I learned and released my first gamedev project - a multiplayer arena fighter (http://kikiki.io) . Still have a couple hundred people playing per day, but no longer maintained.

These days, I'm learning React/React-Native to build a marketplace that connects photographers with people who want better dating photos.

>> multiplayer arena fighter

I'm curious - are there a lot of tutorials or learning resources out there for this kind of game? I feel like I see a lot of them. modd.io is a whole platform for making these kinds of games almost exclusively.

I basically used two open source projects as learning resource . I recommend checking out https://github.com/huytd/agar.io-clone and https://github.com/ahung89/bomb-arena . Simply playing around with those code, tweaking them, and modding them, allowed me to go from knowing nothing about gamedev, to learning about how to create one.
