1. Game Logic & RNG
Implemented core slot mechanics: reels, paylines, multipliers, and bonus rounds.
Integrated a cryptographically secure RNG for fair and verifiable outcomes.
Managed game session lifecycle, tracking bets, wins, and active bonus features in real-time.
2. Wallet & Transaction System
Designed secure wallets for bets, wins, jackpots, and payouts.
Integrated with payment gateways and ensured fraud detection and regulatory compliance.
Implemented atomic transactions to maintain balance integrity and prevent errors.
3. Real-Time Communication
Built WebSockets and Redis caching for instant spin results, balance updates, and leaderboard synchronization.
Ensured low-latency, reliable gameplay across web and mobile platforms.
4. Database & Analytics
Used PostgreSQL for transactional data and Redis for session caching.
Developed analytics pipelines to track player behavior, game performance, and bonus usage.
5. API & Integration Layer
Developed RESTful APIs for web and mobile clients, supporting secure and low-latency interactions.
Integrated with third-party game providers for extended gameplay and additional slot themes.
6. Admin, Monitoring & Security
Built admin dashboards for spin monitoring, jackpot management, and player support.
Implemented logging, monitoring, alerts, and disaster recovery to maintain high availability and integrity.
✅ Outcome: Delivered a robust, secure, and high-performance backend that ensures a fair, seamless, and engaging slot gaming experience across web and mobile platforms.
