The theme for the upcoming GrowUP! Game Jam is....

【Ｍｅｎｄｉｎｇ】

We chose this theme because it can take so many forms! Be it clothing, household items, hardware, or even more conceptually such as relationships and trust; 'mending' can give new life to anything from old items to complicated relationships.

We are ALSO excited to announce or partners for this theme:,
