New Stream Garden Widget for OBS & Streamlabs Free Interactive Chat Widget

🌱 New Stream Garden Widget: Interactive Widget for OBS & Streamlabs

If you’re looking for something different to make your stream feel more alive, this one’s for you!

StreamSpell just released a brand new interactive widget, and it’s currently free during its testing phase.

Meet the My Stream Garden Widget: a cozy, interactive plant that grows live on stream, powered by your chat.

Your viewers can actively participate using commands like:

  • !water
  • !care

Each interaction helps the plant grow faster, turning your stream into a shared experience instead of just a broadcast.

Since this is a new release, it’s still evolving, and your feedback plays a big role in shaping what comes next 💙

🌿 What Is the My Stream Garden Widget?

The Stream Garden Widget is an interactive browser-source widget designed for:

  • Twitch streams
  • YouTube streams
  • Kick streams

It works seamlessly with:

  • OBS Studio
  • Streamlabs
  • StreamElements

No downloads needed. Just add it as a browser source and you’re ready to go.

🌱 4 Widgets Inside the Stream Garden System

When you set up My Stream Garden, you can enable and customize four different widgets:

1. Plant Widget

This is the main visual element of your stream garden.

You can customize:

  • Toggle garden title visibility
  • Background visibility
  • Background color
  • Background opacity
  • Background roundness (border radius)
  • Title color

How it boosts engagement:
The plant becomes a shared goal between you and your chat. Instead of being passive viewers, your audience actively helps it grow using !water and !care. This creates a sense of ownership and makes people more likely to stay, interact, and come back to check the progress.

2. Growth Ruler Widget

Tracks your plant’s progress visually.

You can customize:

  • Show or hide the growth ruler
  • Progress start color
  • Progress end color (gradient effect)
  • Text color

How it boosts engagement:
This widget turns interaction into visible progress. Every action from chat contributes to something they can see evolving in real time. It adds a subtle “progress bar psychology” effect that encourages viewers to keep interacting until the plant is fully grown.

3. Plant Activity Event List Widget

Displays chat interactions like !water and !care.

You can customize:

  • Show or hide event list
  • Text color

How it boosts engagement:
This is where recognition happens. Viewers see their usernames appear when they interact, which creates instant feedback and social validation. It encourages more people to join in just to be part of the activity showing on screen.

4. Top Gardeners Widget

Highlights your most active viewers.

You can customize:

  • Show/hide widget
  • Show/hide title
  • Rank background color
  • Background opacity
  • Background roundness
  • Card color
  • Card opacity
  • Card roundness
  • Title color
  • Text color

How it boosts engagement:
This adds a competitive and gamified layer to your stream. Viewers are naturally motivated to climb the ranking and become top gardeners. It rewards consistent interaction and makes your community feel seen and appreciated.

Typography & Behavior Settings

You also have control over global settings like:

Typography

  • Font family
  • Font size
  • Text style

Interaction Rules

  • Total growth duration (journey hours)
  • Minutes per !water
  • Minutes per !care

How this impacts engagement:
You can control the pacing of interaction. A faster growth cycle creates quick rewards, while a longer one builds anticipation and encourages viewers to return across multiple streams to see the final result.
