for your own team. I'd take this aspect and make it so that if you made that new character your goalie, they would have a built-in immunity to one specific team you would go up against (allowing that character to catch the Super Shoots of the appropriate enemy team). This is already seen in the game by a couple of the robot masters but more so with the extra robot masters in Exhibition Mode. This could make the game far more interesting if implemented with the Restored Patch.
Mega Man Soccer isn't a bad game in my opinion, but the learning curve would put a lot of people off. It's actually a pretty decent game when you learn to play it and learn the tricks to scoring goals, and employ defensive strategies to stop the opponent's team from scoring even if they use Super Shoots by using the mini-map to move a character into the way of the shot to get decimated saving the goalie from this fate. The Sweeper and 3-1-3 or 3-2-2 formations can really help with this.
Want to know how to score without Super Shoots?
It's not too difficult. On each side of the field (nearish the goals) there is a line going from the top of the field to the bottom of the field with a semi circle or oval. When taking a normal shot at the goal, having your character near or slightly inside the semi-circle and aiming up or down on the D-pad relative to your position and the goalkeeper, it is very possible to score goals on a consistent basis. This is the main method.
There are other ways and points on the field where it's possible to score consistently with normal shoots like just underneath the goal if you get close to the opponents near the wall, but just out enough that the angle ends up being a blind spot for the Goalie to miss your shot. Then if you use a 3-1-3 or 2-3-3 strategy, running up-field toward the opponents goal you are typically joined by your ally teammates that run alongside you either above or below you, with some tricky and fast paced button pressing, if say you went to the north-side of the goal (above, and passed downward to your teammates and quickly shot at the goal instantly, this is yet another but more tricky (advanced) method to scoring with normal shoots.
Also, it wasn't really mentioned in SNES drunk's video but the music in Mega Man Soccer is pretty darn good when you give it a listen. Granted, the music isn't Mega Man 2 levels of excellence but it's still unique to the game and makes for some pretty enjoyable themes. However, most people don't notice this because the moment the lose at the game, they claim to "hate the game" when it's more so that they dislike losing and get frustrated from that which can easily influence them into thinking everything about the game is bad. I play video games to have an experience, and if I lose, I pick myself up off the ground without a peep and get better through practice. It's like a desire to become better, to persevere beyond, ascend. For me, I define a game as a *challenge* that I can actually *win, or lose*, and an *experience* to be enjoyed for story, music, gameplay, and it's respective uniqueness.
1200 words! You should make a video.
I get it though, you spent a ton of time on the game and learned to love it. But here comes some asshole (me) who dismisses the game in less than 30 seconds. That's gonna piss people off. No I still don't like Mega Man Soccer but it's pretty clear that you do! Rock on!
Your last "soccer" mention you said "stalker" instead. Good job man, this video took some effort and you're not even from one of our crazy countries.
Hi Snesdrunk!
I'm from Brazil and this is my top 5:
1-ISS Deluxe
2-super soccer
3-FIFA 97
4-capcom soccer shootout
5-hat trick hero
International superstar soccer is the best, by far, but i spent many hours (and ocasionally still do it) playing world soccer ´94 road to glory, a really great game IMO. Excellent video, thanks a lot!
Two videos in two days nice.
Damn, you're from Minnesota? Hell yeah!
There are 4 Captain Tsubasa games for Super Famicom, III, IV, V and J, they are playable if you invest enough time, also I think there are english patches for them
Striker was an absolute classic, my house was the go to place for a game of Striker. You could also customise your players, teams and kits too 👍
I been trying to remember the name of this game, used to love it!
The kit designer was classic, you could score every time just running in line with the post and smash it straight into the top corner from distance 😅
Super Goal! I had fun with this game when I was a child. And yes, half of the time the ball was floating in the air...
Super Soccer has a great Soundtrack and in the victory ceremony after winning the Tournament the referee shoots the guy holding the trophy with a ball and makes you play against his Team "Nintendo".
Who else remember all the Commentary Quotes from International Superstar Soccer Deluxe?
It's a big kick
Awesome video and even if i knew that ISS Deluxe would be the best choice i love watching all the football games some of which are quite unique. I remember Tony Meola from USA 94 US national team squad and looking forward to world cup 2026 in USA, Mexico and Canada
Super soccer and international super star soccer deluxe were the 2 soccer games that everyone had over here
2 days in a row? HECK YA!! that hasnt happened in ages XD haha
The swings at German for "jetzt geht's los," and "Lothar Matthäus" were highly enjoyable.
