# Livecade > Livecade is a browser-based platform for TikTok Live creators. It runs interactive games that viewers control with comments, gifts, likes, follows, and shares, plus the stream tools around them: gift effects, alerts and milestones, a text-to-speech comment reader, goal and timer widgets, a soundboard with GIFs, an audio mixer, and per-creator analytics. Everything renders through a single OBS browser-source overlay and works in OBS, Streamlabs, and TikTok LIVE Studio, on Windows and macOS, with nothing to install. This file indexes Livecade for LLMs: the platform features, interactive games, comparison guides, and documentation. See /llms-full.txt for the full text of every doc page. ## Features - [Gift Effects](https://livecade.io/features/tiktok-gift-effects/): Play a full-screen animation over your game when a viewer sends a gift.
