As of today, our experience in the field of gambling game production is unrivalled, our potential undeniable. This applies to both land based slot machines as well as online casino games (iGaming). The experience and knowhow gathered over the years and in the course of many projects allow us to meet high-quality requirements and solve tasks of any difficulty - even if it requires learning “on the fly”.
We have developed a very flexible way of working with our clients. For each, we provide a customised team, depending on their needs and preferences.
The system we have introduced in our company in order to quickly recruit skilled professionals has proven itself incredibly effective, enabling us to increase our production capacity within a very short time if needed in order to meet all requirements. Because of that, our productive capacities are located where the greatest potential of first-class specialists lies - both artists and programmers.
At the heart of everything lies the "idea": A great idea, that’s what distinguishes an outstanding product from mediocrity. What the project will look like upon completion depends on the very first ideas and drafts.
High professionalism in everything we do – that’s the key to the success of any project. One can see it in the way we are able to understand the customer’s wishes, in the knowledge of current trends and the understanding of the market's demand, and in the creation of the first sketches that come to be complex materials and textures in high resolution (up to 4K) later on.
Our professional artists, who have more than 10-15 years’ experience, have thoroughly studied the market and are constantly monitoring its development. We have no style restrictions. The choice of style depends solely on the wishes and preferences of our partners. We quickly and easily master new styles and trends, always staying at the top of the trend.
As we are always ready to share our rich experience, we never hesitate to take the initiative and introduce our own ideas to the client while at the same time doing everything to meet his wishes.
The development of an interesting concept and the design of gorgeous graphics is very important for the creation of a successful game, but those aren’t the only crucial factors. One always enjoys looking at a pretty picture, but it is the animation that brings it to life, making it interesting and – quite literally – moving. Through perfectly coordinated animations of various elements, we bring the graphics closer to reality and thereby to the viewer. Just looking at the game becomes an exciting experience, all thanks to our original animation design. It is indeed a moving experience.
Our 2D- and 3D-animation specialists have accumulated years of experience. They know exactly how to reflect light, how to turn objects or to move people in order to make them look more interesting and realistic. Starting with the animations of the simplest objects and "special effects" and through to complicated and realistic person animations – we can produce everything in high quality. Even if it’s just lightning striking in the background – we take every little task seriously and approach it with a high level of professionalism!
We have mastered a wide variety of development environments that we use to create our animations. The following ones are in demand amongst our partners: Maya, 3ds max, Fusion, Adobe After Effects, Spine and of course UNITY. As always, we are ready to accept new challenges and can quickly acquire a new "package" if necessary while animating.
A high-quality 3D model that meets all of the customer’s wishes and the technical requirements and characteristics – that’s the base that interesting animations, spectacular transitions and video clips are built on.
We have mastered the production of three-dimensional models in all of the most popular programs - max, maya, blender, zBrush, 3d coat. And, as our experience shows, we can easily master any new packages if necessary.
It’s not without reason that our slogan is “all can be created”. We really can create anything and everything and know no restrictions – neither in terms of the style nor the forms or types of 3D-models. Starting with simple objects through to complex characters, from high-field models for the production of video clips and to economical low-field models that can be used in online environments and on hardware with lower performance characteristics – we will always create exactly what you need!
An important stage of working with 3D models, but unfortunately one which is practically invisible to the viewer, is the preparation of those models for their animation – skinning, rigging. Alas, it always remains “behind the scenes”, even though the quality of the character animation relies directly on their quality. It goes without saying that this work is done in accordance to the highest standards.
As already mentioned in the section about 3D-modelling, working directly in the UNITY engine is one of many skills we have perfected. Starting with the creation of simple objects right through to complex scenes, animations and gorgeous visual effects – our specialists are unsurpassed masters in this field. This is known and appreciated by our partners who are increasingly resorting to developments in this particular engine, including IGT – one of the leading companies in the industry. For them, we develop most of our projects in this particular environment.
At the request of the customer, DFX Art can develop the server and client software for iGaming. We are ready to take up both the creation of the whole game on a project basis as well as the partial writing of the code based on hourly calculations. To us, it doesn’t matter whether the final product is a mobile application, a web platform, a game for slot machines, or for a social casino.
Our experts have mastered blockchain technology, enabling us to develop slot games using smart contracts.
When developing the game as a whole, we guarantee that our result, starting with the graphic concept and through to the final product, will be amazing! Our graphics are incomparable, the code impeccable!
