What’s The Theme?

The theme is "Inverted"

What does inverted mean? It means upside down, inside out, or changed to the opposite order or relationship.

**How do I incorporate the theme?**It's up to you!

Maybe the hero is the villain. Maybe up is down. Maybe losing makes you stronger. Maybe you need to help the evil skeleton. Maybe you control the enemies instead of the hero.

We want to see your creative side! Make something the judges wouldn't expect! You can interpret the theme however you like. It can be literal, abstract, narrative, or something unexpected. Originality matters more than making the most obvious interpretation!

What Is It?

Many different Scratch mods (featuring PenguinMod, TurboWarp, and more) will all come together to join a game jam! In a game jam, you must create a game based on a theme in a short period of time.
