HTML5+JS is the best stack for games that will work in the browser without installing any additional software. PixiJS and Phaser seem to be two great libraries. However, it is nontrivial to cheat in JS games. And I'm not aware of any game dev-specific IDE for HTML5 games; the development will be more "manual."
