Early Access Software

Get involved with this software as it develops.

Note: This Early Access software is not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to use this software in its current state, then you should wait to see if it progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I choose Early Access to learn more about how people use Hype Riders: User feedback will inform development and help me improve user interface, user experience and usability—especially in regard to the complex customization options and tools.
I also want to allow users to start creating custom assets and profiles, prior to the app's full release.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“For the content and feature set that is currently planned, I expect Hype Riders to be in Early Access for about 3 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of Hype Riders is going to contain more customization options, quality-of-life features, preset profiles and content. Features, workflows, and UI/UX changes will reflect user feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“In its current state, Hype Riders is a functional and highly customizable Hype Train overlay. The Early Access version comes with only two basic preset profiles, but the app's true power lies in its customizability: While some options and quality-of-life features are still missing, you can already customize settings and import your own image/audio files, to make a truly unique overlay!”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“I don't plan to change the price when Hype Riders leaves Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I will collect user feedback, through Steam Discussions and other channels, to help prioritize features, improve user interface/experience, create tutorials, and fix bugs.”

About This Software

All Aboard the Hype Train!

Hype Riders is the highly-customizable Hype Train overlay for your Twitch stream: Show the hype and celebrate your viewers' generosity by bringing the fun on to the screen:

  • Highlight your viewers and show their avatars and/or names, on stream

  • Visualize the hype in train or karts mode: The higher the Hype Train level, the faster it goes!

  • Customize the overlay to match your style with easy-to-use tools

  • Quick to set up: Simply run the app, authenticate with Twitch, and add the transparent overlay window in your streaming software (i.e. OBS, Streamlabs, etc.)

How About Some Friendly Competition?

In kart mode, your viewers race each other by contributing to your Hype Train: They gain points for each Bit donation, Sub, or Gift Sub. The more points they have, the further ahead they are in the race!

A chatter can join the race by donating as little as 1 Bit or 1 Sub. When the Hype Train ends, a scoreboard lists each of the racers! 

Make It Your Own!

High-quality, default visuals for both train and karts: Use the built-in editor and tools, to change colors, add image elements, build your own trains and karts, and make the overlay match your streams' vibes!

Want something truly custom? You are not just limited to trains and karts! You can build the visuals fully from scratch: Import your own custom graphics, sounds, and music, to make a unique Hype Train overlay, all of your own!

Customize the Look of Individual Viewers, too!

Want to do something fun for your regulars or favorite chatters? Decorate their car to make them stand out—or give them a different vehicle entirely!

And It Doesn't Stop There...

Set up different sets of decorations, cars, and visuals, depending on...

  • Twitch User ID

  • User Points Total

  • Hype Train Level

  • User's Position in the Race

  • ...

Get creative with all these possibilities and build a unique, eye-catching Hype Train overlay that is like none other!
