In this build, we also built it for 32-bit platforms (armv7 and x86) as there was some demand for it, so you'll find the APK is a bit heavier. Following on from the addition of OccluderShapeSphere in 3.4 , lawnjelly now brings us a more adaptable and easy way to add basic occlusion culling in the form of the OccluderShapePolygon.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. Rendering engineers are rare to find, so this can be a starting point. As for DirectX12, it's only relevant for Windows/UWP, so there is no strong incentive for us to support it as a cross-platform engine.
