The person who made Haxe (Nicolas Canesse) went on to found Shiro Games (https://shirogames.com), a game development company. I believe all their games are made in Haxe. The latest one, "Dune: Spice Wars" was released this September and Google says the engine is HashLink (https://hashlink.haxe.org/) which is a VM for Haxe.

I don't know any other companies who are releasing games in Haxe today.

I was surprised when found out some of the most successful indie games are made in haxe - Dead Cells, Papers Please, Dicey Dungeon, Northgard, rymdkapsel etc.
They made Evoland, which is a very cute game which begins with basic monochrome Game Boy-style graphics and becomes progressively more modern as you advance. It’s really fun, especially if tech history is your thing.
And Evoland 2 was pretty neat, if not a bit more... Strange, when it comes to transitions between gaming systems.
