Master the mechanics behind mobile social casino success

2020

We've shipped 47 social casino games since launch

Our curriculum comes from managing actual monetization systems and retention mechanics in games that generated real revenue. No theory—just what we learned from launching products.

How we work with students

Different students need different levels of support. We offer three ways to get feedback on your code and designs as you build your projects.

Async reviews

Submit your code through the platform and get detailed written feedback within 48 hours. We look at architecture, implementation, and suggest specific improvements.

Live sessions

Book a video call to walk through your project together. We debug in real-time and explain why certain approaches work better for mobile social casino games.

Cohort groups

Join a small group of students working on similar projects. Weekly calls where we review each other's work and share solutions to common problems.

Curriculum Development

Your questions shape what we teach

Every course update comes from student questions and struggles. When five people get stuck on the same implementation detail, we add a new lesson or example project that addresses it directly.

  • Monthly content updates based on student feedback from that period

  • New code examples added when current ones don't click for multiple students

  • Extended modules created when a topic needs more depth than originally planned

  • Community-requested project templates for common social casino features

What makes this different from other courses

Most mobile game courses teach generic Unity patterns. We focus specifically on the mechanics, monetization, and retention systems that work in social casino games.

We don't teach general game development. The entire curriculum focuses on social casino mechanics—slot math, progression systems, virtual economy design, retention triggers. Each module builds a specific feature type you'll actually need.

The instructors all worked on shipped social casino titles. Kiran ran monetization for a slots game that did $8M in its first year. Astrid built the progression system for a poker app with 2M monthly players. They teach from experience, not theory.

Learning by building real features

Each module includes a working project that implements a specific social casino mechanic. You're not just watching—you're writing the code for slot reels, daily bonuses, progression systems.

Projects use the same tech stack as production social casino games. When you finish Module 4, you have a working slot machine with proper RNG, configurable paytables, and basic animations.

Real implementations you can study

Every lesson includes complete, commented code for the feature being taught. You can run it, break it, modify it—that's how you learn what actually works.

  • Full source code for each project module with detailed inline comments
  • Step-by-step build guides showing how each system was constructed
  • Common mistake examples with explanations of why they cause problems
  • Performance optimization notes specific to mobile social casino constraints

How we verify mechanics work correctly

Social casino games need specific testing approaches. We show you how to verify RNG fairness, test economy balance, and ensure retention mechanics trigger properly.

  • RNG verification techniques to prove statistical fairness of slot outcomes
  • Economy simulation tools for testing virtual currency flow over time
  • Retention metric tracking to validate daily bonus and comeback mechanics
  • AB test framework setup for comparing different feature implementations

Getting your game live

The final modules cover practical deployment—app store requirements for social casino games, analytics setup, soft launch strategies, and initial live ops.

  • App store compliance requirements specific to social casino category
  • Analytics implementation for tracking key retention and monetization metrics
  • Soft launch checklist and what to monitor in your first week live
  • Basic live ops setup for running timed events and promotional offers

What happened after they finished the course

Now at Gamevil working on slots

"I had Unity experience but zero knowledge of social casino mechanics. The course taught me how progression systems and virtual economies actually work. Built a portfolio project during Module 8 that got me the interview."

Launched independent slot game

"Used the course projects as the foundation for my own game. The monetization module saved me months of trial and error. Shipped to Android in four months and hit profitability in the second month live."

Game reached 15K downloads in first quarter
