Popular game developer latest to join a prestigious list of studios to gain direct access to online casino affiliates via innovative platform
NetGaming, the developer of bold and striking online slot games, has joined the growing list of studios to partner with First Look Games in a bid to boost marketing activity around its content portfolio.
By becoming a First Look Games partner, NetGaming will gain direct access to hundreds of online casino affiliates for the first time and can share with them information and assets for its existing portfolio of games and all future releases.
This includes game information sheets and marketing assets such as logos, images and videos of games being played. These are uploaded to the First Look Games Library where they can be downloaded individually or in bulk by affiliates.
Assets can also be uploaded two weeks prior to game launch so that a select number of affiliates can have a “first look” at the information in order to create content ahead of go live which is then published in prime positions across their sites once the game hits operator lobbies.
NetGaming recently launched a new branded slot, MTV Pimp My Ride, based on the popular MTV show with information and assets for the game now available through the First Look Games Library.
First Look Games also allows developers to push notifications about network promotions, bonus campaigns and operator partnerships to affiliate members, further increasing potential exposure for their games and brands.
Tom Galanis, Director at First Look Games, said: “NetGaming is a cracking addition to our growing roster of popular game developers and will garner incredible interest among our affiliate partners looking to be the first to post about their latest game launches.
“First Look Games was founded in order to allow game developers to directly connect with affiliate publishers and to leverage the tremendous marketing value they can provide to online casino players in markets around the world and we are thrilled to be helping NetGaming in this regard.”
Pallavi Deshmukh, CEO at NetGaming, said: “First Look Games is a powerful marketing platform for us and our games, and we are delighted to be able to share news of our latest slot releases – in particular MTV Pimp My Ride – with its network of affiliates.
“We believe affiliates provide a significant marketing opportunity for developers and that as a studio we can also provide them with the information and assets they need to create incredible content that will engage their readers.
“I’d like to thank First Look Games for providing the platform and network to enable us to do this.”

Azerbaijani Parliament
Azerbaijan to Impose Tougher Penalties for Illegal Online Gambling
The Azerbaijani Parliament (Milli Majlis) has officially cleared the first reading of a bill to heavily increase criminal penalties for organising and operating illegal gambling.
The proposed amendments to the Criminal Code were discussed during an extraordinary parliamentary session.
Under the bill, organising gambling in virtual formats-including via the internet, mobile communications, social media platforms, electronic communication tools or other internet- and mobile-based applications-would carry tougher penalties. The same applies to offenses involving minors, crimes committed by a group acting in prior collusion or activities generating substantial illegal income.
Such offenses would be punishable by a fine of up to twice the amount of the income obtained through the crime, restriction of liberty for a term of two to four years, or imprisonment for the same period.
The proposed amendments also introduce stricter penalties for offenses committed by organised criminal groups or criminal organisations, as well as those generating large-scale illegal profits. These would be punishable by restriction of liberty or imprisonment for a term of three to five years.
The bill would also change the way fines are calculated. Instead of the current fixed range of AZN 10,000 to AZN 15,000, courts would be able to impose fines of up to twice the amount of the criminal proceeds.
In addition, the legislation proposes harsher punishment for repeat offenses involving the organisation or operation of gambling activities or gambling venues, particularly where minors are involved or where the offenses generate substantial, large-scale or especially large-scale illegal income.
Under the current legislation, repeat offenses are punishable by restriction of liberty for four to five years or imprisonment for four to eight years. The proposed amendments would make imprisonment for five to eight years the sole penalty for such offenses.

Amusnet Releases its Latest Video Slot “Golden Snake”
Amusnet has released Golden Snake, a captivating new video slot that blends the timeless appeal of Asian symbolism with innovative mechanics and high-impact gameplay. Designed for players who enjoy immersive themes and thrilling volatility, the title delivers a fresh interpretation of one of the industry’s most enduring and successful game styles.
Set in a world inspired by prosperity, luck and ancient Asian traditions, Golden Snake immerses players in a vibrant atmosphere filled with glowing money bags, firecrackers, blue envelopes, golden coins and the majestic Golden Snake. Rich visuals, authentic sound design and a fully animated snake companion create a lively experience that reacts to every spin, adding personality and emotion to the gameplay.
Moving beyond the traditional slot layout, Golden Snake introduces a distinctive 3x4x3 reel configuration that offers a fresh gameplay dynamic while remaining intuitive and engaging. The excitement builds with the Respin Feature, which can trigger randomly on any spin by selecting a paying symbol – or even the Wild – to set a chain of consecutive respins in motion. During the feature, the second reel could be locked with stacked Wild symbols while the first and third reels spin exclusively for the chosen symbol. Еvery new Wild symbol or matching symbol could be extending the action and increasing the anticipation.
The game’s momentum is further amplified by a powerful multiplier system. During the base game, multipliers of 3x, 5x and 10x can instantly enhance winning combinations. When the Respin Feature is activated and the middle reel fills with stacked Wild symbols, it expands to unlock multiplier values of up to 20x, creating exhilarating moments with a maximum win potential of 5000x the bet.
Beyond its engaging mechanics, Golden Snake has been designed to encourage longer play sessions through responsive character animations, dynamic win celebrations and continuous respin opportunities. Combined with its culturally inspired theme, the title is well positioned to appeal to audiences across Asia, LATAM and other regulated markets where Asian-themed content continues to perform strongly.
With Golden Snake, Amusnet reinforces its commitment to creating premium gaming experiences that combine recognisable themes, innovative mechanics and outstanding production quality. The new release provides operators with a compelling addition to their portfolio, helping them diversify their offering with content designed to drive player engagement and long-term performance.
