*For animated scripts on YWOT, see Moving Text Objects

*See also: /tileAnimator, a world that allows users to create small ASCII animations

Scripts that create the illusion of movement by rapidly pasting and deleting text.

Unless stated otherwise, all gifs here are playing at real time.

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.
