i love this. i don’t understand why web games like this aren’t more prevalent
They are. There's a LOT of web games on itch.io. It's just the typical challenge with over saturated markets: publicity.
They are incredibly hard to market, I built a web game and it’s so hard to get traction lol
And it’s quite a bit more polished than most web games. Too complex though so I’m fixing that.
Competition. Marketing. Expectations.
In the 1990's and early 2000's I loved building web and flash games, people had lower expectations, getting notice was easy (StumbleUpon etc) and there wasn't a lot other choices.
