This was made when I decided starting to work on a knock-off slot game would be interesting, since the online slots industry got so big I wondered how these games are made.
The game has similar features as the Sweet Bonanza game.
All of the work was done in Godot v4.4.1 using the built-in scripting language - GDScript and can be used as a reference project or even to introduce more features to it.
Initially my plan was to publish this game on the Google Play Store, but getting the game ready for that was challenging since it needs a lot more polishing. From my point of view the game is not ready, the interface would need an overhaul, animations would need to be reworked, the feature spins would need to be improved, but overall I would say that it has quite some potential to be turned into a decent game.

The main features implemented in the game:

the slots system, where all the symbols roll (that addictive animation of slots)
a basic currency system
feature-spin implemented and the cost is based on the amount the user wants to bet
a basic system that manages the winning probabilities and the return rate
a history bar/tab where previous popped symbols appear and the number of symbols popped
dynamic multiplier for each spin
dynamic bet size (feature implemented via a slider with a fixed value)

During development I tried to maintain a clean structure in order to easily find the files.
The structure is the following:

Quote:Project
>assets (all of the assets used in the game)
>images
>misc
>sounds
>sprites
>scenes (the project has only 3 main scenes)
>scripts (all of the scripts needed for the core logic of the game)

The value for each symbol can be modified in main_node.gd

Code:

...

var symbolValue = {

 "respinSymbol": 3,          # 3 symbols needed for a respin

 "valueSymbol_1": 0.02,      # each valueSymbol_n represents the value for 1 symbol popped

 "valueSymbol_2": 0.008,

 "valueSymbol_3": 0.005,

 "valueSymbol_4": 0.003,

 "valueSymbol_5": 0.002,

 "valueSymbol_6": 0.001

}

...

The actual winning value is calculated in _checkSymbols() function

Code:

func _checkSymbols():

 ...

 if(symbolsAppearances[symbolName] >= minSymbolsNum):

    var symbolWinnings = (((betValue * symbolValue[symbolName]) * symbolsAppearances[symbolName])) # calculations based on the number of appearances of the symbol

...

Also the game odds can be adjusted for better or worse rates (still in main_node.gd)

Code:

var baseWinChance = 0.35       # Base chance of creating a winning spin (35%)

var respinSymbolChance = 0.04  # Base chance of getting respin symbols (4%)

var minRespinSpacing = 10      # Minimum spins between respin features

var spinsSinceLastRespin = 0   # Track spins since last respin feature

var targetRTP = 0.96           # Return to player percentage (94%)

var winStreakFactor = 0.80     # Reduce win chance after wins (by 20%)

var lossStreakFactor = 1.20    # Increase win chance after losses (by 20%)

var consecutiveWins = 0        # Track consecutive wins

var consecutiveLosses = 0      # Track consecutive losses

var totalSpins = 0             # Track total spins

var totalBetAmount = 0         # Track total bet amount

var totalPayoutAmount = 0      # Track total payout amount

var currentRTP = 0.0           # Current calculated RTP
