Umm... perhaps use Flash? Just an idea, it might work...

Of course, to make anything decent, you're going to need to be able to program or spend lots of time learning flash, and that takes time and effort, not to mention the fact that you have to own Flash.

Flash software was developed by Macromedia for a reason -- its proprietary software which has been licensed.
For developing Flash applications you have to use Flash.

That website seems to be merely a place for developers exchanging Flash program's source code - it still requires a copy of Flash to actually compile.

But I still kind of doubt an open source Flash replacement will be coming anytime soon.

Yes true, but you are missing the point here. You just can't have a software which claims to create *.fla files and that too hand it out for free.
OpenOffice exists, that's true, but I hope you realize they can't even think of extending support for *.doc files (anyways only MS knows the format headers though there is always possibility of reverse engg).
A software which performs in a same way as another software is good to go, but a software exactly same as a licensed software sure sounds like walking on barbed wire....