Thanks for noticing
lol Surpriesed they kept Sepp Meier for his game, but changed Karl-Heinz Rummenigge to Kevin Keegan for the international release :P
Wow never heard of dolucky :D looks fun
Safe to assume you emulated the pal region games or you played them on a pal device but on ntsc TV, that's why they were so sped up and fast... If you were to play them on an actual pal TV they would be normal to speed
Very very good point. I remember the guys at the game shop talking about that the other day about how pal consoles on American Tv's speeds them up. I think you have to reset your emulator to pal also, or some such thing.
@@chancepaladin The speed a game runs at is nothing to do with the TVs. The TV is just the receiving end of what the video signal looks like - it doesn't speed up or slow down that signal. And, almost all modern TVs have no issue display a PAL or NTSC signal (if they can't handle it you simply won't see a picture or it will be messed up).
Most software emulators autodetect whether you're using a PAL or NTSC ROM and will play them in their intended speed. If you're using hardware like an Analogue Super NT or Retron 5 etc. and you set the region yourself, you get what you select. So, if you insert a PAL game and choose PAL region, you get the intended 50HZ running speed and (by default) 50Hz and the games play normal. If you insert a PAL game and choose NTSC for the region, what usually happens is 1. You get a message saying the game is not intended for US/JPN consoles, or 2. The game does play but it runs a little faster than normal, sometimes even faster than if the game was the NTSC version depending on whether the game was properly optimised or not. The speed change is noticeable but it's not crazy like some of the games in this video. That's just badly designed games xD
The speed difference is interesting. Some games that were originally made in NTSC regions had proper optimisation for PAL and therefore, the PAL versions of those games playing in PAL consoles ran at the same gameplay speed as the NTSC versions. And that optimisation included utilising PAL's extra horizontal lines of resolution (well, not having a letterbox effect at least). Many devs were too lazy to do this and as a result, their PAL games run about 17% slower and have letterboxing instead of being fullscreen(see the first Sonic game). A great example of proper optimisation are the Donkey Kong Country games (unsurprising since they're developed by UK Rare).
@Cappy Larou The TV does not magically change the speed. That's all done by the console. The TV only makes a difference in 50HZ and 60Hz screen refresh rates which can make some games appear to move smoother, not change speed. See my other comment
Good point. Never even thought about that at all. Should have. lol!
It's reassuring to know that the greatest soccer game ever, is still yet to be made. I wonder who has written the 80,000 character 2000 team script for that one then..
I still play ISS deluxe from time to time and remember playing striker as a kid a lot.
You're going to make me pass out one of these days. For whatever reason, I hold my breath until you get done saying "Snes drunk"
Please don't die!
I hope you have a great rest of your day too.
I always forget you’re from Minnesota. So am I. Minnesota for life!
Captain Tsubasa III has a translation path... into Spanish. At least is something, I think. The anime is very popular in Spain and South America, that explains why Spanish instead of English.
Also, if you want to play a Captain Tsubasa game in English, play Tecmo Cup for NES, it's the first Captain Tsubasa with the characters changed, when you play it you learn the controls, wich are the same in some of the Super Famicom releases.
Try them and maybe you can enjoy those games! :)
Amazing research! The Japanese version of international superstar soccer deluxe have a full time narration
Sensible Soccer in amiga in 1993 was like the best thing ever. I am a huge Football fan from europe and this game featured a managing system like never done before. You could sell your players and follow how their carreers went on. Also the gameplay was a lot of fun.
Striker is an awesome game, still play it today (although the indoor football mode, there is a method to score every time, so newbies beware). Thinking of it, there are methods to score every time in the regular game too. Still a classic though.
Broooooooo!!! World Cup Striker (elite soccer) was one of my favourite soccer games growing up!! It maybe a bit fast, but you do master it and it doesn't just have the outdoor version but you get to choose to play indoor also if you want and there's 64 teams to choose from and all the players are real name players. But I guess it's a case of horses for courses
You might wanna give Capcom International / J League soccer game another try, the Japanese J-league version has more than what you reviewed. Including several training games to teach you in-depth tricks of the game, curve ball controls and various stunt shot actions.
14:23 the first mode 7 soccer game is surely Super Soccer, mentioned earlier?
Pat Contri's Ultimate Guide to the SNES Library is out now, and it's interesting to me to compare their reviews to this video. I'm surprised at how many differing opinions there are, although both this video and the book agree that ISS is the best, to no one's surprise.
One tghing i liked about the 80's Tsubasa anime was how the ball turned into a hotdog when they kicked it really hard.
definitely. and the field long 10 km
For me there's only one real SNES soccer game and that is Super Soccer. Played the hell out of it as a kid and I still love it to this day.
Ronaldinho Soccer '97, mod of International Superstar Soccer but also released as an unnofficial cartridge in Brazil, is my pick for the best soccer game on the SNES. It has a tournament mode, championship mode based on the 1997 Brazilian Championship's first division, friendlys, penalty and corner kick challenges, and a dog referee cheat code.
