Lantern Festival Alerts
A string of paper lanterns lights up for every alert, and a gift bomb sends one sky lantern up for each gifted sub.
A alert box overlay for Twitch and OBS
Lantern Festival Alerts is a free Japanese-style Twitch alert set inspired by summer matsuri. A string of paper lanterns hangs across the top of the screen and lights up from the centre out for every sub, cheer and raid, with the supporter's name glowing underneath.
Gift bombs get their own moment: one sky lantern floats up for each gifted sub, so a 20-sub bomb fills the sky. It suits cozy, anime, J-RPG and Japanese-game streams.
- Sub, gifted sub, bits and raid alerts
- Paper lanterns that light up one by one
- One floating sky lantern per gifted sub in a gift bomb
- Gift bombs counted once, not once per gift
- Alerts queue so none overlap
