"silly bot" was a Node.JS bot written by Fox, operating under the Uvias display name '''silly_bot'''. Silly bot would invisibly listen to new incoming messages sent in Global chat for as long as the script was active. When a chat participant sent a message matching certain regexes, the bot would optionally reply back with an accompanying message. For example, "meow" may reply with "meow", "mrrp", "mrow", or "mew". For each message matched, registered users would be rewarded with "silly points", an arbitrary point index system of zero value. Silly bot also had a few commands users can invoke, such as '''!optout''' to opt out of replies, '''!leaderboard''' to view the top 10 users with the largest amount of silly points, or '''!help''' to view a list of commands.

Silly bot would (invisibly) listen to incoming messages sent in Global chat for as long as the script was active.

For example, if a participant sent a message containing "''meow''", silly bot may privately reply to the participant "''meow''", "''mrrp''", "''mrow''", or "''mew''".

Rocket

On November 13th, 2024, fox introduced a moving rocket ship that could be manually controlled via a keypress. To its right was an updating piece of text that counted how many tiles the rocket had traveled in a given session.

The rocket was a work-in-progress. fox planned to give it the ability to move diagonally, as well as have it preserve the text it passes over instead of deleting it; in the meantime, fox used the rocket as a tool for erasing spam.

The rocket was inspired by Mr. Black's car, a script that fox had witnessed a few months prior. The car contained most of the features that fox had planned to add, with the exception of an odometer.

Demo of the rocket script, used in this example for wiping text

In March of 2025, fox had attempted to rewrite the rocket script with assistance of a (now discontinued) Node.JS library fox had written. While mostly successful, for various reasons unknown to fox, the code experienced countless bugs, errors, and other weird behaviors, which was demotivating for fox and eventually lead to the discontinuation of progress on both the rocket script and the library altogether.

Other projects

Custom OWOT client

As of June 2025, fox is currently working on fox's own from-scratch client to OWOT written in vanilla JavaScript for the browser. Development is currently halted. The code for this project was based off of the code of the 3D image painting script.

fox's main goal is to create a canvas renderer that is about as optimized, quick, and efficient as possible. fox also aims to create a better user experience for newcomers and frequent users alike, as well as to expad upon OWOT's existing feature set, mainly through wider user customization, although these are not the primary goals for this project.

Currently, many helper functions have been borrowed from the official OWOT client, although fox intends to rewrite these functions in the future.

Discord Foxway

A Goatway remake launched in July of 2025.

Foxway is hosted on a separate Discord server, where messages from OWOT's Global Chat are automatically forwarded. Each username from chat is represented by a unique APP account whose appearance can be customized using bot commands. APP accounts representing anons use the incognito symbol as their profile pictures.

As with all other Goatways, Foxway can also forward messages from Discord onto the Global Chat.

March 15th, 2025

Our World of Vectors, or OWOV, is [Information to be added]. fox plans to make it more account focused, so as to negate much of the toxicity created by OWOT's anon population.

Scar32 came up with a similar idea in June of 2023, proposing the following:

"Our World of vector is an infinite vector editable by any visitor. The changes made by other people appear on your screen as they happen. Everyone starts in the same place, but you can scroll through the world using your mouse."

AndreiXYZ brought up the idea as well. Both of them were likely inspired by Uvias Vector, a scrapped project by FP which would have allowed users to sketch and draw lines on a (presumably) infinite canvas.
