May I know why we would need Android when we can use assembly language? Ubuntu would not be sufficient. Beauty of assembly language is its ability to not dependent on any platform - right?

This is in response to a comment about absence of such games in Android.

Interesting. "[D]irectly manipulating the state of a computer can be powerful, but few people code in assembly by choice.

So I was surprised to find not one but three polished games that do a surprisingly good job of making coding in assembly language fun. To be clear, none of these titles involve writing assembly for real hardware. They all use virtual systems with minimal instruction sets. Still, they do capture the essence of assembly coding, with complex behaviors squeezed out of simple commands."
