I run a blog and gaming site focused on web games. We would like to interview some HTML5 developers about their cash flow situations.

Saw this comment about someone making around $1500 per month with an online solitaire game: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=23666935" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=23666935</a>

Not a developer but I guess most HTML5 game developers are focusing on itch.io etc platforms for money. Apparently, Html5 game can&#x27;t compete with native games on your mobile phones and should be only count for a very tiny part of ecosystem.

Currently building one that will launch this year. Pre-revenue, 5 figures spent on development, art and other expenses.
