The shared-room app was a Unity prototype in which several people on phones shared one virtual room. Players met in a virtual lobby that grew by one section for each live room; each room held up to 10 users, who saw one another as avatars, around an in-world slideshow screen. VRLab announced it on its forum on 2014-08-20 and built it for Android and iOS, with Google Cardboard support by 2015-06-12.
