Comedy World was a theme that debuted in 2009, most known to be used for GoAnimate videos more than any other themes, and it's the most beloved theme on the website. It is based on Seth MacFarlane's animated sitcoms, such as Family Guy and American Dad!. This is evident by the fact it has the name "Family Guy" in the character creator data, and numerous instances of traced backgrounds and assets.

History[]

Release[]

September 14, 2009: Comedy World was added, under the name Custom World (Custom referring to the Custom Characters aspect, being the first theme to include the feature).
Early 2010: Custom World was renamed to Comedy World.
2010-2011: Some of the old Comedy World CC assets was going to be replaced with new assets, though the old Comedy World assets would remain on the stock characters.

Retirement[]

January 4, 2016: Comedy World and the other non-business themes were retired on the mainstream GoAnimate website. The reason for the removal of all non-business themes is because Vyond was switching from Flash to HTML5 and another reason why Comedy World were retired is that the website didn't want to get sued by Fox.

Comedy World's Unofficial Revival[]

July 26, 2016: Comedy World and the other non-business themes were retired on the GoAnimate for Schools website. However, they were somewhat retrievable via Requestly on both sites.
January 9, 2017: Prior to this date, it was noted that the character creators were still on the website, and on this day, they were removed. Requestly codes that linked to this would instead crash the website, but the users continued to find alternative routes to the character creators.

Vyond's Attempt to Patch Requestly Rules[]

June 27, 2017: Vyond removed the URL many were redirecting to. This affected people's ability to use Comedy World, however this was quickly bypassed by updated codes.

Comedy World no longer being usable on Vyond[]

December 19 or 16, 2019: The Legacy Video Maker was retired, leaving Comedy World and the other non-business themes no longer retrievable.
December 20-21, 2019: A Requestly code and 000webhost were used to get the Legacy Video Maker and the Character Creator back, making Comedy World and the other non-business themes retrievable again, however, GoAnimators/YouTubers stated that they will not reveal the code or being asked of how they got the Legacy Video Maker back due to GA community being put to rest. The code itself has also been replaced by the introduction of LVM ports such as Wrapper: Offline, which does include Comedy World and the other pre-HTML5 themes by default.
2020 (Unknown date): The legacy API was destroyed, resulting in the Legacy Video Maker being permanently inaccessible on Vyond, along with all videos made with it (including ones involving Comedy World). That same year, Wrapper: Offline was released, and it contained all the themes including Comedy World.
September 9, 2023: FlashThemes, a web-based revival/clone of the Legacy Video Maker and pre-Vyond GoAnimate, was released, restoring Comedy World's presence to the internet.
