Junk Jack X's new update kicks off summertime sandbox gaming madness
July 23, 2014
Junk Jack X, the popular sequel to the original Junk Jack sandbox game created by Pixbits, has just received another massive update.
And I do mean "massive." Just take a look at the long list below of the new features brought by the update, which happens to be Junk Jack X's summer update.
Several of these features warrant special mention, as noted by Pixbits. There's a new summer-themed biome, a new Mayan-themed planet called Yuca, and a new activity in the form of fishing. The update also adds support for multiple players, enabling you to create and switch between as many players as you want.
