Get the tiles off the surface, then scrape it as flat as you can. Use an antifracture membrane over the entire floor area, then set your tiles on that. Use a color matched caulk in the grout lines over the cracked areas.

Or, pull the entire mud bed out, using your demo hammer to slice the med at the shower curb.
