nesio: It's the Mushroom Pickaxe, I think. I haven't found one yet, so I'm not sure. Also, I play on an iPad 2 and there isn't much of a difference between 1x and 2x for me. I make do with a lot of games on 2x, and Junk Jack is one of the few that looks great on both magnifications. I think they're planning to make it universal someday, though.
That's actually a developers-only pickaxe for testing, I am pretty sure. I would like if they made the game Universal, but ONLY if they add iCloud support. Sick of moving back and forth on games without the save moving with me.
Mushroom Pickaxe looks black and white checkered. There are also other pickaxes from other biomes as well to collect. This is the answer the developer gave me (@nesio and others) earlier in the thread about that icon in question: So it looks like we will be getting some different levels of TNT to use!
Oh! Pardon for my error. I did say I wasn't sure. I've found the Maya Pickaxe, but the rest elude me. I wonder if the explosives work on mobs, though.
Zombies! A quick update showing some of the work in progress artwork for the new mobs, the zombies: We hope you like it!
please tell me the zombies will move slow....i hit the bottom of my world armed with a wood sword one time and it was a problem. learned my lesson that night. that skeleton snake thing is fast.
Does this game have some sort of tutorial now? I remember the non-minecraft people complaining they had no idea what they're supposed to do with all the icons and stuff with no descriptions of them.
Yeah, it does. I never played Minecraft and had no problem though. It's really kind of straightforward, even without a tutorial, so long as your patience lasts for five minutes. The two key things are: you need to figure out right away how to craft torches and pickaxes (which help you gather stone). Then shovels and axes. But by now, these recipes are included in your initial crafting book, and there's also a tutorial.
I'm just the opposite lol. I first tried Junk Jack on iphone and was really struggling with touch accuracy with my big fingers. I now play on 2x on my ipad2 and it's playable to me now.
I really engoy junk Jack and I am about to take a a project of a giant snake going in and out of the world which should cover most of the world along with a few broken cities. But first i need to build up some supplies.
i love pixels. but the blown up look just didnt work for me. im scared to try this on the next ipad they release.(theyre talking full retina for that thing)
nesio718, about your screenshot - item called "monster pickaxe" ID-254. Unbreakable item, devs only. Will be fixed after update. But you can get it with hex editor. Cannot post more info, or i will be banned (users cannot post hacking/cheating info). Just use google, phrase - junk jack monster pickaxe
thanks for the info. im not into hexing or cheating my way through. i just wanted to know if there was something i havent discovered. im finding statue pieces as i scan the bottom of one of my worlds. different types of gems and even a cresent moon.
Open ipa with any zip archivator on your pc/mac, find files "treasures.png" and "treasures.json". Open .json with any text editor and read it. You will find ALL in game items. But remebmer - some of them devs only. Here is full list of items - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22981147/junkjack_items.txt
