There are actually games written in Clojure that run on Android quite well. A bit slow to start up, but not nearly as bad as I had expected. Take a look at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.friendlyvillagers.ballz&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5mcmllbmRseXZpbGxhZ2Vycy5iYWxseiJd https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.friendlyvi... and check out their development blog. EDIT: The guy who did NightWeb talks about Clojure on Android here: http://nightweb.net/blog/clojure-on-android.html http://nightweb.net/blog/clojure-on-android.html
