Real games built with real mechanics

These aren't demo shells. Each game here is a working example produced during our courses — slot machines, card games, wheel spinners — all with proper RNG, bet logic, and UI flow.

What's inside each game

Every project covers the same core building blocks — the ones that appear in every commercial social casino title.

RNG Engine

Weighted outcome tables, seed control, and anti-streak logic so results feel fair without being purely random.

Core system

Paytable Logic

Symbol combinations, multipliers, and win-line evaluation. Students wire this up themselves, not just copy it.

Game rules

Balance System

Session credits, bet sizing, max bet limits. Tracks wins and losses across the whole play session cleanly.

Economy

Animation Layer

Reel spins, card flips, coin bursts. Timed properly so the animation and the outcome are always in sync.

Visual feedback

Audio Events

Win jingles, button clicks, ambient loops. Managed with a simple audio queue so nothing overlaps awkwardly.

Sound design

Responsive Build

Canvas scaling, touch input, and portrait/landscape handling — because most players are on mobile.

Cross-platform

How the curriculum is structured

Each course module focuses on one game type. You ship something working at the end of every module — not a tutorial project, an actual game.

6 game types covered across the full course

40+ hands-on coding sessions with instructor review

2019 year we started refining this approach

Module 1 — Slot Machine Foundation

You start here regardless of experience level. The slot machine is the most common social casino format, and getting the reel logic right teaches you most of what you need for other game types.

Reel strip setup and symbol weighting
Spin trigger, stop sequence, and result evaluation
Basic payline detection (3-reel, single line)
Credit system with bet per spin

Module 2 — Bonus Features & Free Spins

This is where most developers struggle — triggering bonus rounds without breaking the main game loop. You'll handle scatter symbols, free spin counters, and multiplier stacks properly.

Scatter detection and bonus trigger logic
Free spin mode with separate state management
Expanding wilds and sticky symbols
Return-to-base-game transition

Module 3 — Card Games (Blackjack & Baccarat)

Card games use a completely different logic model. You'll build a full card deck, shuffling algorithm, and hand-evaluation rules for both formats.

Deck representation and Fisher-Yates shuffle
Blackjack: hit/stand/double/split decisions
Baccarat: natural detection and third-card rules
Dealer AI and payout resolution

Module 4 — Wheel & Picker Games

Wheels, pickers, and prize reveals are common in social casino lobbies as engagement mechanics. This module covers canvas-based spinning and segment mapping.

Canvas arc drawing and segment layout
Spin physics with deceleration curves
Predetermined outcome vs. visual landing
Prize reveal animations

Module 5 — Lobby, Progression & Retention

The last module pulls everything together. You'll build a simple lobby that hosts multiple games, with daily bonuses and a level progression system.

Lobby UI with game selection and lock states
Daily bonus with cooldown timer
XP and level system tied to game results
Local storage for persistent session data
