Live streaming sponsorships platform inSTREAMLY raises €1.1m
The Warsaw-based start-up wants to be the go-to platform for all streamers to grow and monetise their passion and for brands to work with streamers to reach Gen Z viewers
Live streaming sponsorships platform inSTREAMLY has raised a €1.1m seed round led by Supernode Global to expand into new markets.
Founded in 2019 by a team of live streaming and marketing professionals, inSTREAMLY has built a platform that enables all streamers – regardless of size – access to brands and to participate and execute sponsorships.
Colopl Next and PKO TFI were also involved in the investment round and previous pre-seed investment was secured from SMOK VC, which is run by Paul Bragiel, an investor in Niantic (PokemonGO), Unity, Uber, and Stripe.
The global live streaming market is valued at $70bn and expected to rise to $184.27bn by 2027. It is extremely difficult to execute brand sponsorship deals for the live streaming market, so typically only the largest streamers with millions of followers are able to work with large brands, leaving the majority of streamers without access to brand deals. With inSTREAMLY’S technology and platform, all streamers gain access to deals previously reserved for the top 0.01% and brands are able to access a large and highly engaged community of micro-streamers, delivering the same amount of impressions, but much better conversion rates than with larger streamers.
While the industry average CTR for paid ads is 0,7%, a recent campaign with 956 streamers achieved a 4% CTR, demonstrating that smaller streamers are able to draw more engagement, which brands such as Netflix, Samsung, PlayStation, Adidas, and Reebok, among others, are capturing through inSTREAMLY’s platform.
“I personally know how life-changing it can be for a small streamer to get their first revenue from streaming. It makes you believe that you can turn your passion into a career. With the new funds, we will be accelerating our expansion to new markets and aim to deliver the best opportunities to streamers worldwide,” says Wiktoria Wójcik, co-founder, inSTREAMLY.
“We see massive potential in how inSTREAMLY is democratising sponsorship opportunities for the live streaming ecosystem and believe the team’s deep understanding of the market and passion for streaming will be a key component to their success. We’re incredibly excited to lead this round and look forward to supporting inSTREAMLY as they expand their platform into new markets.” – says Phoebe Arkell, Supernode Global.
“Media agencies and large brands are currently facing difficulties in building a sales message that would be engaging for the Generation Z. inSTREAMLY fills this gap. The value of the Company is built for all current shareholders, and we believe it will be a part of inSTREAMLY global success.” – Krzysztof Tokarski, Managing Director at PKO VC.

155.io Breaks the Mold Again, Introducing the CCTV Game Genre via Rush Hour
155.io, the live content studio transforming real-world games, has launched CCTV.Game, an innovative genre created entirely from live CCTV footage collected worldwide. The category debuts with its inaugural title, Rush Hour. The live game operates around the clock to convert real-life traffic into immediate viewing and wagering entertainment.
The CCTV Game signifies a new path for 155.io, broadening its chaos-oriented philosophy into completely live, real-world settings. Created using numerous live CCTV feeds from around the globe, the game transforms everyday activities into quick, engaging, and immediately bettable entertainment.
Running nonstop, Rush Hour enables players to wager on straightforward, distinct results during rounds lasting under a minute – such as the number of cars that cross a junction or the quantity that turns left or right within a specified timeframe. Each round is dynamic, spontaneous, and influenced by the organic rhythms of the world, instead of standard RNG methods.
Rush Hour’s live recordings feature diverse locations such as Sydney, Swindon, Arizona, and Taipei, as well as landmarks like Patong Beach in Thailand and Abbey Road in London. From everyday crossroads to landmark locations, the entire world transforms into the game board. Crafted for mobile devices, Rush Hour is immediately comprehensible and genuinely engaging, providing a much-needed option to conventional casino formats. CCTV Game embodies 155.io’s fundamental philosophy: chaotic reality, straightforward games, and entertainment designed primarily for mobile.
The launch enhances 155.io’s attraction to the upcoming player generation, merging live-stream culture with instant betting features.
CCTV Game and Rush Hour can now be accessed via Hub88 or through direct integration.
Sam Jones, Founder & CEO of 155.io, commented: “Rush Hour is the first expression of our CCTV Game genre – think Big Brother blended with Polymarket. It’s completely live, and the world is now our studio. CCTV.game takes real-world chaos and turns it into something instantly playable and genuinely entertaining – this is content the next generation will queue up to try.”
He added: “Once you realise the entire world can be a live game feed, there are no boundaries. Live traffic content is just the start – from live wildlife to iconic sporting locations – we’re only just setting off on our journey of what real-world chaos entertainment can be.”

