Krishna Gurung has today joined Mutuel Play to work alongside Paul Spencer on the front end development of the games portfolio. Krishna and Paul have worked together at GECO in the past with great success having developed Geco/Playtech’s ‘Double Juicy’ game, which is a top performer on The Sun Bingo.

Rhys Owen, Director at Mutuel Play had this to say on Krishna joining, “Krishna and I worked together at GECO and I was impressed by Krishna’s determination to deliver and appetite to learn. He’s still young and I feel he has a lot to offer a new start up company like Mutuel. He has also done some app development in the past, which I feel will prove valuable to us as we expand our portfolio.”

Kerim El-Hakim has today joined Mutuel Play to lead the design of a number of projects. He has worked in the gaming industry for quite a number of years and his experience will be invaluable to Mutuel in it’s early stages. Kerim led a number of platform revolutionary projects at Virtue Fusion/Playtech most notably the design of their new reactive Tablet and Desktop HTML5 bingo client.

Rhys Owen, Director at Mutuel Play had this to say on Kerim joining, “Kerim always impressed me whilst at VF/Playtech with his ability to lead and manage a project from concept through to delivery. He has a knack for delivering exactly what is right for the consumer. In this infant stage of the start up I know I can rely on Kerim to take hold of a project and take the design lead. He’s a very talented designer and knows the industry well, I couldn’t have found a better person to join the team.”

Paul Spencer has today joined Mutuel Play as the first ever employee alongside Founder and Director, Rhys Owen. Paul has a vast amount of design and front end development experience in the gaming sector from his time at Dynamite Ideas which was acquired by GTech and then at GECO Gaming. Paul built a number of front end components within the GECO framework including a seamless wrapper for all the development partners as well as some great content.

Rhys Owen, Director at Mutuel Play had this to say on Paul joining, “it’s fantastic that Paul has put faith in me to join Mutuel Play as it’s first employee. Paul and I worked together at GECO Gaming and I was impressed by how well he and Krishna delivered Double Juicy on time and with little or no issues. That gives me great confidence that the underlying code he is producing is robust and decent. What’s great is I know he has so much experience in gaming that I can let him get on with it and I just make sure all the pieces of the puzzle align to not hold anything up.”
