If it does not involve (I don't think it is an X11 app) the graphical display system, then it would be much easier to add virtual terminal support to that project.
JoppyFur's terminal uses only native mode access to the framebuffer and input event devices, based on methods that I published in "signature capture" and "eink algorithmic art" threads, also used in my published C programs. JoppyFur's program can run with the framework stopped, so it can be used in a RUNME.sh script for debricking purposes. With minor changes (different input device), it can be used when booting from diags as well. In my sigcap script, I scan input devices searching for the "zforce" touchscreen device, so it works on both main and diags.
