yeah I heard about the possibility of making games in HTML5. I'd say good, but having to make a web page for it is quite a big limitation for now. you have to wait for some gaming portal to add HTLM5 embedding I guess. (btw, I add a bunny to the count )
Whoa, I can actually play this on an iPad!! Nice!! The game was fun, the main problem is that the controls would lag. It's a pretty cool game; it reminded me of Metroid.
These are great but there is two problems with it. One, its not integrated into the page in the same way as a flash game. Two, everyone can easily see your code. Also, is this more processor intensive than flash?
It's not like you can hide it in flash either. People can decompile your games word for word. I grant that it's a bit trickier than just looking at the source but still.

Last time I checked the benchmarks were that it was and it couldn't do a lot of things that flash can. I don't see how html5 will be taken seriously (for game making) but maybe in the future it could develop to something interesting.
Html 5 is a different creature than what we used to have it's much more powerful and flexible. No need for external api's and most importantly the <canvas> element.
