GDWC Submission - Our Roguelite Slot Machine Adventure!


Hey everyone!

We're excited to share our latest creation that we submitted to the Game Development World Championship (GDWC) - a unique rogue-lite gambling game that puts a fresh spin on the classic slot machine formula!

What Makes Our Game Special?

A rogue-lite gambling game where you upgrade your slot machine.

The core concept is simple but addictive: start with some coins and a basic slot machine, then progressively upgrade your way to slot machine mastery! But here's the twist - it's not just about luck. Strategic upgrades and meta progression create a compelling loop that keeps you coming back for more.


Key Features

Contains: Meta Progression, Upgrades & Boss Fights

  • Strategic Upgrades: Transform your basic slot machine into a coin-generating powerhouse
  • More Rolls & Spins: Extend your gameplay sessions with upgraded mechanics
  • Free Games & Bonus Money: Unlock special features that boost your earnings
  • Boss Fights: Face off against challenging opponents (because even slot machines need epic showdowns!)
  • Meta Progression: Your progress carries forward, making each run more rewarding than the last

The GDWC Experience

Submitting to the Game Development World Championship has been an incredible experience for our team at SharkBlaster Games. This slot machine game is actually one of three games we submitted to the competition!
Each project explores different genres and mechanics, showcasing our team's versatility and passion for game development.

Creating this particular prototype pushed us to blend familiar gambling mechanics with rogue-lite progression in ways we hadn't explored before, and it's been exciting to experiment with such a unique concept alongside our other GDWC entries.

This GDWC submission is just the beginning! We're passionate about this concept and plan to continue developing it further. The prototype has shown us the potential of this unique genre blend, and we have tons of ideas for expanding the gameplay, adding new upgrade paths, and refining the overall experience.
