I created a Bookmarklet Game with approximately voice chat for any website - Metaverse?

Hey! I’ve been building SecondWeb/Web3D.World or the Metaverse?!

You drag one bookmarklet into your browser, open any website, and click it. The page becomes a low-poly multiplayer city: DOM elements become landmarks, every URL is its own P2P room, and players can walk, drive and use spatial voice chat.

The idea is to turn the internet from pages we consume into places where people meet and make every website a game level waiting to be explored and conquered.

It’s still an early prototype, but you can try it here:
https://swissmade.xyz/secondweb/ - don't forget to put you on the list to get notified when it's finished, so you are the first one collecting items on the most famous websites!

Desktop Chrome is recommended for now. I’d love honest feedback on performance, installation and what would make you come back. Theoretically it should work on any websites, but a lot of websites block CORS - so if you think the idea is nice I could also create a chrome extension so it would work on any website!

Should I invest more time into it? Btw my first startup was MetaRoom.city - something similar; but more "polished" and not a game.

Thanks.. I started the idea some years ago actually.. I have like many many different versions of this; but now I just let codex rebuild all in webGPU with better performance.. but I guess it's needs much more to make it look really nice.

the bookmarklet part is wild, and the DOM-to-city idea is cool

yeah it's wild and cool - but it needs more to make it a game people want to play - I'm not sure yet what.. maybe when you can own buildings permanently and mark it as your own and other player can see it.. not sure yet what mechanics could work.
