Thanks to everyone who reported this bug - I think I've found where the
problem is. If something interrupts the download of the content from
sandboxgamemaker.com, and then installation is restarted, Ubuntu will
try to unzip and install the partially downloaded file instead of the
full file.

The fix is currently migrating through Debian and Ubuntu Oneiric. Once
fixed there I'll turn this into an SRU for natty.

for now here's a workaround:

$ sudo rm -r /var/cache/sandboxgamemaker

You should be able to run "dpkg --configure -a" or install
sandboxgamemaker
