What is gd streamer?#

gd streamer is a web-based overlay system for tabletop wargaming streamers. It gives you broadcast-grade scoring overlays, real-time data updates, and tablet-based player input -- everything you need to run a professional-looking stream without a production crew.

You set up a match, players enter scores on their phones or a shared tablet at the table, and your OBS overlays update automatically as scores change. No manual data entry during the stream. No alt-tabbing. No mistakes.

Who is it for?#

gd streamer is built for:

  • Tabletop wargaming streamers covering Grimdark 10th Edition, Fantasy 4th Edition, and other competitive games
  • Tournament organizers running live broadcasts of competitive events
  • Esports broadcasters who need reliable, real-time scoring graphics

Whether you stream casual games from your garage or broadcast a major tournament, gd streamer gives you the tools to look like a professional production.

Key features#

28+ real-time overlays#

Choose from a library of overlay graphics -- scoreboards, player cards, round trackers, score banners, and more. Every overlay has a transparent background so it layers cleanly on top of your stream in OBS. All overlays come in two visual styles:

  • Tech -- sharp, angular, command-center aesthetic
  • Glass -- frosted glass panels with a softer, modern look

Player input#

Players use their own phones or a shared tablet at the table to enter scores, select secondaries, and mark battle tactics. Every change pushes to your overlays in real-time -- no middleman required.

Info
Player input is available on Standard and Studio tiers.

Timer#

Run a countdown timer or set a target end time. The timer overlay displays on stream, and both players can see it on their player input screens.

Co-streamer invites#

Invite a co-streamer to help manage your matches. They get access to the same dashboard and can update match data alongside you -- without sharing your account credentials.

WTC scoring support#

Running a World Team Championship event? Toggle WTC scoring mode on any match to use the official WTC points calculation alongside standard victory points.

Stream Deck integration standard#

Control your match with a Stream Deck. Advance rounds, start/stop/reset timers -- all from physical buttons without touching your keyboard.

Event schedule studio#

Display an event schedule overlay showing upcoming matches, times, and table assignments -- perfect for multi-round tournament broadcasts.
