Slot machine design evolution is in fast-forward! Mega-multi-line "penny" slots are replacing "dollar" slots. High-res, multi-layer video screens create realistic 3D "reels" that aren't. "2nd story" bonus games and multi-screen formats add drops, cut scenes, and brand-licensing opportunities. Al Thomas, President and Founder of Bluehare Studios, shares experiences in the thick of the ongoing radical technical and design innovations around real-world slots and how to use these principles in creating social/mobile slots.
