This looks cool! Note that on mobile the mode selector cards cover the whole screen and could be mistaken for start buttons. Scrolling to the game settings (with the actual start button) after selection would reduce confusion here.
AWS Lambda and Firebase are both notoriously expensive ways to host APIs. I would really push you to look at those as your next targets for sustainability focused cost cutting.
I think they are good options for personal projects until it reaches a scale where costs really start to matter. For individuals, hosting servers are way more expensive and we rarely end up paying with serverless options. Geoguessr already has been having many alternatives so I expect it is hard to reach the point.
Looks fun! Consider using a Loader when starting a Game. I was not sure if the site is lagging because nothing happened for 5 seconds. Would be good for user experience if their is a loader. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback! Yes I definitely need to improve the the UIUX for mobile layout.

Thanks for playing it and giving me the feedback! I actually forgot adding it there. Will work on it soon!
