HTML5 : The Future of Mobile Games

In the past years, Adobe Flash was deemed the best and dominating technology used to create mobile games and other web-based content. It is no longer true in the present, however, as it is HTML5 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5 ), and not Adobe’s Flash that currently dominates the mobile and web-based games.

HTML5 has proven to be influential, especially within the mobile gaming (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_game ) world. It has even been said that HTML5 is the future of mobile games, as HTML5 is now incorporated in nearly three-quarters of all mobile websites.

This fact opens an immense opportunity for HTML5 game developers, as the future of HTML5 games is seemingly bright and promising.

HTML5 has been dominating the mobile gaming market. More and more HTML5 games have emerged on the market lately, and developers are constantly trying to optimize them to fit as many devices and platforms as possible. This can be done, as HTML5 can work across multiple platforms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-platform_play) , and it needs no additional plugins to run it. The platform is compatible with modern smartphones, and is available on PC, Mac, Android, iOS, and every web browser, making the games much more accessible, and easier to download and play. This feature highly benefits the developers, as it means increasing the number of potential customers.

For HTML5, this is just the beginning.  HTML5 is constantly evolving, and we can expect a constant improvement and renewed versions in the years to come.
