I'm a web dev that tried to find a job in browser game dev. Until I realised that there aren't many positions to go around. Only making slot games for online gambling companies really. The rest of the opportunities were not in browser land, but Unity or Unreal Engine. And good luck getting past the millions of techbros who want these positions.

Yes, the browser game market is dead except for gambling and education - that’s because browser games run instantly with 0 installation. Almost no jobs. However, if you can find them they pay much better than Unity/Unreal jobs because html game dev is such a rare skill. The decision tree you need to follow to end up as a html game specialist is so fraught with distractions almost no one ends up there. But, for those who do I recommend Phaser.
