Rust alternative for PyGame ?
Another simple 2d framework that targeted wasm and desktop was https://github.com/ryanisaacg/quicksilver but unfortunately it was abandoned :( and never had android support.

I want to learn Rust by creating game running in the web browser. Which SDK do you recommend?
quicksilver, though not really being developed anymore is still pretty good.

Paddlers (Rust Browser Game) 0.2.1 Feature Overview
Thanks! I'm currently not using an engine, it's all done "from scratch". None of the available engines quite had the WASM support I wanted. I started with Quicksilver but it was not flexible enough and it is no longer actively developed.

Good basic rendering & input library
quicksilver is a simple framework you can use. Sadly the main developer stopped working on it (PR's are still accepted though) but it is still pretty solid. It also has WASM as first class support and thus makes sure that its api is a good fit for the limitations that browsers put on code. (So, loading assets is async, your main loop is done using async, etc).

[Wgpu help needed] No color blending even with the option activated.
Here is my code: https://github.com/Maix0/pixel_engine/tree/wgpu/pixel_engine_backend (the draw calls is at the end of decals.rs, the rest of wgpu initialization is in lib.rs)

Rust alternative for PyGame ?
I have made my 2d own game engine name pixel_engine. It is very basic but simple to use. I am currently making change to properly support keyboard layouts. I recently made it work with wasm (only problem is that the keyboard is locked to qwerty for now

Usefulness of multiple graphics backend
This is my repo (readme is outdated but I will update it soon)
