This is an unfinished tool for packaging OHRRPGCE games for Android as .apks in a much easier way than the standard, extremely convoluted, way used by the OHRRPGCE developers. But it is not yet recommended, and no games are known to have been released in the wild using this tool.
Currently it includes a precompiled copy of the OHRRPGCE from 2016. It needs to be modified to download official up-to-date builds. Also, it creates a keystore but does not sign the .apk which you would have to do manually in order to be able to submit to app stores.
It requires the Android SDK and Apache Ant, which it downloads automatically, as well as Python.
It was originally created by Kevin Veroneau heavily based upon Pygame Subset for Android/Ren'Py Android Packaging Tool by Tom Rothamel and Patrick Dawson (see also the pgs4a fork), which in turn is based upon Python-for-android.
These notes, although very old, may still be relevant.
