This, no language come close to AS3 in term of scripting and ease of use
Clearly ahead of its time, unfortunately, its fate was poorly managed, they should have went open source and a clear focus on WASM/WebGL and now WebGPU
Luckily some folks went ahead and created Haxe [1], they even used it for world class game titles, engine fully open source [2]
There is even an open implementation of Flash API [3]

- Frotag 4y agoI gave Heaps a try because I wanted an engine that wasn't tied to any specific editor but ultimately gave up on it. I put in a few weekends of effort but the documentation was just way too minimal [0] and turns out it can't really target mobile platforms out of the box [1]. Even the main developer apparently just outsources mobile ports to another company.
