## Back to Angel City Career racing, rival respect, crew orders, tuning and pink-slip stakes — powered by OpenJuice, with native **Metal** on macOS and **OpenGL / GLES** on Linux and Android. The shared source follows upstream **1.02.7** and keeps the optional car, livery and career additions in one codebase.

## Get started **Bring your own Juiced game data.** The engine, port and mod packages use the original game's assets; the game data itself is not bundled. | Platform | Build the current 1.02.7 source | Earlier prebuilt download | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Android · ARM64** | [APK, import and controls guide](docs/android-port.md) | [1.02.5 · android.4](https://github.com/martin2844/juiced/releases/tag/android-v1.02.5-4) · Android 8+ | | **Linux / NixOS · x86_64** | [Native build and Nix guide](docs/linux-port.md) | [1.02.5 · mods1](https://github.com/martin2844/juiced/releases/tag/linux-v1.02.5-mods1) · Nix package | | **macOS · Apple Silicon** | [Build and package the app](docs/macos-build-and-run.md) | Current app validated locally; download not published yet | The race captures show the current 1.02.7 source. The older Android/Linux downloads predate these renderer and mod updates. Development builds vary by device; no frame-rate target is guaranteed. **On Android:** install the APK, import your `Juiced.zip` in the launcher and add optional mod ZIPs in **Mods**. **On desktop:** follow the platform guide, choose your game-data folder and enable the packages you want. The Mac's **Juiced Mod Garage** app launches the editable mod collection. ## The garage Choose a stock build or load the optional collection: **11 additional cars**, body-kit options, wheels, neon, driver photos and custom logos. The everyday-car packs include the Peugeot 405 and 406, Golf R32, Jetta, Outback and Volvos, alongside the Integra DB8, BMW E36, Levin AE92 and Ferrari.

Packages live in [`mods/`](mods/README.md) and can be selected independently. Careers are shared across mod configurations. Catalogue validation and save checks are documented; visual quality and compatibility still vary by asset. ## Android, in your hands Use a handheld's built-in gamepad, connect a controller or play with touch. Remap inputs, move the on-screen controls and resize each button individually. Touch controls can be disabled when you want the screen to yourself.

The physical Retroid Pocket 5 has been used for controller, import, save and renderer checks. See the [Android guide](docs/android-port.md) for setup. ## More ways to risk your ride Optional career additions include hosting pink-slip races with eligible rivals, crew pink slips and **Texas Hold'em** for you and up to four rivals. At the table, mix cash with a car title valued as money, preview the car you are pledging and hear the game's recorded character reactions. ![The optional career poker screen showing character reactions, cards, cash and a car-title wager with a 3D car preview](docs/media/career-poker.jpg)

## Under the hood The platform adapters use the OpenJuice engine and original game formats. Metal/GL rendering, SDL input/audio, Android imports and mod integration are maintained in this repository. All current platforms share the source on `main`. - **Build:** [macOS](docs/macos-build-and-run.md) · [Linux/NixOS](docs/linux-port.md) · [Android](docs/android-port.md). - **Mods:** [package guide](mods/README.md) · [Mac mod-app packaging](tools/mod_bundle/README.md). - **Engine:** [upstream source](https://gitlab.com/sidecr3w/openjuice) · [upstream releases](https://gitlab.com/sidecr3w/openjuice/-/releases) · [integration notes](docs/upstream-sync.md).
Validation and screenshot provenance The [3 November checkpoint](docs/native-effects-device-validation-2026-11-03.md) records 18 native GPU checks on both the physical RP5 and the Apple Silicon Mac, 730 Mac unit assertions, three Mac controls/reflection checks and day/night races. The Linux unit suite recorded 738 passes. These are targeted checks, not a complete career playthrough or a performance guarantee. The Mac apps were built locally, bundled with their non-system libraries and ad-hoc signed. Intel hardware and Apple notarization have not been validated. MSAA is not advertised by the native renderer; supported effect paths include SMAA, lighting, shadows, clouds and heat haze. Images are native runtime captures. The [image manifest](docs/media/captures.json) records their platforms, dates and hashes, including the earlier touch-editor capture. See [screenshot notes](docs/media/README.md) for details. The older `android` branch and historical releases remain available.
