    In my opinion (and just my opinion), Cocoon is not gone because HTML5 is not strong, but because it's getting easier and easier to use other tools to export HTML5 and get good fps doing it.

    That's was I was thinking, I keep seeing more and more making use of web tech to make games be it C3 or something else. I think their problem was the pricing, I mean anyone can use cordova for free right?

    That's what i felt also, when i started using them back in 2015 i think... for like 1 test and then when i asked removing the logo how much will cost ... i just said .... "ooooook cmd commands it is".