Chicken X & Friends
Million Games Launches Chicken X & Friends Today Following Strong ICE Reception
Million Games announces today the official launch of Chicken X & Friends, its real-time multiplayer crash game and the highly anticipated sequel to the award-nominated hit Chicken X.
Following a successful showcase at ICE 2026, where the game attracted strong interest and positive feedback from operators, partners, and industry professionals, Chicken X & Friends is now live and available to play.
Set across a chaotic multi-lane highway, Chicken X & Friends brings Jack Chicken back into action—this time in a shared, unlimited multiplayer environment. Unlike traditional crash games, gameplay never pauses. There are no waiting rounds or session start times. Players can jump in instantly and start playing at any moment.
Multiplayer Crash Gameplay, Evolved
Chicken X & Friends introduces unlimited, real-time multiplayer gameplay to the crash genre. Players are visible live on screen as they navigate traffic lanes, build multipliers, and decide when to cash out before the crash.
“This launch marks an important step for us,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Million Games. “Chicken X & Friends builds on everything players loved about the original, but adds a social layer that fundamentally changes how crash games feel. Seeing other players make decisions in real time adds tension, strategy, and excitement—and that was very clear from the feedback we received at ICE.”
Player Choice, Progression, and Personalisation
Gameplay takes place across multiple traffic lanes, each offering a distinct risk-and-reward profile. Slower lanes provide steadier multiplier growth with lighter traffic, while faster lanes increase volatility with denser traffic and quicker multiplier escalation.
Players actively choose how and where to play—staying safe, pushing into danger, or switching lanes as conditions change. Safe zones offer a brief pause from traffic, but staying too long triggers an automatic cash-out, ensuring the pace remains high and the pressure stays on.
As players progress, they unlock levels and cosmetic customisations, including different skins and hats for Jack Chicken. These visual rewards allow players to stand out on the road and showcase their experience and performance without affecting gameplay balance.
Movement is fast and intuitive, controlled through taps or directional inputs, allowing players to react instantly as traffic patterns evolve.
Social, Competitive, and Always On
In public playgrounds, up to ten players appear live on screen. Each player is represented by Jack Chicken, while competitors appear as pigeons, creating instant visual awareness of who is still in the race. The leading player is highlighted with a unique “king” skin and a visible live multiplier.
Live leaderboards track top performances over the past hour and 24 hours, encouraging repeat play and competition. Players can also choose to play solo or create private rooms with friends, offering flexibility without compromising the core gameplay experience.
Now Live and Available
Chicken X & Friends is launching today and can be played now on the Million Games website. Operators and partners interested in integrating the game or learning more about distribution opportunities are encouraged to get in touch with the Million Games team.
“This game represents something genuinely new for our industry,” added Thomas Nimstad. “We’re pushing beyond familiar formats to create experiences that players haven’t seen before. Unlimited gameplay, visible multiplayer tension, and shared decision-making open up a new direction for crash games—and that’s exactly the kind of innovation we want Million Games to be known for.”

Greentube goes wild in the jungle with Gorilla Cash™
Greentube, the NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division, is stepping into the heart of the jungle with Gorilla Cash
, an action-packed pays-anywhere slot where tumbling reels, collector tokens and free games combine for engaging feature-rich gameplay.
Set amongst the trees is the 6×5 grid, featuring a vibrant cast of jungle animal symbols, including gorillas, tigers, parrots and elephants. Winning combinations are formed by landing at least eight matching symbols anywhere on the reels, while winning symbols disappear to make way for new ones, triggering the tumble mechanic.
At the heart of the game is the dynamic Coin Stack Collector feature. At the start of any base game round, collector positions can be randomly applied across the grid.
When a coin stack lands on a collector position, its value is immediately collected and new symbols cascade into place. If additional instant cash prizes tumble into the same collector position, their values are also collected, allowing the feature to chain together multiple wins in a single round until no more coin values remain on screen.
When four or more scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels, players are awarded 10 free games, with the chance to earn five additional free games whenever four or more scatters appear during the bonus round. Throughout free games, any seeded collector symbols remain locked in place, enhancing win potential.
During the free games feature, coin stacks can also include multiplier symbols, which increase the Coin Stack Multiplier by 1x each time they are collected. This multiplier does not reset between spins and remains active for the entirety of the free spins round. Coin stack values range from 0.25x to 1.5x the bet, while high-value coin stacks can award between 5x and 100x the total bet.
Once no more coins can be gathered, the accumulated coin stack total is multiplied by the final multiplier value.
Richard Ganster, Director of Games Strategy and Games Portfolio Management at Greentube, said: “Gorilla Cash
is designed to deliver constant momentum, with tumbling reels, collector mechanics and escalating multipliers keeping players engaged from start to finish.
“The jungle theme pairs perfectly with the game’s dynamic features, creating a wild and rewarding slot experience.”