Many of our partners make extensive use of the UNITY environment, be it as an engine for social casinos, for iGaming, or even as a platform for slot machines. We have therefore thoroughly studied this engine and use it not only to develop high-quality special effects, but even as an alternative to standard HTML5 interfaces if necessary. Moreover, we have established direct contact with UNITY developers and have a good relationship with them, meaning that we can give detailed advice on any issues related to this platform if needed. Starting with technical issues and through to the specific conditions that need to be met to acquire gaming licenses.
Application development for iOS is a very important component of iGaming and social casinos. That is why we pay close attention to it and are able to provide it at the highest possible level. Our experienced programmers will easily carry out any development task, being able to use both the main environment Swift and other cross-platform frameworks.
Our regular partners made us realise that applications for Android are to be developed simultaneously with applications for iOS, as it is an established standard by now. Given this factor, we always strive to create the code in such a way that we don’t have to do the work twice, thereby saving our customers money. We can use both – solutions on the basis of UNITY as well as independent solutions on the basis of HTML5 technologies (React Native, PhoneGap).
Today, HTML5 is the most widespread technology and the undoubted standard for the development of web applications and platforms. And it definitely is dominating the iGaming market. To not have mastered HTML5 technology (pixi.js) today means to lag behind forever. But we always remain at the forefront, in the very first ranks and this means that we have mastered this technology as well as we have everything: at its highest level! When ordering a game from us, our customers don’t need to worry about how to put graphics and code together as we have an undeniable advantage: unrivalled experience in the development of graphics for games. And this means that our partners receive a complete and finished high-quality product from us!
To keep up with the times in the field of server development, we use programming languages such as C #, Python. We use Postgree SQL database that use redis but also any others if necessary. In our arsenal you will find the most modern Python frameworks. We also work with high-load projects. The use of blockchain and smart contracts is for us as easy as for most people driving a car but with the difference that the level of our “driving” corresponds to the skills of the best Formula 1 drivers.
The first place in the nomination for the best graphics of 2019 is awarded to the game made by DFX Art for IGT. Graphics and animation were in mixed 2D/3D techniques for Unity Engine.
DFX Art was founded by two experienced professionals in the field of computer graphics and programming – Stanislav Svarichevsky and Anton Zailinger.
They first created a computer graphics and computer game programming company back in 1999. That company was called ALS Group and became one of the most successful companies in the international market of cg outsourcing and programming straight from the beginning. The company’s priority was the development and creation of multimedia products and computer graphics for games. In our archive, one can find many of our successful projects in which we participated directly and actively - such as SpellForce, SpellForce II, Aquanox, Knight Shift and many more.
From the very first days of our cooperation, we managed to gain the trust and disposition of our new partners, all due to a non-standard approach to fulfilling the task, aimed at the best achievable result. Through intense communication and the study of the production processes directly at the production facilities of our partners as well as the study of their experience and preferences, we not only learned to understand their needs but also their individuality. Because of that and unlike other studios, we were able to find a way to achieve a result above average, whilst keeping our partners’ originality and without restricting them in their wishes. This is proven true by the success of most of our products on the market as well as by numerous awards, which our products have won and are still continuing to win.
From 2005 on, we started working with the company, Novomatic.
Once we set sail, our experience and professionalism were highly appreciated by other sailors of the sea, in particular by the company IGT. We had already worked with its Austrian office at the dawn of our voyage – starting in 2004 – and have a close yet highly professional relationship with its wonderful and talented people. Working on their projects is always an incredibly exciting and interesting undertaking, which allows us to reveal our full potential and at the same time to continuously improve.
For some time, we weren’t seeking a full sail, didn’t try to storm too many new bastions. We needed some time to assess the sea and also wanted to spend more time with our families. (We had to raise our children so that they could take over one day. After all, someone has to take our places on the captain’s bridge of our company after we decide to anchor in the quiet harbour known as “retirement”. Even if that anchor seems far, far away at the moment. ) But our children grew up and some of them started mastering our craft. And that means that we finally can command the crew: “Raise all sails! Full speed ahead!”.
As of today, our experience in the field of gambling game production is unrivalled, our potential undeniable. This applies to both land based slot machines as well as online casino games (iGaming). The experience and knowhow accumulated over the years and in the course of many projects enable us to meet high-quality requirements and solve tasks of any difficulty.

Practice has shown that the simplest and most convenient way to start cooperation with a new partner is to do of a pilot project. This usually is one small game. We can offer both – games for Slot machines as well as online games (iGaming). Many clients like to combine both, meaning that we first develop a game for the slot machine and adapt it for the online version later. It is also possible to start working solely with the graphics and to move onto complete projects later, once you have got to know us better. This approach is also quite popular and proves itself as it gives you the opportunity to get to know us without having to take any risks.
