Superpowered is not a plugin, it is a library.
First you need to know JNI because android is mainly programed in Java and Superpowered is in C++, so you are going to need the JNI interface (is not really complex but you need your time to learn it)
Few months ago Superpowered was linked with the experimental gradle plugin, and it was very easy to link Superpowered with your project, but now CMake is the "official" mechanism for compile C++ in Android Studio so for new user is a little bit harder, but also is not really complex, so you need to know a little bit of CMake to link superpowered with your project, here are some info
and also watch the examples of Superpowered for Android, there it comes how to link it, is a really good start.
then when you have those 2 elements you can start using Superpowered.
it looks complicated but it worth it.
