Pointing →
The smallest possible game, dropped straight into a shared instance where you just watch each other's cursor positions move around in realtime.
Pong →
Pairs players together and starts a match immediately, as soon as there are two players waiting.
Chess →
ELO matchmaking that widens as you wait, both players accepting before the start, turn-based play with a clock running on each side.
Snake →
Straight into a realtime instance with many other players; new instances spin up whenever the existing ones fill.
Asteroids →
Fifty players on a scrolling, wrap-around arena bigger than the screen, predictable rocks and bullets, weighted replenishment, and per-viewer relevance so you're sent only what's in view.
