Custom Stream Overlays for Twitch, Kick and YouTube

A stream overlay for Twitch, Kick or YouTube is the graphic layer that sits on top of your game and your camera inside OBS: frames, starting and BRB screens, and the details that make your stream look like yours and not like a template. At Epik Streamer we design every overlay around your personality and brand, and you can buy it per unit at $20.

What an overlay is and who it’s for

The overlay is the most constant visual part of your stream: it’s on screen while you play, talk and react. That’s why it’s the first thing anyone entering your channel picks up on. An a la carte overlay makes sense if:

• You already have a visual identity and just need one piece (for example, the BRB screen).
• You want to refresh a scene without redoing the whole channel.
• You want to try our style with one piece before committing to a pack.

What’s included

The service is one overlay designed around you. It’s sold per unit, so you decide how many you need: one overlay for each unit purchased, with one revision included per piece. Any other piece or format you didn’t order is treated as an additional service and charged separately.

Sizes and platforms

An overlay is designed around the canvas of your broadcast. These are the official references for each platform:

• Kick supports a maximum of 1920 x 1080 and 60 fps, with CBR and the H.264 codec (it doesn’t support H.265).
• Twitch documents 1080p at 60 fps with 6000 kbps, CBR and a 2-second keyframe interval as a reference.
• YouTube recommends 6 to 17 Mbps for 1080p at 60 fps with H.264.

That means a 1920 x 1080 canvas is the usual starting point on all three platforms. If you use another size, tell us in the brief. For alerts and chat boxes, OBS recommends a Browser source using the URL from your provider; that source has a default size of 800 x 600 that you adjust yourself.

How it works

1. You buy on PayPal. One-time payment, in full, with no later charges.
2. You send your brief over WhatsApp or Discord. Think about your story, your games and schedule, your main platform, your colors, your fonts and the creators you admire (and what you don’t want to copy).
3. Production and delivery. They start once the brief is complete and the payment is made.
4. Revision and approval. You get one revision included per piece; from the second, there’s a charge. With payment in full and your final approval, usage is assigned to you for your personal brand and channel.

Common mistakes when ordering an overlay

• A vague brief. “Something gamer” isn’t enough. An imprecise brief can mean additional billable revisions.
• Crowding the screen. A very thick frame covers your game. Think about what information must always be visible.
• Forgetting the camera and chat. Tell us where your camera and chat go so the design leaves room for them.
• Changing the concept after approving it. A revision adjusts within the approved concept; changing concepts is a new production.
• Mixing styles. If you already have alerts, panels or emotes, share references so everything matches.

A single overlay or a pack

If you need one or two pieces, buying a la carte is the direct route. If you also need a logo, panels or a banner, look at the Boost pack, which includes a logo, 3 overlays, 3 panels and 1 banner for one platform. The Creator pack adds 5 overlays, 5 panels, a banner, emotes, badges and OBS setup. Compare the sum of what you’ll need with the pack price and choose.

To complete your scene, pair your overlay with alerts and panels. If you want to better understand how an overlay is put together, read the guide to making a stream overlay.
