DescriptionCanning Season is a cooperative multiplayer game created to build player interest in the collaborative food preservation process. The game is designed to be played on three or more network-connected tablets. Each tablet is a different step of the food canning process, and players must work together to preserve as many carrots as possible in the given time. This game was made by Raccoon Hands Productions, an immersive learning class at Ball State University. Canning Season was created for Minnetrista, a museum with historic ties to food preservation and the Ball jar located in Muncie, Indiana.
