Free Party Time Celebration Overlay for Raids, Subs, and Gift Subs

What does a raid look like on your channel right now? For most streams the answer is a small alert in the top corner that the new arrivals miss while they are still figuring out where the chat box is. Party Time replaces that beat with a confetti burst and a celebration animation that fills the screen for long enough to register, scaled to the kind of event that just happened.

It is free with Meld Studio. No watermark, no setup fee, no subscription required.

How the celebration fires

Party Time is reactive. Raids trigger a confetti burst with a celebration animation tuned for incoming traffic. New subs fire their own confetti and animation sequence. Gift subs run the same celebration with a configurable threshold, so you can reserve the visual for drops above a certain size rather than firing on every single gift.

The threshold is the part that makes the overlay sustainable on a busy stream. A channel that gets ten gift subs a week wants to celebrate every one. A channel that gets fifty gift subs an hour wants the celebration reserved for the bombs. Setting the floor is a single Meld Spark prompt away.

Events flow in from Twitch, YouTube Live, Kick, and TikTok Live at once. A raid on Kick fires the same celebration as a raid on Twitch, and a gift sub bomb on YouTube triggers the same animation. Multistreamers get one consistent celebration layer instead of a different alert system per platform.

When to use it

Party Time is built for the moments that should look like events. Incoming raids are the obvious one: when twenty new viewers land at the same time, the screen should agree that something happened. Gift sub bombs are the other natural fit, especially when you set a sensible threshold so the visual stays special. Sub waves during a hype train benefit from the same treatment.

The overlay sits on top of whatever scene it is added to, which means you do not need to build a separate celebration scene. Drop it into your main game scene, your Just Chatting layout, or your starting soon screen and let the trigger logic do the routing.

Customizing with Meld Spark

Meld Spark, the AI overlay editor included with Meld Studio, edits the overlay from plain English. A prompt like “Only trigger confetti on gift subs of 5 or more” sets the threshold without touching code. Recolor the confetti, add a custom celebration message, change the animation length, or wire a specific sound effect to the moment. Changes apply immediately and persist between sessions.

Adding it to your stream

Download Meld Studio and drop Party Time into a scene with no configuration. If you already run OBS, the free Spark Plug for OBS plugin loads the same overlay into your existing OBS layout as a browser source, with the same threshold controls and the same multi-platform event routing.

Use cases

• Incoming raids that deserve a real welcome

  A raid lands and the room jumps from quiet to twenty new viewers in seconds. Party Time fires a confetti burst the moment the raid hits, so the new arrivals see the channel reacting to them rather than scrolling past a default alert.

• Gift sub bombs and sub waves

  Gift sub thresholds let you reserve the celebration for the moments that actually deserve it. Set the floor at 5, 10, or 25 gifted subs and the overlay only fires when the moment matches the visual, which keeps the animation special instead of routine.
