Hey @Jo Grimstad ! Good question. I think we're a long ways off in either case, but maybe Vulkan support in something like LibGDX would eventually make it easier. We have some more work in cleaning up the renderer in any case first though. The Java 8 features may also help some since we have a few advanced things that may not work on Android at present (asset scanning / reflection stuff for instance)

Not yet, it is still only an idea for a long term vision to switch.

We adopted the Destination Sol project in part as it was a working LibGDX game with a Steam and Android presence. Currently we're trying to cram some of our Terasology stuff into it to see if it still works on Android, while also learning a thing or two about LibGDX itself :)
