Newgrounds is helping develop Ruffle, a Flash player built in Rust that runs (via WebAssembly, I think, though it technically supports ASM.js via emscripten) in HTML5 browsers: https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle

Good luck. I know of a previous Flash player built in Rust that was killed iirc by Adobe's lawyers after years of development.

Is that why Shumway was abandoned?

Uh, source on that claim? The Flash player specification and even its VM are both open and unencumbered.
