I haven't touched this project in a while, but it should work from what I remember, unless something broke in newer Android versions that came out since*. Sony makes both the PS Vita and Android phones, so the two operating systems are actually quite similar. You should just be able to rename the .vpk to .apk (literally a one-letter difference) and install it on your phone.
Keep in mind that if you do plan on using this on a phone, you will have to have a controller connected via Bluetooth or (preferably) USB. You're running literally the same programme as the PS Vita version, and that wasn't designed for a system without a controller built-in.

*Android 7 Nougat was the latest one at the time, which is the one I tested it on.
