Note that it's also possible to create the Godot project in a separate directory and export it as a `PCK or ZIP file <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/export/exporting_projects.html#pck-versus-zip-pack-file-formats>`_
to the Android app's ``assets`` directory.
Using this approach requires passing the ``--main-pack <pck_or_zip_filepath_relative_to_assets_dir>`` argument to the hosted Godot Engine instance using `GodotHost#getCommandLine() <https://github.com/godotengine/godot/blob/6916349697a4339216469e9bf5899b983d78db07/platform/android/java/lib/src/org/godotengine/godot/GodotHost.java#L45>`_.

I don't think we need to specify res:// in --main-pack res://<pck_or_zip_filepath_relative_to_assets_dir>. Example should be enough.


.. code-block:: kotlin

override fun getCommandLine(): MutableList<String> {
return mutableListOf("--main-pack", "res://game.pck");
}

The instructions below and the sample app follow the first approach of creating the Godot project in the Android app's ``assets`` directory.
