Trivia

• Animated scripts also exist on Your World of Text—with the most notable example being the infamous Roomba—though they tend to be much slower due to the site's lower rate limits.
• Animation is technically possible on Our World of Pixels but faces similar constraints as YWOT.
• Bad Apple has been animated multiple times on all three canvases.
• As of 2025 no one has ever attempted to run DOOM in OWOT, though Guest-1052 one suggested that it could be done by porting msdos ASCII DOOM 1999 into the site. On another note, Catha'vi's world /doomwad contains the entirety of doom.wad encoded in octants; the world contains 3 mb of data and is roughly 246 coordinates long.
