Beat a boss, lose your rings, break a record — your overlays, lights and viewers react live to what happens in the game. 14,000+ retro games ready to play, zero setup.
Every game moment can become a show moment — automatically, the second it happens on screen.
You died? A roulette spins on screen and picks a challenge. Your chat decides your fate.
The boss shows up — a hype meter rises with every hit until the final blow explodes on stream.
Grab a coin, an emerald, a power-up — it rains on your overlay while chat watches the combo grow.
One heart left: the screen shakes, the lights turn red, and everybody holds their breath with you.
Your chat sees the high score getting closer in real time — and celebrates the exact frame you beat it.
Stage cleared: confetti, fanfare, stats of the run — without you touching anything.
Generic streaming tools react to follows and chat. Retro Creator reacts to the game itself.
Compose overlays with ready-made widgets — score, timer, now playing, boxart, achievement popups, input viewer. Drag, resize, style. Zero code.
Live score, lives, level timers and RetroAchievements read straight from the emulator through APIExpose. Your overlay updates the instant the game does.
Overlays are served locally as standard browser sources — compatible with OBS Studio, Streamlabs Desktop, Meld Studio and any software that renders web pages.
A high score or an achievement can trigger your existing tools: Streamer.bot, Stream Deck, Touch Portal, Discord, webhooks, MQTT / Home Assistant.
No account, no cloud required. Everything runs on your machine and your data stays there.
Fully localized interface, with more languages planned.
Launch a game — Retro Creator already knows its moments. No per-game setup, no capture tricks: the game itself tells your stream what just happened.
From NES to Dreamcast, the moments of more than 14,000 games are already mapped and ready to trigger your effects.
Home consoles, handhelds and arcade — one tool for your whole retro library.
The editor only offers moments that actually exist in the game you are playing — what you pick is what will fire.
Turn your stream into a real competition: your viewers launch the same retro game on their own PC, and their real gameplay feeds your live leaderboard.
Viewers type your !command, the bot replies with a personal short link. They confirm with Twitch — their game launches at home automatically, pauses on the starting line, and your dashboard counts who is ready.
A big in-game 5-4-3-2-1 countdown, then GO: every player starts at the same millisecond. First to the target, best score, time attack or survival — objectives are built on the game's real memory signals.
Race times and scores update live, finishers exit automatically, and you get a CSV export plus a stable JSON feed to display the podium right in your overlays.
Real screenshots from Retro Creator 1.0.
Install Retro Creator on your Windows streaming PC — it detects APIExpose (RetroBat) automatically, or runs in demo mode.
Pick a template or build your overlay in the designer, binding widgets to live data: score, timer, lives, achievements…

No. Install, launch a game, add one browser source to OBS — your first live overlay in five minutes. No code, no capture setup.
14,000+ games ship ready across 57 consoles — and the editor only offers moments that really exist in the game you are playing. Playing something rarer? A companion tool lets you teach it that game's moments while you play, and share them with the community.
OBS Studio, Streamlabs Desktop, Meld Studio — anything that can display a web page. Your lights and tools (Stream Deck, Streamer.bot, Discord…) can react too.
Demo mode lets you design and rehearse everything without a game running — and the free Lite edition has no time limit.
