i consider this approach fairly nice and simple for 'flashgames':
http://repo.hu/projects/animator/

reads drawing commands from stdin
(optionally) writes events to stdout

so game logic can be a separate process in whatever language

(of course it has limitations eg only vector graphics,
no bitmap operations like blitting and audio has to be
handled separately)
