Creating Android and iOS Games
You can use Lumberyard to build your games for Android devices and iOS devices that use the A8 GPUs. Lumberyard includes two Android-supported sample projects and four iOS-supported sample projects that you can use to learn how to build assets, build shaders using the remote shader compiler, and build the Lumberyard runtime (Android) or iOS applications using the Lumberyard build tools.
