YG Masters partner DreamTech Gaming releasing Elemental Princess using GATI


Yggdrasil, the leading worldwide publisher of online gambling content, has released its latest YG Masters game, Elemental Princess in partnership with Dreamtech Gaming.
The program’s most recent title transports players to the serene landscapes of the Far East, as four elemental princesses harness the powers of their chosen element to gift players with rewards.
The game has been configured using Yggdrasil’s pioneering GATI technology, which is used by all YG Masters partners, allowing developers to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to create cutting-edge content.
Rapid distribution across Yggdrasil’s entire distribution network enables all YG Masters partners to scale and accelerate their global growth strategies.
The 25 payline slot sees each princess have their own power, which can be triggered on any spin. Earth Princess spins see all Wilds on the reels become Earth Princess Wilds, while any high-paying symbols which are adjacent to these Wilds are also transformed.
The Water Princess can add up to 10 Wilds to the reels in random positions, while the Fire Princess adds a win multiplier of up to 10x. The Air Princess can turn all Wilds into Air Princess Wilds while also adding a Floating Mega Wild, which can be up to 3×3 in size.
If the bonus feature is triggered by landing three or more Scatter symbols, or by the Lucky Feature Trigger, then the powers of the princesses are magnified. At the start of the feature, a princess is selected at random, with her power lasting for the duration of the spins.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Partner Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Elemental Princess brings the powers of all four key elements together as players look to harness the Princesses’ abilities to win huge amounts.
“Our partnership with DreamTech Gaming has seen thrilling additions to our portfolio already and this looks set to be yet another hit added to the growing YG Masters offering.”
Thomas Lu, CEO of DreamTech Gaming, said: “This is our third release as a YG Masters partner and adds a different perspective after Ice and Fire and Medusa: Fortune and Glory.
“With helpful guardians of the elements on hand, players will enjoy their journey across the game and hopefully find bountiful riches throughout. Being part of the YG Masters initiative has allowed us to flourish over the course of the year and we’re already looking forward to the release of our next title.”

Kinetix Announces New AI Features

Kinetix, the AI startup bringing emotes to video games and virtual worlds, announced major advances in the generative AI technology powering its platform; including an updated AI model for motion extraction from videos, and an AI tool that applies a predefined motion to any animation in one click.
Traditionally, 3D animation has been an expensive and time-consuming process involving trained 3D experts, and specialist software and hardware. This is no different for emotes – animations that express emotion – which Kinetix is best known for pioneering. Its video-to-animation AI and no-code editing tools streamline the process for professionals such as game developers, and open up the creation of 3D animations to anyone. Kinetix emotes can be used with any avatar, within any video game or virtual world.
The new Kinetix tools have been released as part of version 2.0 of the Kinetix platform and feature a new generation of algorithms for motion extraction from videos, creating better results in terms of posture, translations, and grounding. The second key element is style transfer filters, an AI tool that applies a predefined motion to any animation, enabling users to create more expressive emotes. The first style transfer filters available are “Robot” and “Drunk” – animations which need little explanation – and the library of filters will be constantly added to.
Henri Mirande, CTO and co-founder at Kinetix, said: “With so much debate recently on generative AI’s potential to streamline and democratize creative processes, we’re proud to announce these advances in our custom AI model. They mean that we can now more accurately extract complex motions from video content – such as backflips, parkour, or sprinting up a flight of stairs. We have also found that a large number of our users enjoy creating animations from a pre-existing library rather than uploading their own videos. Our AI-powered style transfer filters can be used to enhance both custom-generated and stock animations, adding more fun and humor into the mix.”

Dallmeier Shortlisted for the European Casino Awards 2023

Dallmeier, an expert in video technology for casinos, has been shortlisted in two categories for the upcoming European Casino Awards 2023, its Panomera W8 360° cameras as “Best new innovative product” and Casino Automation Technology CAT as “Best table gaming product”.
The Panomera W8 is a 360° camera with 4K resolution ensuring complete 360° coverage without a “blind spot” below the camera. Six sensors are arranged in a circle, a seventh sensor covers the overall scene and an eighth sensor captures the blind spot below the camera. From these eight images, the software then stitches a complete image of the half-sphere around the camera location that has been captured without gaps. Within this overview image, multiple operators can open any number of detail areas with a mouse-click and zoom in and move around in these areas as if it was a PTZ cam.
Casino operators who use such systems report that they regularly reduce the time needed from the detection of an incident to the resolution – e.g., by catching an offender – by a factor of up to 10 or more.
Furthermore, the overall costs for monitoring the gaming floor are reduced. Although the costs per camera are higher than a PTZ system, far fewer cameras need to be installed. The resulting savings in installation, infrastructure, and maintenance as well as in operation itself outweigh the additional costs for the cameras themselves.
