Games developer Lightning Box has entered into a cross-licensing IP deal with Incredible Technologies.
The companies have collaborated on the integration of Incredible Technologies’ patented Sky Wheel feature to Lightning Box’ popular terrestrial title Astro Cat.
Astro Cat Deluxe, introducing the Sky Wheel Feature, has now been made available to Lightning Box’s clients in the online real money gaming and social casino sectors.
The Sky Wheel feature is triggered when 5 Sky Wheel symbols appear within the ReelFecta reel, setting the giant wheel above them spinning.
Players can win a Jackpot, entry into the Astro Cat Bonus, or a credit prize. Any credit prize is accompanied by a secondary spin of a small inner wheel for the opportunity to win a credit multiplier up to 5x, or a respin of the giant Sky Wheel.
Peter Causley, Lightning Box’s Managing Director and Co-Founder, said: “We’re really pleased to have teamed-up with Incredible Technologies for Astro Cat Deluxe, which is an exciting fusion of slot IP.
“The original game has been a real hit across the board and the Deluxe version has shown some stellar early performance in the USA since its launch late last year. We’re confident that the new game will also deliver similar success for our online operating partners.”
Dan Schrementi, VP of Gaming Sales and Marketing at Incredible Technologies, said: “The original Astro Cat is a proven performer and a staple in our catalogue of games. The addition of the extremely popular Sky Wheel feature puts Astro Cat Deluxe in a new spotlight and we’re excited to see it offered across land-based and online gaming channels.”
