Hey welcome to the Unity community!
While Windows/Mac OSX game development is very similar to working on an Android or iOS project, there are a few things that you need to consider. The most important is the controls and the hardware limitations. Unlike a modern PC, portables have many more hardware constraints, so you have to be more creative in how you utilize your poly budget, and how you work with textures. I would recommend that you check out the Penelope tutorial, as it explains step by step how to develop a game for a portable device. Even though it is geared towards iOS, most of that information can be used for Android as well.
Here is a tutorial on creating a 2d game with Android.
