OWOT was first launched on June 8, 2010, by the developer and creator of Your World of Text.<ref>https://twitter.com/yourworldoftext/status/15743326242</ref> It was created as an alternative to Your World of Text that allows unrestricted scripting. In early August 2015, it was announced that OWOT would shut down on August 20th due to funding issues. Weeks after its original shutdown, control of the domain was handed to InfraRaven to start a revival of OWOT. The revival was based on the heavily modified [https://github.com/reverie/yourworldoftext YWOT source code] from 2010 and featured a new menu design and a loading screen.
