Ixitxachitl's Stream Tools
Game Wheel
Can't decide what to play? Load the wheel with your games, give it a spin in front of chat, and let fate pick. "Tonight we're playing…" — no take-backs. Watch out for surprise visitors drifting past.
The wheel with its control panel open. On stream you can hide the panel and make the background transparent so only the wheel shows.

Questions
What are the surprise visitors?
Every so often a little friend (an astronaut cat, a UFO and more) drifts across the screen. Click one for hearts, or press E to call one in right away.
Can I spin it from my normal browser instead?
Yes. Open the wheel in your browser and add it to OBS with a Window Capture. The transparent background only works as a browser source, though, so you'll see the starry sky.
My games list is different in OBS and in my browser
That's expected. Each browser keeps its own saved list, and OBS counts as its own browser. Set up the copy you actually show on stream.
