> Gather.town is trying to do this, but I didn't like their implementation when I last checked it.

AFAIK they embed games / etc. in an iframe. What didn't you like about that?

The implementation was buggy and the interaction between the virtual world and games was unintuitive. A better interface would seemlessly embed the games into the virtual world (perhaps inside a "picture frame" or "portal"). This isn't an aesthetic complaint. It would mean that spectators could walk by and see what is going on in the games - just like peeking around a space in real life.
