Hi on91,

  1. no, not really. I'm the only contributor and I'm not using it anymore.
  2. It has not been tested on C5, but I suspect that all that's needed is replacing the CHICKEN version in the build.
  3. I never used these, but I think the eggs have been tested on arm platforms. Again, Should Work™ but not tested!

I have done some experimentation on re-packaging existing apk-files instead of this complicated build-from-scratch approach. I haven't released anything but I could if you'd be interested in looking into it. It's how the Godot game engine does it, although Chicken would be slightly harder since there is a compilation stage.

How are you planning on using C5 on Android? Game prototyping? Best of luck!
