autoscrolling

Text moves itself

Autoscrolling is the automatic movement of content across a screen without manual input.

A webpage may autoscroll to bring new content into view, or a document may scroll continuously during a presentation.

In video games, autoscrolling levels move the screen at a fixed pace, forcing players to keep up: I died because the autoscrolling pushed me into a wall.
