On December 25th, 2024, Banksy set about making a script based on the 2020 video game [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnqmBhr4vLM ''Carrion''] (which was also the inspiration for a [[The Carrion|popular blob entity]] from OWOT).

~~He used~~ two scripts ~~for testing, the first of which was a circular blob that Banksy could freely maneuver around~~ the ~~canvas. It had several abilities, such as creating a splash effect and attacking text using tendrils~~.

They created two testing scripts throughout the animated Carrion's development process.

The fully developed Carrion would more or less be a larger version of this script with more features and animations.

==== 3D physics simulations ====

The second testing script was a colorful program that rendered physics simulations onto Banksy's page. It spawned complex, 3 dimensional patterns that could grow and pulsate, and that became increasingly lifelike throughout the testing process.

Once an animation was started, Banksy could guide its growth by clicking at specific points on the canvas. This was meant to serve as a test for how the completed Carrion would move.

~~As it turned out, most~~ of the larger/more extravagant animations from this script did not make it into the final product. Some were cut due to technical restrictions and to prevent the Carrion from being too destructive.

Some of the physics simulations used small blobs (like from the first script) as a base unit for drawing lines. Banksy would later use a similar mechanism to create a dynamic brush tool.<gallery mode="packed" widths="200" heights="200" caption="Colored tests on [https://ourworldoftext.com/banksy /Banksy]">

==== Final version ====

The script was completed on January 7th, 2026.

The final product was a medium sized, meat colored blob that would automatically attack nearby text using thin tendrils. Like the 3D physics simulations, Banksy could guide its movement by clicking where they wanted it to go, upon which the blob would rapidly glide to the desired location using a special animation. There was also a mode where the blob would slowly travel towards Banksy's cursor, with Banksy using the space bar being to toggle between the two types of locomotion.
