    My game keeps on crashing every time I try to open a world. Can someone help me? I have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen. (32 GB), running iOS 5.

    Oh No!

    It has appeared that I have encountered a glitch! When I started up the game on my iPhone 4 on iOS 5, I tried to sleep in my cozy bed, but it just stayed at nighttime and I couldn't move away from my bed! Also, it seems like the day/night time of day doesn't change- it's always daytime or nighttime, depending on where I loaded up the level after the update! Please, does anyone know the best way to fix this?

    In the description, it says they're looking into a problem with the day/night cycle. Dunno how to fix it, though.

    Some thoughts and questions about the update:

    Not sure if devs are here or on their own forums but hopefully they see this (and others too!)

    - brilliant and welcome move to take away the time on the zoom camera. I used it for planning purposes on where to explore next (darkened areas) and I found myself stopping the game until it refreshed sometimes. Worse was when you hit it by accident and wasted a zoom out! Now you can zoom out as much as you need to! Very helpful!

    - as already mentioned I got stuck by my bed, I was so eager to check that function out; seems like it will work well when it is fixed

    - how many new notes are there? And I also get duplicates - I don't remember that happening when I got my first craft book recipes. Every one I found was new back then.

    - Graveyard - above or below ground biome?

    - Are there new achievements? I had one pop up called Dumpster or Trash Collector or something to that effect but it isn't in the list of Game Center Achievements - I am still at 50/52 of that one but a new one popping up makes me think new achievements were added? Maybe cuz I looked at the achievements from the new button in game they weren't listed? But that makes no sense, they SHOULD appear from there at least!

    Finding lots of new things but not crafting or using anything yet - just fun to explore. Anxious to discover what some of the new items might be used for - like salt! Also happy I can make a proper roof now!

    As usual, great update Jack!

    Hi guys, we have just sent the Junk Jack 1.0.5.1 update.
    It fixes the day/night bug, among with other fixes and improvements.

    Let's hope that Apple will approve it faster this time :)

    Some of the bugs you have reported are now fixed in the upcoming patch.

    The Graveyard biome can be found in the surface, but you have to generate a new world to find it.

    Also the new achievements will now work with the next patch!

    I just found my first graveyard, actually. SO MANY MAGGOTS. And a wealth of all sorts of bones, which I hope hints towards necromancy or a similar feature.

    Hey great news! I was confused about the achievements I must admit!

    So is the graveyard on the surface cuz I went side to side in a new world and couldn't find it.

    This might have been answered somewhere in this massive thread but I am going to ask again, 2 questions...

    Will there ever be lighting that won't drip? :(

    Is there any way to protect our homes from mobs? Cows, sheep and snails are one thing, but having skulls and slimes in my happy happy home doesn't make me happy.

    Nice! I got my game to work! The game is awesome! But, it is still kinda difficult because I don't know how to craft stuff sometimes and I have to search the forums or the wiki, which kinda sucks.

    @andsoitgoes Do doors not stop mobs from getting into your house?

    nope! Never have. I was not impressed when I was in my upstairs study and a weirdo slime was beating me up as I reorganized my Monet :p

    That's stupid. Are there stone doors that prevent mobs from getting in?

    There's an alternative called the reinforced door.

    W = Wood Block
    I = Iron Bar
    Wi = Widget
    [W][W][ ]
    [Wi][ ]
    [W][W][ ]

    Also, I was wondering. Is there a way to drink "Bull?" Because I got it and I can't find a use for it. Also, how do I place roof tiles?

    As far as I know, if your entire structure is enclosed, the only way mobs can still get in is if you have inadequate lighting.

    Also, the Bull item isn't consumable; it's one of those miscellaneous items that Junk Jack has so many of. Small things like that are one of my favorite features in this game.

    By roof tiles do you mean the single ones or the quadruple ones because the actual block can be placed but one roof tile cannot be placed.

    Man, these explosives are laborious to make...I've been playing the update for hours without yet being able to make a single stick of BOOM.

    Still a fantastic update, even pre-explosives, though. Thanks guys!

    Oh, my, god the new mobs are awesome. The bomb-throwers are so creepy, when you can hear their bombs going off, but can't find them. Nerve-wracking~!!
