Normal sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1-6 without repeating in each row/column/box.
Colour the grid into 4-cell tetromino shaped regions. No two similar shapes may share a border, including rotational and mirrored shapes(Ex, a J and L piece cannot share an edge.) Each tetromino must contain a + and - cell, and all tetromino regions sum to the same value. Digits cannot repeat within a tetromino.
Within any shaded region, the '+' cell has a greater value than the '-' cell.
Solution code: Row 1 followed by column 1; 12 digits no spaces.

Very cool ruleset! I second the hope that this may become a 9x9 someday

Fun puzzle, very interesting idea. I look hope you continue developing this idea and push into a 9x9 with this ruleset.
