Mugen Gamepad Overlay is a native, local gamepad overlay source for OBS Studio on Windows.
It reads controller input through SDL3 and renders directly inside OBS Studio — no browser source, website, WebSocket server, or network input relay required.
Features include a built-in universal skin, support for local Input Overlay and GamepadViewer skins, analog sticks, triggers, D-pad, button remapping, controller hot-plug updates, and Xbox / PlayStation / Nintendo label modes.
Windows 10/11 x64 only.
Source code and releases are available on GitHub.
AI development disclosure:
Mugen Gamepad Overlay was developed by Mugen Art Lab with substantial assistance from OpenAI ChatGPT. AI assistance was used for code generation and review, debugging hypotheses, documentation drafts, test planning, localization, and release tooling.
The project author defined the product direction and requirements, made feature and interface decisions, built the Windows binaries, tested the plugin in OBS Studio on real hardware, evaluated visual results, reported failures, approved changes, and accepts responsibility for the published release.
