Web games moved way beyong these style of games. Complex 3D using three.js and rigid body physics engines in wasm workers like rapier is feasible now. We can do full multiplayer pipelines with server authority, client prediction and reconciliation and still run at 60fps. Its really amazing what can be pressed into a single html these days.

Everytime I try and use one of those Complex 3D web games, all 8 cores of my computer go to 100% and my computer becomes unresponsive until I kill the web browser.

Its really amazing how inefficient those Complex 3D web games are.

Breakout is still a good game even though we can 'do 3D'
