About Nian Nian You Yu

As discussed last month, QA has become part of the process rather than a final stage. Product engineers consider from the planning stage what can be automated and what needs manual testing, while QA specialists now strengthen automation and identify gaps in coverage.

The responsibility for a piece of work increasingly extends from identifying the problem to building, releasing and measuring the result.

The transformation has not eliminated all of Cubeia’s concerns. And inevitably some coders are missing their original role.

About Nian Nian You Yu

Coming from the outside, I needed to gather a team to help steer the ship. In the two years since I took on the role, I have been blessed to work with some of the sharpest minds in the industry and I couldn’t be prouder of what we have achieved so far.

I won’t lie, when I first entered iGaming, I had my concerns. Aspects of the industry felt stuck in a state of stasis. People were making money, and as long as that continued to happen and margins were healthy, why innovate? Just keep doing the same things over and over, with marginal improvements when necessary.

As someone with a naturally curious mind, I found this frustrating. However, in a short period of time, I have seen positive changes. Recent regulatory shifts and an increasingly competitive landscape are pushing companies to innovate, and those unwilling to adapt are being left behind.

The provider frames the goal in engagement terms. BGaming says the rivalry makes the game feel more personal, drawing players in and inviting them to pick a side, creating the potential for longer play sessions and building streamer appeal. Streamer visibility in particular rewards recognizable characters and on-screen drama, which is where the voiced duel format is designed to pay off.

BGaming’s product chief tied the release directly to prior results. Julia Alekseeva, CPO at BGaming, said duel slots have proven to be a hit in the past, with titles like Clash of Gods Power Duel driving strong engagement, so the studio decided to take this further with Johnny vs Chicken. She added that the studio took two of its most recognizable characters and brought them together in what she called the ultimate BGaming IP showdown.
