Coming Soon - Go Live: A Full Stream Overlay
I've got two VTTs coming very soon: one is called Derelict, a custom sci-fi horror survival VTT that can handle those types of games (but it's primarily aimed at a Sci-fi crowd), and a Cyberpunk VTT.
I'm hoping to release these in the next 2 weeks.
Today, I want to update you on Derelict. FYI, I'm planning to bring its features to our other established VTTs.
TLDR: This is a big one. You can now broadcast your sessions to Twitch or YouTube with a complete live overlay — crew, dice, maps, break screens — all driven from inside the game.
Derelict's New Features:
One paste into OBS. Drop a single link into a browser's source, and a broadcast-ready layer sits over your game, updating live. No plugins, no fiddling.
A director's chair. Flip scenes and spotlight an NPC, a location, or a lore entry to your audience from a drawer inside the game, and hand the controls to a co-host with the new Streaming Producer role.
Scenes for every beat. "Starting Soon" and "Be Right Back" break screens with a countdown, live crew layouts with portraits and standees, and a comms scene showing two speakers side by side.
Dice that land on camera. When a roll settles, a big result flashes on screen and lights up the roller's card, with optional 3D dice rolling in real time. Roll Stats, Saves, or Panic straight from the sheet.
Be the camera operator. Frame, zoom, and pan any slice of your sector map so viewers see exactly the region in play: click a hex to reveal that system with the Aliens-style typewriter readout. Trade routes now curve and draw themselves on.
Battle maps on stream. Show the party's battle map from the players' side, fog and all, and drag a targeting box to keep the action centered.
Coming soon
- More scene polish, and the same broadcast kit heading to the other ShawnsVTTs game systems next.
