Hello everyone,
Neotris is a new Neo·Geo puzzle game, a Tetris-like that adds some new gameplay features, including a very, very special one I'll talk about in a bit.
It is developed by FlashLogic/Totologic, a member of the Yaronet forums. I've met him a couple of times, at 2 conventions, the Stunfest and the Retro Gaming Connexion 2019.
Let's talk gameplay; One of the features Neotris introduces is called the Interlock, and works like this:
Its purpose is to create an alternative to the "T-spin" method, making it a bit easier, and also feasible using all available pieces.
Here is a 2P gameplay video:

Now, here's the very special feature that Neotris introduces. A feature never seen in any Neo·Geo homebrew game, and in only one official game: the game supports 4 players!
Here's an old 4P gameplay video, hopefully we'll get a new one soon because there have been some nice improvements:

FlashLogic, Neotris' developer, made the game 4 player compatible by creating a multitap:
Here's the latest, and probably final version:
The final version will not be 3d printed but made from molded/injected ABS.
The game will be available soon in AES format, with 50 Japanese games and 50 Export/US games. An MVS version is very likely, and if it is made, it will be released soon after the AES one.
The AES version will come with a snaplock box, cover, sticker, and a full-color manual. It is very likely that everything will be offset-printed (best feasible quality, which nowadays offers a quaity even better than original games), same for the MVS version whick will come as a full kit (cardboard box and artset with 2 mini marquees, move strips, DIP sheet and flyers).
You can follow this project on the official Facebook page: www.facebook.com/NeotrisAES
I will also keep you updated on these boards, which should happen quite often as the game is now around 90% complete.
