Why Build Phaser Games?
Phaser is quickly becoming a must-know for developers, as it’s used throughout the world. Not only does HTML5 allow for cross-platform development, which is important given many gamers play on different devices, but it is also increasingly being adopted by other industries as the default markup language for their websites.
Phaser games join the rest of the gaming industry – which is seeing vast amounts of revenue growth. Many popular games have also been made with Phaser (or ported to Phaser) to take advantage of its ease of access and compatibility with evolving technologies!
