A GIFT'S JOURNEY

How a gift reaches the game

Four stops, in under a second.

  1. A viewer sends a gift

    From TikTok, Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Starvios: a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

  2. OverInteractive

    Receives the event, checks your active profile for the matching effect and sends it.

  3. Subnautica mod

    A mod the app installs in the game folder, together with BepInEx, that applies every effect to your diver and the sea around them.

  4. Subnautica · save

    The creature, the heal or the item reaches your game as soon as the gift arrives.

STEP BY STEP

Getting started

Everything happens from the game's status bar, at the bottom of the app.

  1. 1

    The app finds your game

    It detects Subnautica in your Steam library. If it lives somewhere else, press «Set path» in the «Game» step of the bar below and pick the folder the game is in.

  2. 2

    Install the mod in one click

    Press «Install mod» with the game closed. The app puts BepInEx, the standard mod loader for Unity games, and the OverInteractive mod in the game folder.

    If the game is open, the app asks you to close it before installing.

  3. 3

    Open the game and load your save

    Open it from Steam or with «Launch game» and load your save.

  4. 4

    Wait for «Connected»

    The bar below switches to «Running · Connected». From then on every gift reaches your game.

  5. 5

    Choose what each gift does

    In «Profiles» create an example one in a click or build your own: each gift, follow or chat command fires the effect you pick.

EFFECTS

What your chat can do

Each effect is assigned to a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

Your diver

Heal, hurt without killing, poison, invincible, swim twice as fast or in slow motion, a shove, a shaking camera… or killed outright.

Oxygen

Fill the tank, empty it in one go, a leak that burns it four times faster or infinite oxygen for a while.

Hunger and thirst

Feed and hydrate the diver, or leave them hungry and thirsty.

Items

First aid kits, water, food, batteries, flares and materials like titanium, copper, gold or diamond, straight into the inventory.

Day and night

Jump to noon or midnight, or make the day race by.

Creatures

Schools of fish, lone predators or packs and random leviathans, with the viewer's name on screen. Plus a button to remove them all.

One tile per creature

42 of the game's creatures to pick from: harmless peepers and rays, stalkers, sand sharks, warpers, the Reaper Leviathan, the Ghost and the Sea Dragon.

IMPORTANT

Before you go live

Effects need a game in progress

In menus, on the loading screen or with the game paused nothing is applied.

Chat creatures are temporary

They leave on their own when their duration runs out and are not written to your save: a gifted leviathan does not move in next to your base.

Hunger and thirst depend on the mode

Food and water effects only act in Survival and Hardcore. In Freedom and Creative the game has no such meters.

Some effects kill

«Kill Diver» always does and a leviathan can finish you or your vehicle. Put them on expensive gifts.

FAQ

Underwater, a few metres from the diver and towards where you are looking if there is room. If you are inside the base, the submarine or the lifepod, they appear outside, in the water around it.
