Crazy Streamer: The Future of Slots Meets the Energy of Live Streaming

We spoke with Anna Serheieva, Head of Partnerships at Onlyplay, about the future of online slots, the growing influence of streamers, and the innovative features behind their latest game, Crazy Streamer.

How do you see the future of online slots evolving in the next few years? Are there any trends you’re particularly excited about?

Online slots are becoming more and more exciting and interactive. People no longer want to just press a button and watch the reels spin - they want to feel part of the action. I'm really excited to see more social opportunities and ways for games to utilize their skills. In the future, I think we'll see even more community atmosphere and cool gaming features.

What role do streamers and influencers play in the slot industry today? Do you think their impact will grow even more?

Streamers play a big role because they attract people to slots. They entertain, showcase new games and help players get used to them. I definitely think they will become even more important over time. Players like to see real reactions and get a feel for the game before they play it. That's why we created Crazy Streamer - it will bring everything that happens during live streams to the game, while still maintaining the feeling of a big win.

With regulations changing in different markets, how does Onlyplay approach compliance while still delivering engaging games?

Dealing with new regulations is always a challenge, but we try to follow them without letting the games become boring. We focus on keeping things fair and clear, but we also come up with fun new ideas. In this way, we comply with all requirements while still giving players something interesting to enjoy.

Player preferences are constantly shifting. How do you balance innovation with keeping core slot mechanics familiar and enjoyable?

It's all about updating things without completely changing what people love. We take the classic slots that everyone knows and add fresh, interactive moments. In Crazy Streamer, we've kept the familiar slot style but added three cool themes - Fruits, Egypt and Fishing. We also add big multipliers of up to x100 and an Overflow feature that increases your winnings. It's a new and exciting slot, but it's still comfortable to play.

What do you think is the biggest challenge for slot providers today, and how is Onlyplay tackling it?

The hardest thing is to stand out among the many games. You have to catch the players' attention with something special. At Onlyplay, we rely on unique features like TapGame™, stunning themes and top-notch design to keep players engaged and having fun.

Crazy Streamer is clearly inspired by the world of content creators. What made you choose this theme, and how did it shape the game’s features?

Streaming is a huge part of entertainment and we wanted to bring that atmosphere to slots. Crazy Streamer conveys that fast, unpredictable energy you get from watching content creators where anything can happen and become big. The game's features, such as changing themes and huge multipliers, simulate excitement of chasing huge winnings as the streamer chases his next viral moment.

The game has a high volatility rating. What kind of player did you have in mind when designing it?

Crazy Streamer is a game for players who love thrills and big rewards. Due to the high volatility, you may not always win, but when you do, the winnings can be huge - such as multipliers of up to x100 in the free spins. This is perfect for those who love fast slots and the excitement of chasing one huge, game-changing win.

The multipliers in the Free Spins round can go up to x100, which is huge! How do you ensure balance while keeping that excitement factor?

These huge multipliers are a blast, but we've made every effort to keep things fair. The math of the game is set up to make it exciting yet balanced, and the RTP is 95.50%. The Overflow feature helps too - after a win, the winning symbols disappear, new ones take their place, and you can keep increasing your winnings in the same spin. This keeps the excitement alive while ensuring fair play.

What was the biggest challenge during the development of Crazy Streamer? Any standout moments from the process?

The hardest part was to make the switching of themes smooth, but still maintain the feel of a high-energy streamer. We wanted players to feel like they were on a live stream, where the host reacts and changes things on the fly. One of the coolest moments was when we made the transitions between Fruits, Egypt, and Fishing - it was like flipping through a real streamer, and it really brought the game to life.

If you had to describe Crazy Streamer in just three words, what would they be and why?

Exciting, dynamic, rewarding. It has the energy of a live stream, ever-changing themes, and big wins. The interactive host and unpredictable action make the game a total pleasure, and the possibilities keep you coming back again and again.
