Gibraltar – Fuga Gaming takes games to HTML5 via Odobo

By Phil - 9 September 2014

Fuga Gaming Technologies is the new worldwide and exclusive distributor for UMA Premium games.

Predominantly a land-based game provider it has over 70 titles featured in casinos and on cruise ships all over the world. The software house has excelled at building video slots, table, poker and bingo games, multiplayer systems, amusement with prize games, skill with prize and social games. Titles such as Bat Family, Ice & Flame, 3 Elements and Wild Kong have given Fuga significant market penetration, especially in Italy, North America and South America.

Earlier this year, Fuga announced its intention to make more of its games available online with a focus on Australia, Europe, emerging markets and mobile users in regulated territories. To do this, it applied an effective technological approach that allowed fast and flexible deployment of its games and, more recently, it selected Odobo as part of that strategy.

Odobo offers distribution to millions of active players worldwide via multiple operators including bet365 and Betfair. Odobo’s Developer Program and expanding reach is an ideal fit for Fuga Gaming’s requirements. Its modern and sophisticated technology has been consciously designed to increase the ease and speed with which games can be built, supplementing this with regulatory, compliance, localisation, QA and certification support.

Konstantin Mikhaylov, Managing Director at Fuga Gaming Technologies, commented: “We have vast experience in creating exciting products and of working successfully in different countries and under different gaming legislations. To bring our games online we wanted a modern and technologically advanced program with considerable understanding of the market that could make this process efficient and effective. In Odobo we have found exactly that.”

Peter Mareš, Chief Technology Officer at Odobo, said: “Odobo provides sophisticated and cutting-edge technology coupled with the games distribution Fuga is looking for. From our first conversation it felt like a natural fit and it’s a privilege to now be helping the team to realise its vision”.
Fuga Gaming is one of 25 active developers building games via the Odobo Developer Program. The Program is open to new developer applications.
