Say I make a game that uses SDL for graphics and compile a linux version of it. Instead of going through the hassle of using Android SDK/NDK to make it a proper installable apk, would it be viable to have it be run as a program off termux?

According to https://www.reddit.com/r/termux/comments/105fjt8/how_to_install_and_run_sdl2/,
Though that would probably be different to what an actual APK would be at the end due to the X11 layer
Not quite what I asked. I meant, if I make a linux executable, for ARM cpu, that uses SDL (suppose all libs and dependencies are packed in) and run it from termux, will it work?
It won’t, because there’s no graphics display, so SDL won’t initialize.
You need to install and launch Termux:X11 to provide a video surface, and it won’t support GL acceleration.
I think that SDL can do aalib and libcaca.

Hmm. No. I must be thinking of
mpv.SDL 1.2 could do aalib, but apparently 2 cannot:
