MAD JACK: BREAKDOWN SHAKEDOWN is an action comedy achievement-based puzzle game.

In a post-apocalyptic free-for-all desert wasteland where everyone still somehow has gasoline (a world not remotely like that of a beloved film franchise) Mad Jack's muscle car breaks down. Using only items from a junkyard, Jack must find a way to escape being stranded and continue his thrilling, heartwarming journey to his destiny (presumably somewhere else in the desert).

Features:
*Zany vehicles
*Fire
*Car wrecks
*Perfectly believable and irreproachably realistic inventory combinations ;)
*Rollicking rock music by @Eric Matyas
*Multiple ways to "win" or "lose" (but is this really the point?)
*Tons of achievements and inventory to unlock (this could certainly never be the real point, definitely not)
*One (1) playable room
*Breathtaking ultra-HD 480x270 resolution
*Endless hours of gameplay (if you decide to never stop playing)

The sense of humour is great, and the premise is well executed. I got to 42/55 achievement points and really have no idea what more to do. I hope the ones I am missing are actually stuff it's possible to think of trying. I must admit I got some by luck.

Nice work!

Hi, @heltenjon thanks so much for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it and liked the sense of humor.  :)

I think 42/55 is a very respectful score, as some achievements are indeed pretty obscure and take a lot of patience. Thanks for putting in enough time to get most of them!  :-D

If you're interested enough to give the names of the achievements you unlocked (perhaps in a hints & tips thread), I can give you the names of the missing ones as a hint.

Either way, thanks for the comments! It's great to know someone played it diligently!  :)

Now that MAGS voting is over, I've uploaded version 1.1.
-Minor bug fixes
-Minor GUI and text changes
-Improvements to the "randomness" of things
-Tweaks to some of the more infuriatingly difficult achievements

Same download link works. Thank you to anyone who's played it so far.  :)
