de NG:DEV.TEAM unveils NEO XYX

NG:DEV.TEAM unveils NEO XYXNG: DEV.TEAM has unveiled its next Neo-Geo MVS game: a vertical maniac shooting game named NEO XYX. To finance the title, the development team imagined a quite original system: the game development budget will depend on the number of pre-orders. If the budget is low, the game will be released in January 2013. By cons, if they collect a lot of money, stages will be longer, there will be more midboss, more game modes and game size will also be greater. About gameplay, the score system is based on medal chaining and a mild rank system. Furthermore, the player will be able to collect bombs to help him in his task. There will be 6 levels with varied and colorful settings, 6 endbosses, 16-bit hand-drawn graphics (dot graphics). NEO XYX will be the first Neo-Geo game to use a vertical screen (TATE). It will however be usable on horizontal monitors thanks to an option to switch between vertical (TATE) and horizontal controls (YOKO). The limited edition MVS cartridge is limited to 50-75 units worldwide. Pre sales get an early bird discount of 9% / 40 EUR (€ 399 instead of € 439). The limited edition package will include a shockbox, a 12-page full colour game manual, 2 posters and a soundtrack CD. As with all NG: DEV.TEAM games, the cartridge will feature a USB port to update the game. NEO XYX can be pre-ordered on NG: DEV.DIRECT. The status of the budget can also be checked there.
