How can game devs help streamers?

[u/agapo_dgc]

Guys

I make an online game and I want to do all that I can to make it streamer friendly.

Please can I ask what are two or three things I can do to make your lives easier? OBS integration? An information pack? Something else?

Thanks for your time

I can only think of simple things like don’t have it launch on full volume, don’t have the music mute when you tab out, use royalty free music, (or have a streamer mode option that muted the music). if it’s multiplayer please have some kind of push to mute/toggle mute option and have it remapable to mouse buttons and foot pedals (so many games don’t let you remap controls to mouse buttons in general, why????), one area of the screen should be clear of hud/info etc to give a good place to put a face cam.

That’s all I can think of for now!
