I worked on a Flash implementation called Spaceport in 2012 or so. We had the most complete implementation apart from Adobe, with all kinds of goodies like actual hardware-accelerated graphics on mobile (far better than the buggy AIR). Tried to get Mozilla to buy us out, since they were looking for a way to incorporate an open Flash implementation more complete than Shumway, but they didn’t bite. Ended up acquihired by Facebook, product abandoned. I sometimes wonder, if things had gone differently, whether we could have given new life to the Flash ecosystem. Oh well.
