Platipus Gaming unites with Livespins
Exciting game developer that is particularly popular with players at crypto casinos now available on the innovative live streaming platform
Malta: 31 May 2022 – Livepsins has taken the online casino industry by storm with its mission to socially charge player experiences via its innovative streaming and bet behind platform, and now slot developer Platipus Gaming has joined its ranks as a studio partner.
Livespins is already live with operator CasinoFriday.com and has proved to be hugely popular with players looking for new ways to experience and enjoy online casino.
The deal means that Livespins streamers can now use the studio’s games, which are particularly popular with players at crypto casinos, for their broadcasts and enabling them to stream popular titles such as Wild Spin, Joker Chase and 7& Hot Fruits.
Founded in 2014, Platipus Gaming has emerged as a leading developer of eye-catching HTML5 slots and table games that deliver fun, challenging and imaginative player experiences that have seen its titles stand out from the crowd.
Not only can players watch the action as it takes place across the reels, but Livespins’ cutting-edge platform allows them to get directly involved by betting behind the streamer. This creates a group bet but with each player able to set their own bet value and number of spins.
Social interaction is also a key part of the Livespins experience, and this is provided by players being able to communicate with the streamer and each other throughout. They can also add reactions to the explosive gameplay taking place throughout the stream.
Michael Pedersen, CCO at Livespins, said: “Platipus Gaming has earned a reputation for developing slots that stand out in game lobbies thanks to their striking design and big sound. Gameplay is also next level, with its slots packed full of features and bonuses.
“It is these qualities that make its slots perfect for streamers looking to excite and entertain their audiences with each spin. That we enable players to bet behind the action takes this a step further, and I look forward to our streamers and players enjoying this unique combination.
Vladyslav Garanko, CMO at Platipus Gaming, added: “We are thrilled to have joined forces with Livespins and for its streamers to be able to play our games and broadcast the action to their audiences. Streaming is absolutely the future of online casino and this partnership enables us to leverage its huge potential.”

PG Soft appoints Hugo Baungartner as General Manager LatAm
Veteran executive tasked with expanding PG Soft across Latin America and leading strategy in Brazil as regulation evolves.
PG Soft has appointed Hugo Baungartner as General Manager LatAm, handing him responsibility for the supplier’s commercial expansion across Latin America and its strategy in Brazil.
The company said Baungartner will focus on growing the business in Brazil, where PG Soft says it has already captured a “significant share of the market,” while building presence across regulated markets in the wider region.
Baungartner brings more than 29 years of experience across technology and gaming. He has held leadership roles at Grupo Aposta Ganha, RCT Gaming, Prohards and most recently Esportes Gaming Brasil, according to the company.
PG Soft also pointed to Baungartner’s network across Latin America’s regulatory landscape, including relationships with Brazil’s Secretariat of Prizes and Betting (SPA/MF), the Federal Revenue Service, and COAF, as well as Mexico’s Dirección General de Juegos y Sorteos and AIEJA (the Mexican Gaming Association).
Hugo Baungartner, General Manager LatAm at PG Soft, commented: “PG Soft’s brand needs no introduction in Latin America thanks to its extensive portfolio of world-class, mobile-first games that resonate strongly with players. The company is only just getting started in the region, and I look forward to building on its success in Brazil while expanding PG Soft’s presence across regulated markets throughout Latin America.”

BetOnGames launches Tokyo Skyline Run crash game with 97.5% RTP
BetOnGames, the instant games vertical of the BETCORE ecosystem, has launched Tokyo Skyline Run, a new crash game aimed at iGaming operators. The company said the mobile-first title ships with a 97.5% RTP and is built around short, fast rounds.
Tokyo Skyline Run is set across a neon Tokyo rooftop backdrop and uses a rising multiplier mechanic. Each round centers on a simple cash-out decision: players start the run, track the multiplier as it climbs, and choose when to cash out before a failure ends the round.
BetOnGames positions the release as a thematic extension to its crash portfolio, using anime-inspired character design and visuals including a neon city atmosphere and cherry blossom elements.
The company said the game is designed for “fast player engagement” and for operators seeking more variety in instant games, particularly for audiences that prefer short sessions and high-tempo gameplay.

Vegangster Integrates ZingBrain AI for Smart Game Recommendations Across Operator Lobbies
Vegangster has integrated ZingBrain AI‘s smart lobby personalisation into its platform, adding a new layer of game discovery for players across Vegangster-powered brands.
Casino lobbies now feature AI-driven recommendation sections tailored to each player’s preferences, much like those on Spotify or Netflix. Players see personalised rows such as “Picked for You”, “Because You Like…” and “Try Other Games With Similar Mechanics”, which point them to relevant titles. These recommendations can also be presented directly in Vegangster’s own Scroll & Play feed, giving each player a personalised discovery experience in a well-known format.
According to ZingBrain AI’s published results, smart lobby personalisation delivers a 5–15% uplift in GGR and turnover, 10–15% more games played, and a 5–10% increase in player active days, while cutting time spent on lobby management by 80%.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, commented:
“ZingBrain works hand in hand with our own Scroll & Play feed: the engine decides which games are right for each player, and Scroll & Play puts them in front of them as gameplay clips they can watch and jump straight into.”
In practice, this changes how the lobby works for both sides. A player who keeps coming back to crash games sees fresh titles with similar mechanics instead of the same generic top grid, and players returning after a break land in a lobby built around what they already love. Operators, meanwhile, stop curating lobby positions by hand: a new game release reaches the players most likely to enjoy it from day one, without competing for a banner slot.
Another application of the engine is provider cost optimisation. Operators set priority levels for individual providers and games based on deals, campaigns, or new launches, and ZingBrain applies those priorities to personalised recommendations. In A/B tests across four brands, this redirected up to 20% of turnover and GGR to more profitable titles, with no drop in player performance.
The integration is now available to all Vegangster operator clients.
