Sweet Success: Just Slots Launches Its Debut Game, Sugar Heaven
Malta based gaming software developer, Just Slots, has just announced the release of its first game, Sugar Heaven, and it’s already making waves by climbing into the top performing games list on its launch casinos.
The game, titled ‘Sugar Heaven’ puts a fresh spin on the classic 5×3 reel setup. This candy-themed slot game brings a tasteful twist, featuring 20 paylines packed with multiplier wilds and a special symbol that unlocks a variety of thrilling gameplay enhancements As a new studio looking to captivate multiple markets, Just Slots combines a familiar format with a surefire and mouth-watering theme to ensure universal appeal. The company isn’t afraid to experiment either, with its next game ‘Shogun Skylord’ promising an entirely new flavour in their diverse range of initial releases.

Early demonstrations to operators and players indicate that the game’s design has been a hit, exceeding performance expectations.
Commenting on the debut game, Christine Parkhill, CCO at Just Slots said, “We’ve crafted Sugar Heaven to provide a fun and enticing experience for players. As our debut game, we wanted to start with a theme that resonates universally, and what’s more appealing than candy? It was also essential for us to focus on every aspect of game design, from the underlying maths to the user interface, sound elements and beyond. By refining each of these elements, we aim to keep players thoroughly engaged and entertained.
“The initial feedback has been fantastic and it’s incredibly rewarding to see the game perform beyond our expectations. This early success reaffirms our commitment to innovation and we are excited to launch our next games over the next few months.”
Following the launch of Sugar Heaven, Just Slots plans post-launch updates, including bonus tools and in-game features, offering a new level of player engagement. As the company continues to expand its presence in the global gaming market, you can try your luck with Sugar Heaven on select gaming sites, with more releases coming soon.

F*Bastards says its casino content is now available through more than 400 operators worldwide, marking a distribution milestone for the iGaming supplier as it continues to expand its portfolio and partner network.
In a company statement outlining its background, Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas said the team’s earlier attempt to build a game studio fell short due to positioning rather than production capability. “Looking back, we realised we weren’t missing talent. We were missing identity. We could build games, but we hadn’t built something people could remember. That lesson became the starting point for everything F*Bastards would later become.” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
The company said it intentionally built its brand around differentiation, including the decision to use the name F*Bastards despite the expectation it would split opinion among potential partners. The founders described early progress as incremental, driven by game releases, industry events, operator feedback and relationship-building, rather than a single breakout moment.
F*Bastards also pointed to a fundraising milestone in 2026, saying it secured its first seven-figure investment. The company positioned the round as validation of execution rather than an early-stage concept.
“From day one, the goal wasn’t to become the biggest supplier. It was to build something people would remember. We’ve come a long way, but in many ways, it still feels like we’re only getting started” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
