20 years of blogging: a two-decade journey through web gaming history

Briefing

Emanuele Feronato’s blog has reached 20 years, and the post is basically a quick look back at two decades of web gaming changes. The big arc is familiar to anyone who’s shipped on the web: Adobe Flash dominance in the mid-2000s, then the long transition toward modern browser tech, ending with WebGPU and 3D browsers in 2026.

Why developers should care is less about the anniversary itself and more about the reminder that web game development keeps reinventing its toolchain. The post positions the community as the real constant across those shifts, which is a useful lens for anyone thinking about browser games, portability, and how quickly platform assumptions can age out.

“Today, my blog turns 20!”
