Introducing Bigly, the game-changing studio
New developer hits the market with a never seen before commercial model that promises to revolutionise how operators pay for slots
Bigly is set to revolutionise the content provision space with the studio coming to market with a unique commercial model that allows operators to offer blockbuster slots to their players for a capped cost.
For operators, this means no more expensive revenue share deals with studios and no more promoting the same games as their rivals. Instead, they can push the games that best deliver the experiences their players are seeking and keep the lion’s share of the revenues they generate.
Bigly is a bold and ambitious studio that uses a hybrid of a revenue share agreement with the fee each operator pays capped at a fixed amount each year.
With a product roadmap that allows for ten top-quality titles per year, operators get more bang for their buck with each passing month as more games are added to the Bigly portfolio. The studio’s first slot will be Deep Sea Treasure, a visually striking cascade game that promises plenty of bonus action.
Because of the capped monthly cost, Bigly’s games are a reliable and predictable expense, providing huge monetisation opportunities for operators to explore. The more marketing clout the operator puts behind each game, the better it can perform and the more revenue it can generate.
This is revenue the operator gets to keep instead of handing a percentage back to the studio, as is the case with standard commercial agreements.
Bigly is the brainchild of industry veteran Liam Mulvaney who is joined by a team of bright minds and creative talent to produce Bigly’s content portfolio. To drive Bigly to its intended targets, Reelsoft has joined as the company’s technology partner.
Reelsoft is a key player in the iGaming technology sector, offering powerful, scalable solutions for game studios and aggregators and at the heart of Bigly’s operation is Reelsoft’s development team and Vision RGS which is the company’s innovative remote game server. Vision RGS enables rapid development of casino games such as slots, table games and crash games while ensuring smooth integration for operators providing a stable and robust foundation for Bigly’s ambitious plans.
Liam Mulvany, Founder and Chief Commercial Officer at Bigly, said: “Bigly is not just another slot studio – there are already 100s of those doing pretty much the same thing. This is an industry that talks a lot about innovation yet still turns to the same commercial model that’s been used for decades. Instead, we have come to market with an entirely new commercial model we believe will be super appealing to operators.
“Because of our capped monthly fees, operators can become really creative with the games they offer to their players and how they go about marketing them. The more they push our content, the better it performs and the more revenue it generates – revenue they get to keep.
“At a time of growing costs and shrinking margins, Bigly is exactly what operators need. Our games hit the mark with players, and they also hit the ROI operators are seeking. We are already in late-stage talks with several operators and will be announcing our first partners shortly.”
Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Reelsoft, commented: “We’re thrilled to support Bigly’s journey from unique concept to launch. Their innovative approach to the commercial model is exciting and new in the industry, and we’re excited to see their creative vision come to life on our vision RGS platform. We believe in empowering studios like Bigly with the tools and infrastructure they need to focus on creating exceptional content, and we’re confident that Bigly will shake up the market with their new commercial concept and games.”

Record Progressive Jackpot at Over $2 Million and Climbing Up for Grabs at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood
A record progressive jackpot of more than $2 million continues to climb on a $1 million Dragon Link slot machine by Aristocrat Gaming. The huge jackpot is up for grabs at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood.
The $1 denomination Dragon Link slot is a single-site progressive (SSP) and is located in the high-limit slots area of the Hollywood casino, famous through the world for its iconic Guitar Hotel. The slot machine’s progressive jackpot increases independently from other Dragon Link slots at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood and elsewhere.
The jackpot is climbing by an average of $7,000 per day and is on track to become one of the largest slot machine payouts in Seminole Gaming history and the largest Dragon Link jackpot ever awarded. Players at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood have a chance to be a part of jackpot history.
“It’s exciting to witness the Dragon Link jackpot grow to an unprecedented amount. The game has been a favorite since its release, and with this amazing prize now up for grabs, our players have the potential for a huge win,” said David Hoenemeyer, Chief Operating Officer of Seminole Gaming.
“We are incredibly proud of the fanfare Dragon Link has amassed over the years, and this historic milestone reinforces player excitement for the brand. The Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood team have been incredible partners and huge supporters of our $1 million Dragon Link offering. We can’t wait to be a part of the celebration of this record-breaking jackpot,” said Kurt Gissane, Chief Revenue Officer for Aristocrat Gaming.
Since its debut at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood in June 2021, Dragon Link has consistently drawn in players with its exciting high-denomination offering, which includes a $25 minimum bet and a $2,500 max bet. The casino-resort was the first in the world to feature the $1 million Dragon Link progressive, and today, it remains one of the most popular high-limit slot games available.
The impact of Dragon Link on the gaming landscape has been immense, cementing its status as a player favorite. While Aristocrat Gaming continues to push boundaries with innovative offerings, the latest jackpot at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood represents a new milestone in gaming entertainment.
