What is the real need in the original question?

Do you want a hot-mobile to heat your hand in Canadian winter?
Do you want to empty the battery in ten minutes?
Have you tried to port it yourself ?
(is there a C++ compiler for Android?)

At best, an "Android" port would rather use "The Clouds" (whatever it
would be): edit the scene on the phone/tablet, render in the clouds, get
sued or charged by the clouds's companies.

Just because you can't see it, it doesn't weigh anything,
and you can't drill a hole in it and stick a rivet into it doesn't mean
it's free.
