== Catha'vi ==

Line 55:

Line 90:

It played films at ~5 fps using a grid of 80x25 characters. Graphics were initially rendered using colored full blocks(█), but later updated to a combination of half blocks(▀, ▄) and cell background colors for double the resolution. Subtitles were included to make up for a lack of sound, though they were often out of sync with the scenes.

~~/movienight hosted several screenings throughout 2024, featuring movies such as:~~

* Shrek

* The Mario Movie

* etc.

~~While the world was active, a voting system existed, but was purely cosmetic. There was also a Discord server dedicated to the page.~~

/movienight shut down in August of 2024, but Catha'vi hinted one year later that the world might return sometime soon.<gallery widths="200">

== e_g. ==

[[e_g.]], also knowns as Meowcer, is a veteran scripter within the community.

=== /orpvpboss ===

Inspired by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH951OcqqYY.

[https://ourworldoftext.com/orpvpboss /orpvpboss] was an interactive game that allowed users to play a ''[[wikipedia:Candy_Box!|Candybox]]''-esque side scroller. It was released by e_g. on October 18th, 2025.

Users could use [[comu]] links to control the player character, executing actions such as moving left/right, attacking and defending. There was also an admin panel that let players spawn enemies, adjust healthbars, and increase/decrease difficulty.

Three enemy types existed:

* Red stick figures that moved from right to left. These enemies would taunt the player and call them a noob during a game over.

** Clicking the "defend" comu link placed a barrier in front of the player character, which would block attacks from the red stickmen and gave the player time to recover health.

* Planes that dropped bombs as they passed overhead.

** Clicking the "up" comu link placed a barrier above the player character, which protected against bombs being dropped from overhead.

* A massive (''compared to other enemies'') [[Image pasters|braille image]] of a ''Minecraft'' zombie that moved from right to left and bulldozed everything in its path.

** These enemies had an absurd amount of health and are mostly intended as an absurd gag, i.e. impossible to defeat.

There was also a score(tick) system that constantly increased so long as the player character was alive. On the night of the world's release, e_g. and [[Falling1]] were able to achieve a high score of 1378 without cheating using the admin panel. <gallery widths="300">

== Trivia ==

* Animated scripts also exist on [[Your World of Text]]—with the most notable example being the infamous [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/Roombas Roomba]—though they tend to be much slower due to the site's lower rate limits.
