Haven't tried the multiplayer, but it seems a really cool game. It

What exactly took ages ? The download, the loading on startup (unity
logo) or the stack4-splashscreen (logo) ?
the unity logo stayed around with a little spinning tracer in the corner
for a long time on first load. It seems to not be as slow on subsequent
loads.
Sounds like it was just Mono JITing the game's assemblies. (Although on
some platforms, Unity does AOT compilation - I forget whether Android is
one of those.)
Or maybe it was Dalvik JITing Mono itself, but I would think most of
mono was written in native C/C++ code, so I dunno. Do you know if you've
run any Unity-built program on the device before?
For me, the part you describe only took about a couple seconds the first
time (Galaxy S3). What device were you using? I'm curious because I'm
using Unity, too (albeit with Nemerle instead of C#, but still).
