Could you build this?
No Porting a massive, closed-source AAA PC VR title built on Source 2 (Half-Life: Alyx) to run standalone natively on Android/ARM Meta Quest headsets requires monumental reverse-engineering and engine engineering feats.
What it would actually take: It requires either full source engine recompilation/porting to Android OpenXR or dynamic translation of x86_64 DirectX/Vulkan VR calls to ARM Vulkan, alongside heavy asset re-baking and polygon reduction to fit mobile Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 thermal and memory envelopes. This necessitates a team of elite low-level graphics programmers, reverse engineers, and engine specialists with access to decompiled binaries or source leaks.
