Would anything stop this from running on an ARM CPU? I don't know if any of the code is architecture dependent.

I want to run it on this, when it comes out: https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/pages/pyra/

  Should work fine. I'm pretty sure it's been built on raspberry pi
  before, so I don't see why there would be any issue.
