I've recorded all the different language versions I could get my hands on and will use the same comment for all these longplays:
The original version is Danish and is the best one in my opinion as it has all the things some of the other versions don't. Like the forest panel, it has some plants/bushes/trees/whatever on it, the kids at the end talk, and birds fly in the love animation. These 3 things are only in the Danish version for some reason.
The only version that doesn't have speech during the first part of the animation when climbing the mountain is the Finnish.
All versions have one damaged frame in the mountain climbing animation, except the Swedish one, it's flawless.
Other differences are for example:
When he jumps in the forest: in Danish he says "yahoo!", in Finish it's "hipaaay" (or however it might be spelled), he says nothing in the German and Swedish versions.
When jumping over the holes on the mountain level, he says the same thing as he does in the forest in the Danish version. The Finnish and Swedish versions uses the same Danish voice (weird they didn't use them in the forest level as well then, where he said nothing in Swedish and something different in Finnish). In German he says "yippie!" in a very unenthusiastic way (so it's the same here, why not also use this for the forest jumping where he said nothing?).
The amount of ropes are not always the same either. The Danish version has 4, the German, Finnish, Swedish, and Spanish versions have only 3. Another weird thing is the Spanish version have its 3 ropes labeled "3", "6", "9", lol, wtf?
The part in the forest where the witch presses a button... in the Danish version, they have labels under them, saying "DRILLE" on all 3, but in the other versions, there are no labels under them, instead there are icons/symbols above the buttons.
The picture (the very first thing in each movie) before the menu looks different in all versions, except German and Swedish, they are exactly the same.
There are probably more differences, but enough with that. The next thing I noticed was some hidden-in-plain-sight messages, sort of. One is a name ("NICHOLA") on the boulder animation's first frame, so very hard to notice unless you record and advance frame by frame (saw a similar thing in Stardust). The other one is a two letter word in the bottom left corner ("HUGO POWER"). The third one is on the wooden part to the right ("Nölb was here too!").

The SEXY witch (especially when she lies on the catapult-thingy) can become either a big bird, an ugly old hag, or tied up to be shot out of the mountain.
I wonder if the second part of the game exist for the Finnish and Spanish versions, as these two only had 2 levels each (Finnish = forest+mountain, Spanish = train+plane). Like the Danish version, it came in two sets, where each had 2 levels, unlike the German and Swedish versions which had them all in the same set. -
