Mini Jam involves a required condition that is announced as soon as it starts to spice things up. Remember, limitation breeds creativity.

You get the theme early so you can plan ahead, Just keep the limitation in mind. This jam's theme is NEON. Remember, theme is purely inspirational and not required. Feel free to interpret it however you want.
