No questions were posted and one must thus conclude that you guys know everything you need already We see no further use of this thread and motions for it to be closed. No Q&A will be held in the future but Thunderkick will still answer the odd question now and then as we see fit (in other threads, this one is dead to us).

For Thunderkick games, only we (the software provider) has the ability to alter the math (and thus the RTP). Doing so would be considered an incident and as such must be reported and approved by the licensing body. Any change in RTP value (let's say from 96% to 95%) must also be reflected in an update of the rules accompanying that game.

Do you know how casino games work? No. Would you like to know? Then this is the thread for you. We at Thunderkick have a proposal to you all. If you post a question about Thunderkick, our games or the casino industry in general, we will attempt to answer it. We will, for starters, answer one question at the end of every month (roughly). That is it. You game? UPDATE: We removed the provisions in an act of good faith. We would still like to see screenshots of big wins from our games accompanying the question but it is no longer required.

The (Theorethical)RTP is fixed as of the moment the game has been through the certification process. Once the game is exposed to players, no manipulation of the RTP is allowed without the approval of the relevant licensing body (MGA, Aldernay, AAMS, UKGC etc). So in practice it is impossible for us to change the RTP of a released game without risking the licence. Only in the case of a bug in the math will we take the steps necessary to fix and re-certify an already released game. Some casinos have in their EULA a protection clause that caps wins to a certain monetary value. That is purely done to protect the casino from going broke from one lucky high roller. Such caps may have an adverse affect on the actual RTP but only in the very slightest as such wins are incredibly rare and generally only affects the extreme high rollers (those bettings 200$ or more per spin). Hopefully this answers your question.

You can always ask. If it is a question that is of a "zipped lips" nature we will tell you why that is. We will only answer a question that involves us directly or the casino industry in general. Legal stuff you know.

Thunderkick just went MOBILE! Esqueleto Explosivo has been successfully ported to a mobile format. Let the fiesta spread across the world! More games will follow shortly. As a bonus in these happy days, Thunderkick will answer one question (within reason) from the player base regarding slot construction.

It is indeed based on Gonzo Pizarro. Some of Thunderkick's staff had a previous engagement with NetEnt and know this first hand. This is no secret. (Stockholm is a small place sometimes.) -

Regarding Yggdrasil and their game we have no information about how it works but from your description it sounds as if they randomize every bonus spun outcome in advance and then just show them in the client one after the other. The are certainly some benefits to this approach and it will not change the randomness one bit compared to Thunderkick's approach (which is more in line with NetEnt's solution). The downside is that if the casino is informed about the result before the client has shown it and the casino shows an achievement it will give the game away so to speak. And that seems to be the case here.

The win-switch strategy will not help one bit. The odds of hitting two huge wins after each other is equally low if you play the same slot or switch to a new one (assuming the two slots have similar payout structures). Just thought we game developers could chip in on this discussion

Some regulated market have imposed maximum bets per spin and maximum bets placed over time. They also have mandatory breaks (once per hour of play). Most responsible casinos also adhere to the G3 group which stipulates additional, albeit voluntarily implemented rules and regulations. But what is clear is that there are super rich players out there who can afford massive bets and they want to play online. So having super high bets (like $200 per spin or more) is necessary to attract those players. In the end, it must be up to the player to decide whether he or she can afford to lose money by gambling (and you will all lose in the end, that is the truth). Too much regulations will only push the market underground making it less safe.

She also wins a lot

And we appreciate you for that just as much as we do the super-high rollers

It is for real. We have players betting 200 EUR per spin and they make thousands of spins a day(!). One of the players at Casumo is betting on max bet on Esqueleto Explosivo and she plays all the time. Some people have deep pockets...

Another great birds show (Click to watch replay). PS. Due to a small bug in the replay playback engine for that version of the game (1.3.0), the bet is incorrectly shown as 300 Euro while in reality the bet was 300 BRL (Brazilian Real) which is roughly equivalent to 90 Euro. The rest is correct though
